| Course description |
| In this lecture, we (Prof. Takeshi Izuta and Associate Professor Makoto Watanabe) will lecture the effects of environmental stresses such as gaserous air pollutants, acid deposition, atmospheric nitrogen deposition, aerosol and global warming on plants. |
| Expected Learning |
| You should get the knowledge about the effects of environmental stresses such as gaseous air pollutants, aerosol, acid deposition and global warming on plants (crops and trees) and its mechanisms. |
