In this volume - using mathematical modeling - processes are described from the biophysics of the interaction of light with pigment systems to the mutual interaction of individual plants and other organisms in canopies and large ecosystems, up to the global ecosystem issues. Chapters are written by 44 international authorities from 15 countries. Mathematics is a powerful tool for quantitative analysis. Properly programmed, contemporary computers are able to mimic complicated processes in living cells, leaves, canopies and ecosystems. These simulations - mathematical models - help us predict the photosynthetic responses of modeled systems under various combinations of environmental conditions, potentially occurring in nature, e.g., the responses of plant canopies to globally increasing temperature and atmospheric CO\u003csub\u003e2\u003c\/sub\u003e concentration. Tremendous analytical power is needed to understand nature's infinite complexity at every level. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Agu Laisk\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1402092369\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781402092367\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Springer\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 07\/07\/2009\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 503\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 3.26lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 10.40h x 7.70w x 1.50d","brand":"Agu Laisk","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":48850335760639,"sku":"9781402092367","price":449.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/photosynthesis-in-silico-agu-laisk-9781402092367","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
