Sumario:The high ambient ozone concentrations cause impairing effects on vegetation leading to plant injuries. The potential ozone uptake to vegetation through open stomata can be quantified using stomatal conductance measurements under the local environmental conditions. This study compares the ozone stomatal conductance to vegetation obtained with a modified Jarvis formula adopted from the Vegetation Manual of United Nations Economic Commission for Europe, and experimental field measurements’ data. The stomatal conductance was measured by a portable photosynthesis and gas exchange analyzer system LiCOR6400. The measurements were performed in the submontane environment of the High Tatra Mountains in Slovakia on Swiss pine (<i>Pinus cembra</i>), as a native species of the local flora. According to previous studies, Swiss pine is considered as an ozone-sensitive species. The modified Jarvis model for the ozone stomatal conductance is compared with the field measurements. The suitable parameterization of the modified Jarvis model for Swiss pine is obtained. The parameterization of stomatal conductance for Swiss pine in the local environment would help understand its specificity and similarity to other conifer species. In the case of using parameterization for a boreal coniferous from the Vegetation Manual of the International Cooperative Programme on Effects of Air Pollution on Natural Vegetation and Crops, validation of the model with the measurements without temperature adjustment of the conifer chamber achieved a coefficient of determination of <inline-formula><math xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" display="inline"><semantics><mrow><msup><mi>R</mi><mn>2</mn></msup><mo>=</mo><mn>0.75</mn></mrow></semantics></math></inline-formula>. This result is not in contradiction with the previous researches. With the optimal set of parameters, obtained in this paper, the Jarvis model reaches <inline-formula><math xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1998/Math/MathML" display="inline"><semantics><mrow><msup><mi>R</mi><mn>2</mn></msup><mo>=</mo><mn>0.85</mn></mrow></semantics></math></inline-formula>. The data suggest that Jarvis-type models with appropriate parameterization are applicable for stomatal conductance estimation for <i>Pinus cembra</i> when the measurements do not modify the temperature regime.
