• Vessel diameter and xylem hydraulic conductivity increase with tree height in tropical rainforest trees in Sulawesi, Indonesia (2010, background): “In the light of the ongoing debate about the factors controlling the hydraulic architecture of trees differing in height (Koch et al., 2004; McDowell et al., 2002; Meinzer et al., 2005), it is therefore essential to test the generality of evidence found in this study in a larger sample of tree speci”
• Up-scaling to stand transpiration of an Asian temperate mixed-deciduous forest from single tree sapflow measurements (2011, methodology): “Sapwood area was determined from sapwood depth and tree DBH based on the equation (Vertessy et al. 1995, Meinzer et al. 2005): SA ¼ a DBHb ð1Þ where a is a constant and b is the allometric scaling exponent, and both are species-specific coefficients.”
• Coarse root architecture of three boreal tree species growing in mixed stands (2008, background): “In general, for a given size of a tree, angiosperm deciduous trees transport daily much more water than the slower growing gymnosperm conifers (Meinzer et al. 2005), and therefore we can most probably assume that the same differences exist between the deciduous B.”
• Causes and implications of the correlation between forest productivity and tree mortality rates (2011, background): “Indeed, estimated whole-tree water conductance in a number of Panamanian angiosperms substantially exceeds that of Pacific States gymnosperms (Meinzer et al. 2005, McCulloh et al. 2010).”
• Environment and tree size controlling stem sap flux in a perhumid tropical forest of Central Sulawesi, Indonesia (2011, background): “Andrade et al. 1998, with tree height; Meinzer et al. 2005,”
