| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
In the present study, we developed a new method for evaluating the sensitivity of trees to ozone based on the results obtained from short-term ozone-exposure experiment. We developed a new measurement system of net photosynthetic rate and transpiration rate during the exposure of a leaf to ozone for several hours. Net photosynthetic rate of Quercus myrsinifolia and Quercus glauca was not affected, but that of Castanopsis sieboldii and Fagus crenata was reduced by the exposure to ozone at 300 ppb for several hours. These results were in agreement with the results obtained from long-term ozone-exposure experiment for evaluating the sensitivity of trees to ambient levels of ozone. Therefore, it is possible to evaluate the sensitivity of trees to long-term exposure to realistic concentrations of ozone by the new method developed in the present study.
