Excited to share our paper with Anna Gardner and @florianabusch.bsky.social in Plant Ecophysiology!🌿

We review challenges in interpreting plant stress responses using gas exchange data, offer solutions to improve accuracy and discuss gaps in our current knowledge.

🌿Light > CO₂ for Stomata! 🌞

📊New meta-analysis shows stomatal density responds 2X stronger to light than CO₂ (94% consistent). Paleo-CO₂ estimates may need rethinking—fossil leaves' light history matters.

This review explores challenges in measuring leaf gas exchange under abiotic stress, with errors from stomatal closure, cuticular flux and assumption bias. It also discusses strategies to improve accuracy.

This review examines how abiotic factors affect stomatal density. Light and temperature show strong, consistent effects, while CO₂ responses are weak and variable, limiting paleo-CO₂ reconstruction. 🌿
