Calibration of thermal dissipation sap flow probes for ring- and diffuse-porous trees.
TL;DR: The results suggest that the original calibration of Granier is not universally applicable to all species and xylem types and that previous estimates of absolute rates of water use for ring-porous species obtained using the original calibrated coefficients may be associated with substantial error.

TL;DR: A unique decadal record of atmospheric CO2 from five sites with contrasting urban characteristics that show divergent trends in CO2 emissions across a city demonstrates that CO2 monitoring networks can provide insight into urban carbon cycle processes and provide policy-relevant information to urban stakeholders.

Transpiration and hydraulic strategies in a pinon-juniper woodland
TL;DR: The results highlight the sensitivity of this woodland type to potential climate-change-associated shifts in seasonal moisture patterns and demonstrate the utility of mechanistic hydraulic models in explaining differential responses of coexisting species to drought.
Sap flux-scaled transpiration by tamarisk (Tamarix spp.) before, during and after episodic defoliation by the saltcedar leaf beetle (Diorhabda carinulata)

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors used tamarisk data collected from 20 tamarisks during the 2008 and 2009 growing seasons (May-October) in southeastern Utah to investigate the impacts of the saltcedar leaf beetle on water use and subsequent water cycling.

Evaluation of centrifugal methods for measuring xylem cavitation in conifers, diffuse‐ and ring‐porous angiosperms
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors compare the spin method and gravity-induced head to measure the loss of hydraulic conductivity in xylem by cavitation in a conifer, four diffuse-porous, and four ringporous species.
