Earlier in September this year the LEMONTREE<\/a> Project hosted the second iteration of the Energy Partitioning Workshop (you can read about the first meeting of the consortium here<\/a>).<\/p>\n

The LEMONTREE Energy Partitioning Workshops aim to develop a better understanding of how plant pigments could transform the way we monitor Earth from space. The workshops bring together experts in remote sensing, ecosystem variability, canopy and leaf level processes, and those that work at the cellular scale.<\/p>\n

This year the workshop focused on bringing together these scientists to push forward our knowledge on linking satellite observations of solar induced florescence with fundamental leaf level processes.<\/p>\n

The workshop was opened by Catherine Morfopoulos who outlined the goals for the workshop.<\/p>\n

We then heard from three scientists on <\/span>linking photosynthesis to ecosystem-scale processes. <\/span>The day ended with breakout groups, mixing disciplines to identify the \u201cbig challenges\u201d around solar-induced fluorescence (SIF).<\/span><\/p>\n

On day 2 of the workshop the talks focused directly on SIF, ways of remotely sensing SIF, and how to link that data to various modelling approaches. The group then separated to address the questions what do we know?<\/em> and what do we need?<\/em><\/p>\n

Finally, the workshop ended with synthesising a potential review paper to summarise the state of knowledge on energy partitioning and photosynthesis. The group is now committed to finalising its data synthesis from last year, and to producing a review paper for the scientific community.<\/p>\n
