Methods

	Sampling Description 

		Gas samples were taken from 6 sq. cm sections on individual leaves.  These leaves were always sampled from the surface to about 2.5 m height and leaves were selected that received direct sunlight.


	Method Step 

		Description 

			The flux of carbon dioxide and water vapor was monitored from a number of leaves.  Fluxes were only measured once a steady state value was reached. This typically took about 30 seconds to 60 seconds to occur.


		Instrumentation

			LiCor 6400 Gas Exchange system equipped with a red/blue light source in the sensor head.


		Quality Control 

			Dataset is inspected by PI for QA/QC; standard validation checks for negative numbers, graphs to detect potential outliers .
