A simulation model was used to study the interception of radiation and the potential for photosynthesis in structurally different forest stands at latitudes 400 and 600. The stands differed in leaf-area distribution, i.e. horizontally homogeneous canopies or canopies with leaves aggregated into individual crowns. The effect of canopy structure on interception of radiation and photosynthetic potential was studied by simulating variations in leaf area index, stand density and crown size and shape. The relation between accumulated radiation and photosynthesis was never strictly linear. This non-linearity was not very pronounced when averaged over one growing season. The relation was not affected by canopy structure or latitude. The properties of the canopy structure and incoming radiation determined the actual amount of radiation intercepted by the canopy, but the conversion efficiency between intercepted radiation and photosynthesis was rather insensitive to differences in canopy structure and in the properties of incoming radiation. |
