Did you conclude "we still don't know exactly why plants aren't all black" after reading the paper?
- cortic 6y agoThanks, looks like the full paper is for paid members only, but i will look into this further.
- omaranto 6y agoWell, nowadays there is a very convenient way of getting scientific papers: Sci-Hub. I guess everyone should decide for themselves if they want to use something like that or not.
- cortic 6y agoI've skimmed the paper, its answered a lot of my questions. I think the article tried to dumb it down too much and skipped over some important information; Still not sure why the absorption points couldn't be uniformly widened by nature, but i will go over the paper more thoroughly when time allows, its very interesting. thank you.
