Tell me what is the question you wanted to answer when you started this research.
The metaphor I like to use is the human body. We know that if we’re going to use U.S terms the human body operates around 97 degrees, and that’s our sweet spot for when our metabolism and our body works well. But when we get to a certain temperature, say 106 degrees, our body starts to break down… So the question we set out to answer was that: as a scientific community we didn’t know what those temperatures were for all the plants on the Earth, for the terrestrial biosphere essentially. And so what we’ve gone about doing, is defining for the first time a global temperature dependence curve for photosynthesis.
