Arguments

data

Dataframe

varnames

List of variable names

PPFD_lower

Lower light intensity limit for estimating Rlight (Kok & Yin)

PPFD_upper

Upper light intensity limit for estimating Rlight (Kok & Yin)

P

Atmospheric pressure in kPa (Walker & Ort, 2015)

C_i_threshold

Threshold C_i (in umol / mol) to cut data to linear region for fitting light respiration and gamma_star (Walker & Ort, 2015)

Value

fit_r_light_kok estimates light respiration using the Kok method (Kok, 1956). The Kok method involves looking for a breakpoint in the light response of net CO2 assimilation at very low light intensities and extrapolating from data above the breakpoint to estimate light respiration as the y-intercept. r_light value should be negative, denoting an efflux of CO2.

fit_r_light_WalkerOrt estimates light respiration and GammaStar according to Walk & Ort (2015) using a slope- intercept regression method to find the intercept of multiple ACi curves run at multiple light intensities. Output GammaStar and respiration should be negative If output respiration is positive this could indicate issues (i.e. leaks) in the gas exchange measurements. GammaStar is output in umol mol-1, and respiration is output in umol m-2 s-1 of respiratory flux. Output is a list containing the slope intercept regression model, a graph of the fit, and estimates of the coefficients. NOTE: if using C_i, the output value is technically C_istar. You need to use Cc to get GammaStar. Also note, however, that the convention in the field is to completely ignore this note.

fit_r_light_yin estimates light respiration according to the Yin et al. (2009, 2011) modifications of the Kok method. The modification uses fluorescence data to get a better estimate of light respiration. Note that respiration output should be negative here to denote an efflux of CO2.
