Main and interactive effects of ozone and other climate factors on plant gas exchange, biomass production and allocation: A global meta-analysis

Abstract. Elevated ground-level ozone (O3) is known to inhibit plant growth and development, but its interactive effects with other climate factors, such a

Some #insects support passive #breathing via tracheae through #active #respiratorymovements, nsmed #convectiveventilation. Muscle contractions cause motions that e.g. dilate the #spiracles, allowing more efficient #gasexchange. The same time, the process also serves #thermoregulation. My example, the #robberfly #Tolmerus #cingulatus, demonstrates this #behavior.
