Instead, healthy leaves conducting photosynthesis — whether it be boreal spruce or Caribbean pine — use various processes (the
cooling of water evaporation or the warming of tightly clustered leaves) to keep the temperature inside each leaf around 70 degrees Fahrenheit (21 degrees Celsius), no matter what external temperatures may be, University of Pennsylvania biologists report in Nature.
An important predictor of future ecosystem drought (defined as ecological drought in the Water chapter) susceptibility is the net balance of water gained through precipitation and water lost through evapotranspiration (the combined
effect of water evaporation and the transpiration of water by plants).
Appropriate amounts of lighting provide important advantages to your aquarium, including: The
reduction of water evaporation Assistance in maintaining a consistent water temperature Reduction of household...
