The main principle in functional-structural plant models (FSPMs) is the interaction between plant structure and eco-physiology. One aspect where the structure is of special importance is the complex calculation of light distribution in a plant which is in many models the basis for photosynthesis calculation. In this work we try to quantify the importance of geometrical traits for light absorption...
Taking digital photographs as a form of documentation while conducting field work is common practice. There is a wealth of digital photographs collected by foresters who are interested in tree architecture. These high-resolution photographs are two-dimensional representations of the tree structure. However, it is possible to exploit tools such as GIS (e.g., ESRI ArcGIS) and three-dimensional modelling...
We describe an ongoing project which aims at a better understanding of the development and functioning of apple trees by modelling them at several spatial and temporal scales. Dependence of growth and carbon allocation upon genotype, environmental variables (particularly, water supply), fruit load and experimental manipulation of carbon transport is investigated and simulated. For the required functional-structural...
