It is accepted that ozone (O3) effects on vegetation depend mostly on the amount of O3 uptake rather than on exposure.

Abstract
It is accepted that ozone (O3) effects on vegetation depend mostly on the amount of O3 uptake rather than on exposure. As direct measurement of uptake is unfeasible under most forest conditions, modelling is needed. There are different modelling approaches (e.g. diagnostic and prognostic models) which follow the electric resistance analogue principle. Unfortunately, these models are data intensive and implementation can be difficult in sites which are not designed for canopy-atmosphere flux studies. The paper provides an overview on modelling approaches, identifies data requirements and evaluates the actual chance for implementing a flux approach in the CONECOFOR PMPs.Pubblicazioni consigliate
