Concepts

Physiological stress experienced by plants due to reduced water availability that can harm fitness by inducing leaf loss, reducing flower size, and decreasing seed production

Vegetative reproduction producing genetically identical individuals, characteristic of quaking aspen forming cohesive clones with limited spatial interdigitation

Growth of new aspen trees through sexual reproduction (seeds) or asexual reproduction (suckering from root systems)

Influence of forest canopy openness on understory light availability and bee community composition

Processing procedure to remove atmospheric effects from hyperspectral radiance data to estimate surface reflectance

Process by which plants convert light energy to chemical energy, with formula 6CO2+6H2O → C6H12O6+6O2
