متن کاملThe impacts of reactive terpene emissions from plants on air quality in Las Vegas, Nevada
A three-part study was conducted to quantify the impact of landscaped vegetation on air quality in a rapidly expanding urban area in the arid southeastern United States. The study combines in situ, plant-level measurements, a spatial emissions inventory, and a photochemical box model. Maximum plant-level basal emission rates were moderate: 18.1 mgC gdw 1 h 1 (Washingtonia spp., palms) for isopr...
