Your code did not run on my computer, however the "atop" function should do
what you are looking for I guess. This is more or less your axis, only
changed a bit in your formula, think it looks better this way:

e.g.

par(mar=c(5,7,.5,.5), las=1, adj=.5, cex.lab=1.5)
plot(1, type="n"
    , xlab="Week"
    , ylab=expression(atop("Mean Respisration Rate",
umol%.%L^-1%.%g~(AFDM)^-1) ))
