Methods & Sampling

Rates of net photosynthesis (Pn) and respiration (R) were assessed at 0 and 250 mmol quanta m22 s21 on five nubbins per treatment in 50 ml glass chambers. Chambers were equipped with a Unisense optode (oxygen-sensitive minisensor) connected to the OXY-4 software (Chanel fibreoptic oxygen meter, Presens, Regensburg, Germany). Pn and R were calculated by regressing oxygen flux against time, and were corrected by control incubation performed with empty chambers.

See Comeau et al. (2017) for a detailed overview of the methodology.

BCO-DMO Data Manager Processing Notes:
* Data submitted as sheet "Photosynthesis" in original excel file "comeau et al. 2017_proceedings_data.xlsx" exported as csv with the formatting that was set in Excel.
* added a conventional header with dataset name, PI name, version date
* modified parameter names to conform with BCO-DMO naming conventions: only A-Za-z0-9 and underscore allowed. Can not start with a number. (spaces, +, and - changed to underscores).
