The Potential Effects of Hydrogen Sulfide Gas from Geothermal Energy Conversion on Two Plant Species Native to Northern New Mexico
Gonzales GJ. 1984. The Potential Effects of Hydrogen Sulfide Gas from Geothermal Energy Conversion on Two Plant Species Native to Northern New Mexico. LA-9984-T, UC-66e. Los Alamos National Laboratory. Los Alamos, NM
Two plant species native to the Jemez Mountains, NM, were exposed to different concentrations of hydrogen sulfide gas for various time periods. Following the procedure measurements were made of the dry weights and water content of the topgrowth, leaf nitrogen content, and leaf chlorophyll content. The plants studied were little bluestem (Schizachyrium scoparium) and mountain brome (Bromus marginatus).
