Controls on leaf stomatal conductances imposed by soil water availability and foliage acclimation to long‐term integrated irradiance were studied in a natural mixed deciduous stand composed of ...

(A). Light was absorbed by a leaf and reflected and transmitted from the leaf. The reflect light includes specular and diffuse portion, and this reflect light distribution can be modeled with BRDF (B) ...
