Other claims from this paper (14)
- Association Birch photosynthesis declined with leaf age under NF++ ozone.
- Observation Birch photosynthesis remained high during measurement under NF and NF+ ozone.
- Intervention effect Birch leaves abscised prematurely under NF++ ozone in both years.
- Intervention effect Birch leaf premature abscission under NF+ ozone was significant only in 1998.
- Association Proportional birch leaf shedding had a strong linear relationship with daylight ozone exposure above the stated threshold.
- Intervention effect Ozone significantly impaired birch leaf nitrogen resorption.
- Intervention effect The smaller autumnal leaf dry mass decrease under elevated ozone suggests inhibited bulk leaf dry mass resorption.
- Observation Birch nitrogen resorption efficiency under NF was 81.
- Observation Birch nitrogen resorption efficiency under NF+ was 73.
- Observation Birch nitrogen resorption efficiency under NF++ was 63%.
- Observation Birch leaf mass decrease under NF was 45.
- Observation Birch leaf mass decrease under NF+ was 36.
- Intervention effect Birch nitrogen loss through litter fall increased by 16 under NF+ compared with NF.
- Intervention effect Birch nitrogen loss through litter fall increased by 122% under NF++ compared with NF.
