Canopy-top measurements do not accurately quantify canopy-scale leaf thermoregulation

Leaf traits and climate interact via energy budgets, enabling leaf temperature ( T leaf ) to depart from ambient air tempera - ture ( T air ) (1). When quantified… Click to show full abstract

Leaf traits and climate interact via energy budgets, enabling leaf temperature ( T leaf ) to depart from ambient air tempera - ture ( T air ) (1). When quantified as the slope β of T leaf vs. T air , three types of thermoregulatory behavior are possible: lim - ited homeothermy ( β < 1), poikilothermy ( β = 1)
