Prediction model for sap flow in cacao trees under different radiation intensities in the western Colombian Amazon.
(2021-01)
In this study, we measured diurnal patterns of sap fow (Vs) in cacao trees growing in three types of agroforestry systems (AFs) that difer in the incident solar radiation they receive. We modeled the relationship of Vs ...
