April, Webinar
- 15 de April, 2021
Abstract Biomass results from the accumulation of the assimilates produced by the photosynthesis. The efficiency with which the incoming radiation is transformed into biomass depends on two terms: the radiation interception efficiency (RIE) and the Radiation use efficiency (RUE). Its computation requires measurements or estimates of the total biomass, which currently is difficult to get accurately from high-throughput observations. This …
