Ecophysiological process-based model to simulate carbon fluxes in plants

Carbon fluxes in plants have been subject to many modeling studies. The conceptual framework of models of carbon acquisition, allocation, and metabolism in plants are first introduced, together with methods to calibrate and evaluate the validity of the resulting models. The possibility to combine di...

Summary:Carbon fluxes in plants have been subject to many modeling studies. The conceptual framework of models of carbon acquisition, allocation, and metabolism in plants are first introduced, together with methods to calibrate and evaluate the validity of the resulting models. The possibility to combine different models within an integrated plant-organ system is illustrated. In the last part of the chapter, methods used to measure the carbon flows at the plant scale are discussed.
