Direct (i.e., short-term) effects of elevated CO 2  on nocturnal  in situ  leaf respiration rate were measured in nine deciduous tree species (seven genera) in 20 3.5–4.0-h experiments. During the experiments, CO 2  concentration was alternated between 400 and 800 ppm (approximately 40 and 80 Pa of CO 2 ). Data analysis accounted for effects on respiration rate of the normal decline in temperature with time after sunset. The median response to a 40-Pa increase in CO 2  was a 1.5% decrease in respiration rate, with responses ranging from a 5.6% inhibition to a 0.4% stimulation. Direct effects of elevated CO 2  on respiration were similar among the species. Thus, the response of nocturnal leaf respiration rate to a short-term CO 2  increase was small, and of little practical importance to the accuracy of measurements of respiration involving similar changes in CO 2  concentration during measurement. These direct respiratory responses of leaves to elevated CO 2  would translate into only slight, if any, effects on the carbon balance of temperate deciduous forests in a future atmosphere containing as much as 80 Pa CO 2 .

Direct effect of elevated CO 2 on nocturnal in situ leaf respiration in nine temperate deciduous tree species is small
