Fig. 6. Sensitivity analysis of the scaling method: The predicted response of radiation use efficiency (RUE) to average canopy specific leaf nitrogen (SLN canopy) for (a) three different vertical SLN gradients within the canopy (SLN_grad), (b) two different average light extinction coefficients (k), and (c) a combination of three different canopy LAI with two different SLN_grad.
