All,
Be sure you are not dealing with micromoles per second. In stomatal conductance, you can go from micromoles per second per m2 to meters per second. Of course there you are thinking about conductivity to one gas molecule, such as carbon dioxide or water vapor.

Thanks for the help. You confirm what I came up with through a more
circuitous route and several hours of web searching and a handy little
conversion booklet by Peter Eidenback (1991) Archaeologist's Pocket
Companion. Human Systems Research. Thanks also to Dr. M. E. Asadi for
his response.
