Sap flow measurements within the crown of old-growth Quercus lanceifolia in a seasonally dry tropical montane cloud forest (Dec 2009-June 2010)

Heat pulse velocities were collected to study foliar uptake and night-time transpiration rates of Quercus lanceifolia trees using the Heat Ratio Method sap flow technique. The study area is an old-growth lower montane cloud forest located in central Veracruz, Mexico. Datapackages available are sap flow at the branch level (liters per hour from different branches) for three trees. Measurement period was a dry season and the onset of the wet season: December 2009 to June 2010. More details in: Gotsch, S. et al. (2013) Plant Cell Environ, doi:10.1111/pce.12151.
