Washington [US], July 1 (ANI): In a global analysis of vegetation over more than three decades, Stanford University researchers found that photosynthesis the process by which plants take up carbon dioxide from the atmosphere- was primarily influenced by floods and heavy rainfall nearly as often as droughts in many locations.
The paper, published in the journal Environmental Research Letters, highlights the importance of incorporating plant responses to heavy rainfall in modelling vegetation dynamics and soil carbon storage in a warming world. These wet extremes have basically been ignored in this field and we re showing that researchers need to rethink it when designing schemes for future carbonaccounting, said senior study author Alexandra Konings, an assistant professor of Earth system science in Stanford s School of Earth,
