Cover Story: The leaves of temperate and tropical forest trees differ in shape (elliptical or otherwise) and margin (smooth, lobed, or toothed). Irregular lobes and teeth decrease the threshold for a transition from laminar to turbulent flow, increasing the likelihood that a leaf will fall over the critical root zone, mulching the tree roots. On the other hand, elliptical leaves having smooth margins which minimize self-shading in tropical forests and the understory of temperate forests, where trees compete most strongly for light. The evolutionary trade-offs are between competition for light and competition for water and nutrients. View this paper
