Abstract

Abstract

En 中文
• Radial sap flow regulation differs strongly between water-sufficient and water-limited stands. • Water-limited trees showed inner-layer sap flow restrictions and greater radial differences. • Azimuthal sap flow showed a weak North–South contrast but was dominated by tree-to-tree variation. • Sampling three orientations reduces transpiration estimation-error from 21.6% to 7.0%. • Accurate upscaling requires multi-depth probes and sampling more trees to capture variability.
