Abstract Stomatal O-3 fluxes to a mixed beech/spruce stand (Fagus sylvatica/Picea abies) in Central Europe were determined using two different approaches. The sap flow technique yielded the tree-level transpiration, whereas the eddy covariance method provided the stand-level evapotranspiration. Both data were then converted into stomatal ozone fluxes, exemplifying this novel concept for July 2007. Sap flow-based stomatal O-3 flux was 33% of the total O-3 flux, whereas derivation from evapotranspiration rates in combination with the Penman-Monteith algorithm amounted to 47%. In addition to this proportional difference, the sap flow-based assessment yielded lower levels of stomatal O-3 flux and reflected stomatal regulation rather than O-3 exposure, paralleling the daily courses of canopy conductance for water vapor and eddy covariance-based total stand-level O-3 flux. The demonstrated combination of sap flow and eddy covariance approaches supports the development of O-3 risk assessment in forests from O-3 exposure towards flux-based concepts.
