Other claims from this paper (7)
- Observation Schefflera formaldehyde removal reached 0.677 μmol/m2/h.
- Observation Chamaedorea propionaldehyde removal was 0.526 μmol/m2/h.
- Observation Chamaedorea formaldehyde removal reached 1.440 μmol/m2/h.
- Association Aldehyde removal rate was significantly correlated with light intensity over 0 to 600 lx.
- Intervention effect Increasing CO2 from 350 to 1400 ppmv decreased Schefflera total aldehyde removal by 32.0%.
- Intervention effect Increasing CO2 from 350 to 1400 ppmv decreased Chamaedorea total aldehyde removal by 43.2%.
- Mechanism Authors proposed reduced stomatal conductance as an explanation for lower carbonyl uptake at excess CO2.
