Understory Microclimate

Understory Microclimate is a micrometeorological microenvironment occurring within the lower vegetative layer of a forest ecosystem, distinguished by its unique radiation, temperature, humidity, and wind profiles that are moderated by the overlying canopy and understory vegetation.
