A demonstration of the theoretical prediction that sap velocity is related to wood density in the conifer Dacrydium cupressinum

•  The theoretical prediction of a close relationship between sap velocity (v) and wood density (ρb ) in conifers was tested in mature Dacrydium cupressinum trees. •  Thermal dissipation probes were used to measure v during summer in 12 trees of varying size and the data were analysed in relation to...
