The Uptake of SO2 and NO2 by Plants
Foliar removal of sulfur dioxide and nitrogen dioxide was measured in a closed exposure system. The purpose was to identify local plant species capable of removing appreciable amounts of these gases from the air. Seedlings of twenty-one plants were exposed to known concentrations of the pollutant. T...
