Evaluation of Granier's sap flux sensor in young mango trees

Influence of environmental factors on the sap flux density of mango trees under rain-fed cropping systems in West Africa

Xylem sap flux density (Fd) was measured, on a 43-year-old (mature) and three 4-year-old (young) mango (Mangifera indica L.) trees, using Granier-type probes. The relative influences of environmental variables were examined under well-watered condition. Circumferential variation in Fd was also investigated by placing sensors on the north, south-west and south-east sides of the mature tree. Sap ...

چکیده: یکی از دوره های مهم تاریخی ایران به لحاظ تأمین استقلال ملی مذهبی و حتی تأثیر آن بر فرهنگ و مذهب ایرانیان، دوره صفویه است. رسمیت دادن و رواج مذهب شیعه توسط شاه اسماعیل اول، یکی از مهمترین اقدامات این دولت محسوب می شود. بنابراین برای اجرای این سیاست، وی منصب صدارت را به عنوان منصبی مذهبی- حکو متی ایجاد کرد .این منصب از دوره ی تیموریان ایجاد شده بود ولی در اواخر این دوره اهمیت بیشتری یافت...

Misunderstanding sap ascent in trees

Trees transport water from their roots to their leaves thanks to an efficient but vulnerable vascular system. Assessing the vulnerability to drought of the xylem and its ability to recover from failure are not an easy task but recent findings demonstrate that, contrary to what is commonly believed, hydraulic failure and embolism repair are not routine in trees. Trees are amazing organisms. They...

Predictive models for radial sap flux variation in coniferous, diffuse-porous and ring-porous temperate trees.

Accurately scaling sap flux observations to tree or stand levels requires accounting for variation in sap flux between wood types and by depth into the tree. However, existing models for radial variation in axial sap flux are rarely used because they are difficult to implement, there is uncertainty about their predictive ability and calibration measurements are often unavailable. Here we compar...
