Abstract

This paper reviews the importance of ozone uptake through plant stomata in understanding plant response to ozone and discusses challenges in quantifying ozone uptake in forest trees. Uncertainties in spatial and temporal scaling of ozone uptake from the leaf to the landscape level, insufficient monitoring of ozone in forested areas, and tremendous variability in the composition and structure of forest ecosystems of the United States prevent the current use of ozone uptake in large-scale risk assessments and regulatory decisions.
