1 EFFECTS OF ENVIRONMENTAL CONDITIONS ON СО 2 / Н 2 О EXCHANGE OF BETULA SPECIES IN THE TAIGA ZONE OF NORTH-WEST RUSSIA Pridacha V.B. 1, Sazonova Т.А. 1, Оlchev А.V. 2 1 Forest Research Institute of Karelian Research Center of RAS, Petrozavodsk, Russia (pridacha@krc.karelia.ru) 2 Severtsov Institute of Ecology and Evolution of RAS, Moscow, Russia (aoltche@gmail.com)
2 Objectives The main goal of the study is to describe the interspecific features of CO 2 /H 2 O exchange of different birch (Betula) species growing in forests of Republic of Karelia as well as to estimate the sensitivity of photosynthesis and respiration rate of the trees to change of ambient conditions.
3 Material and methods Measurements of leaf photosynthesis, respiration and stomatal conductance of Betula pendula Roth and Betula pubescens Ehrh. were provided using the portable photosynthesis system LI-COR 6400XT (Li-Cor Inc., USA) on the experimental plots of the Forest research Institute of Karelian Research Center of RAS in Karelia, Russia (61 45 N, Е)
4 LI-COR 6400XT allows to provide the measurements of photosynthesis and respiration rates of individual leaves at various PAR, temperatures, humidity and concentration of СО 2 in the measuring chamber. During the field campaigns in the CO 2 and light response curves of photosynthesis of leaves under different air temperatures as well as the temperature response functions of dark respiration (Rd) of the leaves of different species were estimated.
5 Results The method suggested by Sharkey et al (2007) was used to estimate the maximal velocity of Rubisco for carboxylation (Vc max ), the rate of electron transport at light saturation (J max ), photorespiratory compensation point as well as the rate of use of triose phosphates (TPU) that characterizes the availability of internal inorganic phosphates (Ci) in leaves for Calvin s cycle. The temperature dependences of Vc max, J max and TPU were estimated using the statistical analysis of Vc max and J max data set using equations suggested by Medlin et al (2002). Temperature dependence function of TPU was derived using algorithm proposed by Sharkey et al (2007). A min A, A, A R l V J P l A V A J AP * Ci VC MAX C K 1 O K * J C i * 4 C 2 3TPU i c i o i

Preliminary estimates of Vc max, J max and TPU were derived from the temperature relations for the selected reference temperature of 25 С. The results of field measurements show a relatively weak differences among Vc max, J max, TPU and Rd for B. pendula and B. pubescens trees (for leaf temperature T = 25 o C).
7 The analysis of nitrogen influence on Н 2 О and СО 2 exchange in the leaf of B. pendula and B. pubescens identified interspecific distinctions under experimental treatment. When treated with nitrogen (NH 4 NO 3 ) both species demonstrated an increase in stomatal conductance (g s ), rates of photosynthesis (А) and transpiration (Е) in the leaf. In B. pubescens the increase in the leaf Е rate came along with an increase in the shoot water potential () and a decrease in the available water content (WCf) and saturating water content (WCs) in the leaf. The changes accompanying the increase in leaf Е rate in B. pendula were a decrease in of the foliated shoot and stabilization of WCf and WCs of the leaf. In both the control and the treatments the values of the leaf A rate, WCf and WCs were higher in B. pubescens. Table 1.

On x-coordinate the content of N in leaf, %; * no significant (p>0.05).
9 Conclusions The two species differ in their functional plasticity with respect to the mineral nutrition conditions. The results of provided leaf photosynthesis, respiration, stomatal conductance and transpiration measurements were used in the processbased Mixfor-SVAT model (Olchev et al 2002, 2008) to derive the possible response of CO 2 /H 2 O budgets of Karelian forest ecosystems to future climatic changes.
