Description: Notes on research by Nicole Schneider on water loss in L. glaucum, with photograph.
Canopy Size and Shape influence Evapotranspiration in Mosses are non-vascular plants that lack the ability to control water loss through stomata.  Instead, the dimensions of their canopy influences the thickness of the boundary layer above them (i.e. the unstirred layer adjacent to the plant surface) and controls evaporation rates.  To explore how canopy size, shape and surface roughness affects evaporation in mosses, boundary layer properties were evaluated in fourteen 4 to 23 cm diameter cushions of
