Red maple photosynthesis data

This study of red maple (Acer rubrum L.) characterizes photosynthesis, stomatal conductance, and water use efficiency in planted cultivars relative to wildtype trees. In the first year of our study (2016), we measured leaf-level gas exchange and performed short-term temperature curves on urban planted cultivars and on suburban and rural wildtype trees. In the second year (2017), we compared urban planted cultivars and urban wildtype trees.
