Article Synopsis
- The study measured sap flow velocity (SFV) in two tree species, Quercus liaotungensis and Populus davidiana, in the Loess Plateau region during the growing season of 2012 to understand their response to environmental factors.
- Findings revealed that the diurnal changes in SFV were primarily influenced by vapor pressure deficit (VPD) and photosynthetically active radiation (PAR) in early summer, while VPD and air temperature (T) played a larger role in late summer.
- Quercus liaotungensis demonstrated a higher increase in SFV after rainfall events, indicating it has a greater water demand and is more sensitive to soil moisture, whereas Populus davidiana was more conservative in managing its
