Investigating xylem embolism formation, refilling and water storage in tree trunks using frequency domain reflectometry

Trunks of large trees play an important role in whole-plant water balance but technical difficulties have limited most hydraulic research to small stems, leaves, and roots. To investigate the dynamics of water-related processes in tree trunks, such as winter embolism refilling, xylem hydraulic vulne...
