It's probably either of Geology and Oceanography.
Geology is the study of solid earth which deals on rocks while Oceanography simply studies the ocean. For the study of deep-sea vents, it's probably more into geology while the studies of life on the deep sea is part of oceanography.
Transpiration is the process where water evaporates from the pores of
leaves. Because of the charges of water molecules (I don't know the
specifics), the evaporation of water molecules leads to others being
pulled up the xylem tubes towards the leaves - hence transpiration is a
necessary evil because it involves constant water loss, but is also
useful for providing water for photosynthesis, support of cells by
osmotic intake of water and cooling for optimum enzymatic efficiency.
Therefore as transpiration increases (which will be if temperature is high to cause more evaporation, windspeed is high to carry water vapour away and humidity is low so diffusion of vapour away from the leaf is more favourable), the intake of water will also increase because it is literally pulled up the xylem tubes from the roots to the leaves.
That's how I understand it anyway :)
I hope this helps
In ecology, climax community, or climatic climax community, is a historic term that expressed a biological community of plants, animals, and fungi which, through the process of ecological succession the development of vegetation in an area over time, had reached a steady state. This equilibrium was thought to occur because the climax community is composed of species best adapted to average conditions in that area. The term is sometimes also applied in soil development. Nevertheless, it has been found that a "steady state" is more apparent than real, particularly if long-enough periods of time are taken into consideration. Notwithstanding, it remains a useful concept.
and
Ecological succession is the process of change in the species structure of an ecological community over time. The time scale can be decades (for example, after a wildfire), or even millions of years after a mass extinction.
In areas with high winds and lower levels of moisture, the coyote brush hugs low to the ground surface forming a cover over dunes. The coyote brush is a plant growing in a chaparral biome being able to withstand extreme heat conditions. The coyote brush adaptation to its environment is one of the most unique characteristic of this plant.
