Diurnal and phenological variations of O₃ and CO₂ fluxes of rice canopy exposed to different O₃ concentrations

A dynamic chamber system was designed to measure simultaneously the diurnal and phenological canopy ozone (O₃) and carbon dioxide (CO₂) fluxes in the paddy field under different O₃ concentrations (0, 40, 80 and 120 nmol mol⁻¹). On the diurnal timescale, a decreasing trend of canopy O₃ flux was obser...

Description
Summary:A dynamic chamber system was designed to measure simultaneously the diurnal and phenological canopy ozone (O₃) and carbon dioxide (CO₂) fluxes in the paddy field under different O₃ concentrations (0, 40, 80 and 120 nmol mol⁻¹). On the diurnal timescale, a decreasing trend of canopy O₃ flux was observed from morning to evening and the O₃ flux increased with increasing O₃ concentration, while canopy CO₂ flux generally followed the track of photosynthetic active radiation, with higher values at noon except at the end of the growing season when rice was senescent. The constant CO₂ flux among different O₃ treatments in this experiment suggested that the photosynthesis of the rice canopy was not affected by short-duration (ca. 10 min) O₃ exposure of elevated concentration. The daily mean O₃ and CO₂ fluxes increased with rice growth until the dough stage and the late jointing stage, respectively, then decreased with rice aging. The peak values of O₃ flux appeared later than those of CO₂ flux because the latter was closely synchronized with the leaf area index of the rice canopy. Diurnal mean canopy O₃ flux varied from 18.7 to 43.3 nmol m⁻² s⁻¹, and nocturnal mean canopy O₃ flux varied from 2.7 to 17.8 nmol m⁻² s⁻¹ and from 7.0 to 25.4 nmol m⁻² s⁻¹ for the 40 and 80 nmol mol⁻¹ O₃ treatments, respectively. The considerable amount of nocturnal O₃ flux indicated a significant contribution of non-stomatal factors to canopy O₃ uptake. The adjusted Jarvis multiplicative models were used and well parameterized to fit the measured O₃ and CO₂ fluxes of our rice cultivar from environmental variables. Although more validation work is needed, the present results suggest that the models can be considered as a tool for canopy flux predictions in the paddy field.
