Long Lab

The Long laboratory is investigating photosynthesis and atmospheric change at scales from molecular to community the impacts of global atmospheric change on plants. This includes both natural vegetation and crops, and the means by which plants may be adapted to change or used to partially mitigate global change. Particular emphasis is placed on the impacts of rising concentration of both carbon dioxide and ozone within the troposphere.
