Effects on plants :
Controlled levels of pollutants were added for 103.5 h weakly,
clean air being given for the remaining 64.5 h. 
The
concentration of each gas used during 103.5 h exposure was 0.11
ppm. 
The treatments with concentrations calculated as weekly
means were (as follows) 0.068 ppm -> yields of Dactylis
glomerata and Poa pratensis were reduced.
