The applicability of the Pipe Model Theory in trees of Scots pine of Poland
In order to test the application importance of the Pipe Model Theory and to develop models for the share of sapwood in tree stems, a total of 114 Scots pines (Pinus sylvestris L.) were felled within the natural range of this species in three natural ...

A Mariotte-based verification system for heat-based sap flow sensors [PDF]
Determination of the accuracy of commonly used techniques for measuring sap flux density in trees often presents a challenge. We therefore designed and built a verification system for heat-based sap flow sensors typically used at stem level.

Scaling from single-point sap velocity measurements to stand transpiration in a multi-species deciduous forest: uncertainty sources, stand structure effect, and future scenarios impacts [PDF]
A major challenge in studies estimating stand water use in mixed-species forests is how to effectively scale data from individual trees to the stand.

Growth trends reveal the forest structure during Roman and Medieval times in Western Europe: a comparison between archaeological and actual oak ring series (Quercus robur and Quercus petraea) [PDF]
At some point in time, man has influenced nearly all forests in Western Europe. Most of the original forest cover has been converted to arable land and pastures, or has been cut for the supply of firewood and construction timber.
