Leaf Longevity as a Normalization Constant in Allometric Predictions of Plant Production

In metabolic scaling theory the size-dependence of plant processes is described by a power function of form Y=Y (o) M (θ) where Y is a characteristic such as plant productivity that changes with plant size (M) raised to the θ (th) power and Y (o) is a normalization constant that adjusts the general...
