Description

Many tree species are able to adapt to harsh environmental conditions in order to survive. The degree of adaptability can determine how long a species can survive during prolonged environmental stress. This experiment monitored the effects of flooding on the photosynthesis, transpiration, and stomatal conductance of three bottomland hardwood tree species: water oak (Quercus nigra), willow oak (Quercus phellos), and bald cypress (Taxodium distichum).
