Root anoxia effects on physiology and emissions of volatile organic compounds (...
Bracho-Nuñez, Araceli; Knothe, Nina Maria; Costa, Wallace R.; Liberato, Maria Astrid Rocha; Kleiss, Betina; Rottenberger, StefanieVolatile organic compound (VOC) emissions are affected by a variety of biotic and abiotic factors such as light intensity, temperature, CO2 and drought. Another stress factor, usually overlooked but very important for the Amazon region, is flooding. We studied the exchange of VOCs in relation to CO2 exchange and transpiration of 8 common tree species from the Amazonian floodplain forest grown up from seeds usin...
Leaf level emissions of volatile organic compounds (VOC) from some Amazonian an...
Bracho-Nuñez, Araceli; Knothe, Nina Maria; Welter, Saskia; Staudt, Michael; Costa, Wallace R.; Liberato, Maria Astrid RochaEmission inventories defining regional and global biogenic volatile organic compounds (VOC) emission strengths are needed to determine the impact of VOC on atmospheric chemistry (oxidative capacity) and physics (secondary organic aerosol formation and effects). The aim of this work was to contribute with measurements of tree species from the poorly described tropical vegetation in direct comparison with the qui...
