Investigating the Relationship Between Sapwood Density and Sapwood Capacitance Within the Hydraulic Pipeline Paradigm [PDF]
As the earth's climate continues to change, forests within a diverse set of biomesare experiencing increasingly frequent, severe, and longer periods of drought stress.The continued rise of global temperatures could radically alter the composition and structure of forests in many regions (Van Mantgem, 2007).

Sapwood area leaf area relationships for coast redwood [PDF]
Coast redwood (Sequoia sempervirens (D. Don) Endl.) trees in different canopy strata and crown positions were sampled to develop relationships between sapwood cross-sectional area and projected leaf area. Sampling occurred during the summers of 2000 and 2001 and covered tree heights ranging from 7.7 to 45.2 m and diameters at breast height ranging ...

Extractives elucidation of Taiwania cryptomerioides sapwood [PDF]
AbstractTaiwania (Taiwania cryptomerioides Hayata) has long been regarded as a living fossil from the Tertiary period of Mesozoic Era for its distinguished yellowish-red color with purplish-pink streaks presented in its heartwood. With this elegant appearance that matches the color “red” for good fortune in the Taiwanese culture, Taiwania is supposed ...

Daily variations of water use with vapor pressure deficit in a plantation of I214 poplars. [PDF]
Daily rates of whole tree water use were measured in a homogeneous 7-year-old plantation over 84 days. Two trees were selected in the two most contrasting ends, i.e., with mean water table at -1.5 m and -3.5 m. Results showed that the mean tree water use
