  5. Questions/discussion… 1. Should we divide plant into leaf foliar system (NPP, HTO foliar absorption…) and root system (rootuptake) ? 2. Should we consider starch metabolism within plants? 3. Should we consider other compartments in soils (microbiota, inorganic matter,etc.) and associated transfer processes ? 4. Consider following factors that influence transfer processes, such as : Air : PAR, concentration in AIR, temperature Plants : LAI Soils : texture, temperature… 5. Consider HT releases?
