This grant, offered by the U.S. Geological Survey’s (USGS) Powell Center, is for a CESU partner to conduct research on ‘Using a multi-scale approach to synthesize measurements and models of C4 photosynthesis.’ The primary purpose of this funding is to enhance understanding and representation of C4 processes. This project will involve synthesizing existing C4 physiological data, including measurements under various environmental conditions, to evaluate current C4 conceptual and numerical models. Furthermore, it aims to compare the present representation of C4 processes in numerical models with those updated by refined ecophysiological logic, thereby improving model accuracy and predictive capabilities. This research will contribute significantly to ecological modeling advancements.
