Plotting Rates of Photosynthesis as a Function of Light Quantity.
Dean, Rob L.
American Biology Teacher, v58 n7 p424-26 Oct 1996
Discusses methods for plotting rates of photosynthesis as a function of light quantity. Presents evidence that suggests that empirically derived conversion factors, which are used to convert foot candles to photon fluence rates, should be used with extreme caution. Suggests how rate data are best plotted when any kind of light meter is not accessible. (JRH)
