Since air pollution has been linked to a plethora of human health problems, strategies to improve air quality are indispensable. Despite the complexity in composition of air pollution, phytoremediation was shown to be effective in cleaning air. Plants are known to scavenge significant amounts of air pollutants on their aboveground plant parts. Leaf fall and runoff lead Cited by: This book reviews current topics on plant metabolism of air pollutants and elevated CO2, responses of whole plants and plant ecosystems, genetics and molecular biology for functioning improvement, experimental ecosystems and climate change research, global carbon-cycle monitoring in plant ecosystems, and other important issues. First, decisions relating to climate variability, climate change, and other environmental problems require that we understand the impacts of climate, air pollution, and changing ultraviolet radiation on forests, agriculture, livestock, water resources, fisheries, biological diversity, and other critical life support systems.

It will ask questions about the history, composition, structure, and management of trees in urban areas. Data for this book was collected in 33 cities across broad geographical areas known as biomes.

Constraints and opportunities imposed on urban forest composition, design, and management. ABSTRACT Sincetwelve scientists representing several research disciplines — systems ecology, soils, plant nutrition, forest ecology, forest pathology, wildlife ecology, air pollution technology, and meteorology — have collabo- rated in integrated studies to determine the chronic effects of photochem- ical oxidant air pollutants on a western mixed conifer forest.

We measured whole-tree transpiration of mature Fagus sylvatica and Picea abies trees exposed to ambient and twice-ambient O3 regimes (1xO3 and 2xO3 free-air fumigation).

After eight years, mean daily total transpiration did not vary with the O3 regime over the 31 days of our study, even though individual daily values increased with increasing daily O3 peaks in both species. Soon after the discovery of visible ozone symptoms on tobacco leaves and Ponderosa pine needles, the air pollutant ozone was recognized to generally inhibit plant photosynthesis and growth 1'2 and to influence the likelihood of biotic plant disease.
