Contribution of stem water storage to daily transpiration of three temperate trees in northeastern China
|
Abstract:
Aims Stem water storage plays a significant role in maintaining a favorable leaf water and carbon balance and minimizing temporal imbalances between water supply and demand.Few measurements,however,have been made on the daily dynamics of discharge and recharge of stem water storage,especially for Chinese temperate trees.Our objectives were to(1) examine diurnal courses of stem water storage of three temperate trees with different characteristics in Northeast China,i.e.,coniferous needle-leaved Korean pine(P...
