Measuring the Sap Flow of Eucalyptus Trees
We describe the design and implementation of Savia, a sensor network system for measuring the sap flow of eucalyptus trees. Unlike prior sensor network systems, which generally take a vertically integrated approach and build everything from scratch, Savia is built out of several existing sensor systems. The difficulties we encountered when combining these systems demonstrate why a vertically in...
متن کاملCarbon partitioning and allocation in northern red oak seedlings and mature trees in response to ozone.
Northern red oak (Quercus rubra L.) seedlings and trees differ in their response to ozone. Previous work reported reductions in net photosynthesis, carboxylation efficiency and quantum yield of mature tree leaves, whereas seedling processes were unaffected by the same ozone exposure. To further characterize differences in ozone response between seedlings and mature trees, we examined carbon par...
متن کاملAcorn Fall and Weeviling in a Northern Red Oak
In 2000, we determined levels of damage by acorn weevils (Curculio spp.) and patterns of acorn fall in a northern red oak (Quercus rubra L.) seedling orchard in eastern Tennessee. The mean (ISE) production of acorns among 43 selected trees was 5,930 rt 586 acorns per tree with a maximum production level of 16,969 acorns for one tree. Trees were selected in the spring of 2000 based on abundance ...
متن کاملDendrochronological parameters of northern red oak (Quercus rubra L. (Fagaceae)) infested with red oak borer (Enaphalodes rufulus (Haldeman) (Coleoptera: Cerambycidae))
Oak-dominated forests in northwestern Arkansas have recently experienced an oak mortality event associated with an unprecedented outbreak of a native insect, the red oak borer, Enaphalodes rufulus (Haldeman). To determine whether prior drought was associated with increased E. rufulus infestation level of Quercus rubra L. trees, we employed a suite of dendrochronological measurements from Q. rub...
متن کاملA physical analysis of sap flow dynamics in trees
The aim of this thesis was to analyze the water dynamics of trees by using a dynamic modeling approach. The work is of cross-disciplinary nature: tree water issues which is a subject of whole plant physiology is examined by means of physics. From physical principles five different models were derived. First, to study the sap flow and the water pressure dynamics in the xylem of tree stem, the ef...
