Fig. 3. Leaf area vs. observed average 24-h temperature at different canopy layers: (A) total leaf area; (B) main-stem leaf area; (C) basal-stem leaf area; and (D) apical-stem leaf area. Symbols are observed data, lines are trend lines estimated with regression coefficients in Table 5; observed data from individual canopy layers not shown to improve clarity. Common regression coefficients were obtained for the top and middle layers in (A) and the bottom and middle layers in (B).
