- Observation Canopy height ambient CO2 varied from over 500 μatm at night to 350 μatm during the day.
- Observation Average 24 hour canopy height CO2 ranged from 390 to 465 μatm.
- Observation Ambient CO2 peaked before dawn and declined to 350–400 μatm by mid morning.
- Intervention effect High night time CO2 increased soybean net assimilation rate, growth, leaf area and biomass after 29 days.
- Intervention effect The high night and early morning CO2 pattern increased NAR in all three species.
