Our novel framework highlights the dynamic role of stem #water #storage in modulating water potentials during #drought and demonstrates the importance of explicitly considering temporal stem water storage dynamics when assessing tree water-use strategies. onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1111/...

Quantifying Dynamic Changes in Stem Storage‐Water Use and Rehydration in Mature Trees: A Study on <i>Pinus sylvestris</i> Trees Exposed to Increased Atmospheric and Soil Drought
Rehydration dynamics of stem tissues after daily water-loss, via transpiration, is critical but infrequently quantified. In Pinus sylvestris, using our novel method, we found that stored water in the...
