Abstract
Metrics
Extra information

The hypothesis was tested that O-3-induced changes in leaf-level photosynthetic parameters have the capacity of limiting the seasonal photosynthetic carbon gain of adult beech trees. To this end, canopy-level photosynthetic carbon gain and respiratory carbon loss were assessed in European beech (Fagus sylvatica) by using a physiologically based model, integrating environmental and photosynthetic parameters. The latter were derived from leaves at various canopy positions under the ambient O-3 regime, as prevailing at the forest site (control), or under an experimental twice-ambient O-3 regime (elevated O-3), as released through a free-air canopy O-3 fumigation system. Gross carbon gain at the canopy-level declined by 1.7%, while respiratory carbon loss increased by 4.6% under elevated O-3. As this outcome only partly accounts for the decline in stem growth, O-3-induced changes in allocation are referred to and discussed as crucial in quantitatively linking carbon gain with stem growth.
