Chronic O3 exposure × water availability: steady state conductance
Eighteen pots were distributed among nine cylindrical, Teflon-walled, O3 exposure chambers (Continuously Stirred Tank Reactors; CSTRs; Grantz et al., 2008; Heck et al., 1978) located in the same greenhouse. The CSTRs were aligned in three blocks parallel to windows with cooling fans to reduce location effects. One CSTR per block was exposed to each of the three O3 concentration profiles delivered as daily half-sine waves with peak concentrations at 1,300 PDT; 12 hours daytime, mean O3 concentrations were 4, 59, and 114 ppb. O3 was generated by corona discharge (Model SGC-11, Pacific Ozone Technology, Brentwood, CA) from purified oxygen (Series ATF-15, Model 1242, SeQual Technologies Inc., San Diego, CA). The flow rate through the CSTRs was one air exchange min−1; air temperature was 20°C to 35°C, relative humidity was 34% to 60%, and midday PPFD from sunlight was 1,275 mmol m−2 s−1 (Grantz et al., 2008; Paudel et al., 2016; Paudel, 2015).
