The relationship between thallus water holding capacity (WHC; from Gauslaa & Coxson, 2011) and permanent depression in Fv/Fm measured in this study as a percentage of the start values after a 7-d combined drying and light exposure (Inline graphic = 0.469; P = 0.005). Open symbols, the chlorolichens Platismatia glauca (triangles apex up) and Lobaria pulmonaria (circles). Closed symbols, Pseudocyphellaria anomala (squares), Lobaria scrobiculata (triangles apex down), L. hallii (triangles apex up) and L. retigera (circles). Each error bar (vertical as well as horizontal) represents ± 1SE (n = 39–40 for WHC and n = 19–20 for Fv/Fm) from each type of habitat (see Table 3).
