"The results show that leaf area, petiole length, and stomatal parameters have no obvious
linear relationship with altitude (...). The results also suggest that the
differences in stomatal density and stomatal index between sun and shade leaves had more influence
on paleoelevation reconstruction than that in other parameters".
