We are experimenting in a classroom, where space is a consideration. Your group will not be able to harvest all the grass in a 1m² plot. The raw data is added grams of carbon from a 15 plants grown over one week (7 days). You will need to convert this data into units of grams of carbon per square meter per year (g C/m²/yr). Using procedure A, and the data given, you take 15 plants from a 5cm x 5cm plot. Calculate Net Primary Productivity in g C/m²/yr. Also, suppose the grass continues to grow at the same rate over a 6 month growing season (30 days/month). What is the Net Primary Productivity
