Plants and trees photosynthesise. The equation for this is:
carbon dioxide + water (+ Light energy) = oxygen + glucose
CO2 + H2O = O2 + C6H12O6
The levels of Carbon Dioxide are lowest near a forest is becasue of the process above. There will be more oxygen in the atmosphere than carbon dioxide, becasue the plants are photosynthesising.
Plants use photosynthesis which takes in carbon dioxide and gives off oxygen.

Plants release carbon dioxide during the night time
No. Carbon dioxide is used for photosynthesis. The general equation for photosynthesis is C02 + H20 = Glucose and 02. Carbon dioxide is given off during respiration instead.
Actually carbon dioxide concentration increases at midnight and decreases at dawn At night the concentration is higher because plants take in oxygen and breathe out carbon dioxide at night so the concentration is higher. At dawn the concentration is lower because, plants breathe in oxygen at daytime and breathe out CO2 so the concentration is lower.
Plants play the biggest role in regulating the amount of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere. They do so by using it during photosynthesis and release oxygen.
The leaf surface has many tiny apertures called stomata. During respiration oxygen from the atmosphere diffuses into the stomata and then into the cells of the leaf. When carbon dioxide concentration in the cells increases, the stomata opens and releases carbon dioxide into the atmosphere.

Soil air has a higher concentration of Carbon Dioxide; plants feed on this and convert it into Oxygen during Osmosis, which is why there is a higher concentration of Oxygen in the atmosphere.
