- W1034467162 abstract "The Mediterranean-type climates can be generally considered a transition between dry tropical and temperate climates. It is generally accepted that they are characterized by a distinctive annual climatic sequence in which a hot, dry summer alternates with a cold, humid period lasting 5–10 months, from fall through winter to spring. The availability of both water and soil nutrients appears to be the major environmental factor affecting the nature and distribution of vegetation, and exerting the strongest control on plant productivity. Vegetation is characterized by the dominance of trees and woody shrubs with small, evergreen, sclerophyllous leaves. In any case, the photosynthetic performance of the Mediterranean species does not differ particularly from that of species from other biomes. Plants acclimate to decreased photosynthetically active radiation (PAR) availability within the canopy producing a gradient of leaves that are morphologically as well as physiologically distinct. Differences in photosynthetic capacity of leaves exposed to different PAR may arise from variation in both leaf mass per area (LMA) and differential allocation to photosynthetic enzymes as compared to light-harvesting machinery, both of which contribute to variation in area-based leaf nitrogen content (N). The results from this chapter show that the Mediterranean evergreen oak canopies and probably all other Mediterranean-type ecosystems are in some way nearly optimal because of nonuniformity in leaf N, and LMA improves canopy carbon gain. Plant–water relations have shown that drought tolerance and stomatal sensitivity are not necessarily related to roofing depth, to soil moisture resources available to a plant, or to the degree of seasonal water stress experienced by the plant." @default.
