Hydraulic Constraints to Whole-Tree Water Use and Respiration in Young Cryptomeria Trees under Competition

Hydraulic Constraints to Whole-Tree Water Use and Respiration in Young Cryptomeria Trees under Competition

Although extensive studies have focused on carbon and water balance from aboveground measurements, the link between the belowground and aboveground processes deserves greater attention. In this context, the aim of this work was to assess the bi-directional feedback between whole-plant respiration an...
