A continuous stirred tank reactor (CSTR) system designed for plant gas exchange studies was used in the NH3 exposures. Ammonia was monitored with an analyzer that permitted real time measurement of atmospheric NH3 down to 5 ppb. This permitted measurement of dynamic sorption of NH3 at concentrations much closer to ambient levels than previously reported. Uptake rates increased with increasing light, temperature, and NH3 concentration. An inverse correlation was observed between total diffusion resistance of leaves and NH3 sorption. Rates did not vary significantly with repeated exposure or with changes in growth media N.}, number={3}, journal={ENVIRONMENTAL AND EXPERIMENTAL BOTANY}, author={ROGERS, HH and ANEJA, VP}, year={1980}, pages={251–257} } @article{rogers_campbell_volk_1979, title={N-15 DIOXIDE UPTAKE AND INCORPORATION BY PHASEOLUS-VULGARIS (L)}, volume={206}, ISSN={["0036-8075"]}, DOI={10.1126/science.206.4416.333}, abstractNote={ The sorption rate and metabolic fate of nitrogen dioxide, a major air pollutant, have been determined for Phaseolus vulgaris (L.). Sorption was determined kinetically by chemiluminescent monitoring of 15 NO 2 removal from the test atmosphere and directly by mass spectrometric analysis of nitrogen derived from the plant tissue. Sorptive processes were first order with respect to 15 NO 2 concentration. Virtually all of the 15 NO 2 taken up was metabolized. }, number={4416}, journal={SCIENCE}, author={ROGERS, HH and CAMPBELL, JC and VOLK, RJ}, year={1979}, pages={333–335} } @article{rogers_jeffries_stahel_heck_ripperton_witherspoon_1977, title={MEASURING AIR POLLUTANT UPTAKE BY PLANTS - DIRECT KINETIC TECHNIQUE}, volume={27}, DOI={10.1080/00022470.1977.10470545}, abstractNote={Available chamber designs and experimental techniques have not permitted a critical appraisal of uptake of gaseous pollutants by plants. This work describes an approach that treats this process from a chemical kinetics viewpoint; it has led to the design of a chemical reactor system suitable for plant growth and exposure, while meeting criteria necessary to apply the concept of a continuous stirred tank reactor. Use of the system to study nitrogen dioxide uptake by corn [Zea mays (L.) 'Pioneer Brand 3369A'] and soybean [Glycine max (L.) Merr. 'Davis'] under several exposure conditions is presented. The system provided precise data that were readily amenable to mathematical modeling. The concept of a second-order rate constant for uptake is demonstrated, which is shown to be independent of nitrogen dioxide concentration and leaf surface area, but directly dependent upon inverse total diffusion resistance.}, number={12}, journal={JOURNAL OF THE AIR POLLUTION CONTROL ASSOCIATION}, author={ROGERS, HH and JEFFRIES, HE and STAHEL, EP and HECK, WW and RIPPERTON, LA and WITHERSPOON, AM}, year={1977}, pages={1192–1197} }
