| description | In this paper are presented the analyzes of some morphometric properties,
leaves area stomata density and the intensity of leaves transpiration of
white poplar, Populus alba L. and canadian poplar, Populus x canadensis
Moench ‘I 214’ in populations at (1) flooded (wet) and (2) unflooded (dry)
habitats on the Ada Ciganlija river island during the growing season. Six
trees of each species from both habitats were selected, with similar height,
age and physiological condition. The morphometric analysis of the analysed
poplar species show that the type of habitat did not influence tree height
and trunk as well as the leaves area. However, crown width and trunk diameter
were greater in the wetter habitat. It was found that the intensity of
transpiration of Populus x canadensis ‘I 214’ trees had higher average values
(0,73 gH2Odmˉ²hˉ¹) than white poplar (0,68 gH2Odm ˉ²hˉ¹). Transpiration of
both taxa was more intensive on the drier than on the flooded habitats. By
analyzing the number and size of stomata on leaves of the investigated
Populus x canadensis ‘I 214’ trees, it was found that stomata are more
numerous but of smaller size on the leaves from drier habitats. It could be
concluded that both species could have impact on microclimate conditions by
increasing air moisture content and decreasing air temperature but Canadian
comparing to white poplar, slightly greater. Increasing air temperature is a
consequence of evident global climate change. Through transpiration plants
reduce summer air temperature indirectly, by increasing its relative
humidity. [Projekat Ministarstva nauke Republike Srbije, br. 43007: Studying
