Two concentrations of CO2 were designed: elevated CO2 (700 祄olmol-1) and ambient CO2 (400 祄olmol-1). The study results showed that the height growth of the tree seedlings grown at elevated CO2 increased by about 10%-40% compared to those grown at ambient CO2. And the water using efficiency of seedlings also followed the same tendency. However, the responses of seedlings in transpiration and chlorophyll content to elevated CO2 varied with tree species. The broad-leaf tree species were more sensitive to the elevated CO2 than conifer tree species. All seedlings showed a photosynthetic acclimation to long-term elevated CO2.展开更多
The biomass and ratio of root-shoot of Pinus sylvestfthermis seedlings at Co, concentration of 700 μL L-1 and 50 μL-1L-1 were measured using open-top chambers (OTCs) in Changbai Mountain during Jun. to oct. in 1999....The biomass and ratio of root-shoot of Pinus sylvestfthermis seedlings at Co, concentration of 700 μL L-1 and 50 μL-1L-1 were measured using open-top chambers (OTCs) in Changbai Mountain during Jun. to oct. in 1999. The results showed that doubling CO2 concentration was benefit tb seedling growth of the species (500 μL- L1 was better than 700 μLL’ L-1 ) and the biomass production was increased in both aboveground and underground parts of seedlings. Carbon trans formation to roots was evident as rising of CO2 concentration.展开更多

The seedlings were cultivated in open-top chambers (OTCs), located outdoors and exposed to natural sunlight. The experimental objects were divided into four groups by tree species. CO2 concentrations in chambers were kept at 500 μL-L-1 and 700 μL-L-1 and contrast chamber and contrast field were set. The results showed that the effects of elevated CO2 on NPR of the trees strongly depended on tree species and time. NPRs of Pin us koreaipsis and Pinus syvestriformis seedfings increased with the rising of CO2 concentration, while that of Phellodron amurense and haus mandshurica increased at some time and decreased at another time.展开更多

The main products were CO and H2, while acetylene and ethylene were also found in the products. Experimental results show that conversions of CH4 and CO2 could be higher than 90% without the presence of any catalyst. Effects of CO2/CH4 molar ratio and total flow rate of the feed gas on the reaction were also investigated.展开更多

Global precipitation is about 505×10 15 kg/a. Based on theoretical calculation for unpolluted air and measurement observations, we estimated that 100—270×10 12 gC/a are scavenged from the air by global precipitation. This roughly equals carbon emissions from volcanic sources or 2—6 per cent of current CO_2 emissions. An inventory-based estimate on carbon removal in northwestern Europe supports the above calculation on global scale. With increasing CO_2 concentration in the air, precipitation scavenging may increase.展开更多

The water use efficiency (WUE) of this species (11 -year old ) was studied on response to elevated Co, concentration at 500±μLL' L-1 by directly injecting CO2 into the canopy under natural condition in 1998-1999. The results showed that the elevated Co, concentration reduced averagely stomatal opening, stomatal conductance and stomatal density to 78%, 80% and 87% respectively, as compared to normal ambient. The elevated Co, reduced the transpiration and enhances the water use efficiency (WUE) of plant.展开更多
