To travel from the plant cell to the atmosphere, a gas molecule must Þrst leave the liquid phase and then enter the internal leaf gas phase. The apoplast (cell wall) is the last barrier before the molecule can escape through the stomata. During Þeld experiments we monitored the gas exchange (H 2 O, CO 2 , organic acids) of Quercus ilex L. leaves. The exchange rates of acetic and formic acid under Þeld conditions followed a typical diurnal pattern and ranged between!10 (uptake) and 52 (emission) nmol m~2 leaf area min~1 with the maximum around noon. Growth chamber experiments indicate that the emission is related to the stomatal conductance. We discussed the exchange rate of organic acids between the cell wall and the atmosphere in connection with HenryÕs law, and the physicochemical conditions in the cell wall. The evaluation showed that for apoplastic pH values between 4 and 5, 26Ð130% of the measured acetic acid emission based on leaf area could be predicted. ( 1999 Elsevier Science Ltd.

Karst, holm oak (Quercus ilex L.), and birch (Betula pendula L.). and some crop-plant species such as corn (Zea mays, var. Banjo), pea (Pisum sativum, var. Solara), barley (Hordeum vulgare, var. Igri) and oat (Avena sativa, var. Wiesel). All experiments were done with dynamic enclosures ßushed with puriÞed oxidant-free air, containing only low or controlled amounts of the two acids. SigniÞcant and light-triggered emission of both acids from all tree species was observed. For one tree species (ash) a seasonal large increase in fall due to early leaf decomposition was found. The standard emission factors (30¡C and PAR&quot;1000 kmol m2 s~1) given as (nmol m~2 min~1) for acetic and formic acids, respectively, were 8.1 and 29.7 (ash, autumn), 1.0 and 3.3 (ash, summer), 0.9 and 1.4 (beech), 0.7 and 1.45 (spruce), 1.9 and 2.4 (Holm oak) and 1.7 and 6.7 (birch). Rough estimation of global annual emissions range between 20 and 130 Gmol formic acid and 10 and 33 Gmol acetic acid. These numbers reßect a 15Ð30% contribution by forest emissions to the continental organic acid budget. As compared to the global total NMHC emissions low molecular weight organic acids are of minor importance. In contrast to the trees, none of the crop-plant species investigated showed an emission, but always a clear deposition of both acids. Both emission from trees as well as uptake by the agricultural plants could be related to transpiration rates and leaf conductances</style></abstract></record></records></xml>
