Sapwood hydraulic conductivity and leaf area – sapwood area relationships following thinning of aEucalyptus nitensplantation [PDF]
AbstractThis study tested the hypothesis that the relationship between leaf area (projected, or one‐sided) and sapwood area inEucalyptus nitens(Deane and Maiden) Maiden is affected by thinning treatment. However, no difference in the relationship between leaf area and sapwood area was found 8 years after thinning.

Radial variations in xylem sap flux in a temperate red pine plantation forest
Background Scaling sap flux measurements to whole-tree water use or stand-level transpiration is often done using measurements conducted at a single point in the sapwood of the tree and has the potential to cause significant errors. Previous studies have
