Zhu H. Ning, Southern University, Baton Rouge, LA; and K. K. Abdollahi

The main objectives of this study were to a)Quantify responses of urban tree and shrub species to elevated atmospheric CO2 from 400 ppm to 1000 ppm; b) to compare vegetation responses to elevated CO2.

This poster presents the rates of CO2 uptake by many tree and shrub species in response to elevated atmospheric CO2.
