Nocturnal Water Loss in Mature Subalpine Eucalyptus delegatensis Tall Open Forests and Adjacent E. pauciflora Woodlands

Buckley, Thomas N.; Turnbull, Tarryn L.; Pfautsch, Sebastian; Adams, Mark A. (Ecology and Evolution, 2011)

We measured sap flux (S) and environmental variables in four monospecific stands of alpine ash (Eucalyptus delegatensis R. Baker, AA) and snowgum (E. pauciflora Sieb. ex Spreng., SG) in Australia’s Victorian Alps. Nocturnal ...
The Role of Bundle Sheath Extensions and Life Form in Stomatal Responses to Leaf Water Status

Buckley, Thomas N.; Gilbert, Matthew E.; Sack, Lawren (Plant Physiology, 2011)

Bundle sheath extensions (BSEs) are key features of leaf structure with currently little-understood functions. To test the hypothesis that BSEs reduce the hydraulic resistance from the bundle sheath to the epidermis (rbe) ...
How Should Leaf Area, Sapwood Area and Stomatal Conductance Vary with Tree Height to Maximize Growth?

Buckley, Thomas N.; Roberts, David W. (Tree Physiology, 2006)

Conventional wisdom holds that the ratio of leaf area to sapwood area (L/S) should decline during height (H) growth to maintain hydraulic homeostasis and prevent stomatal conductance (gs) from declining. We contend that ...
