Tree hydraulics: how sap rises
Trees transport water from roots to crown—a height that can exceed 100 m. The physics of tree hydraulics can be conveyed with simple fluid dynamics based upon the Hagen–Poiseuille equation and Murray’s law. Here the conduit structure is modelled as conical pipes and as branching pipes. The force required to lift sap is generated mostly by transpiration or capillary action; we investigate the ef...
متن کاملSap flow measurements of lateral tree roots in agroforestry systems.
Successful extension of agroforestry to areas of the semi-arid tropics where deep reserves of water exist requires that the tree species be complementary to the associated crops in their use of water within the crop rooting zone. However, it is difficult to identify trees suitable for dryland agroforestry because most existing techniques for determining water uptake by roots cannot distinguish ...
متن کاملNeural Network Modelling of Optimal Robot Movement Using Branch and Bound Tree
In this paper a discrete competitive neural network is introduced to calculate the optimal robot arm movements for processing a considered commitment of tasks, using the branch and bound methodology. A special method based on the branch and bound methodology, modified with a travelling path for adapting in the neural network, is introduced. The main neural network of the system consists of diff...
متن کاملTree Model Simplification for Fast Interactive Rendering (sap 0254)
Although billboards are often used in representing trees and grass of natural scenes, they are only suitable for distant objects, which are far away from the camera viewpoint. Human visual perception can point out billboards under close examination of such objects. In addition, a moving camera viewpoint around the objects further takes out the realism as some billboards are often programmed to ...
متن کاملTree Species with Photosynthetic Stems Have Greater Nighttime Sap Flux
An increasing body of evidence has shown that nighttime sap flux occurs in most plants, but the physiological implications and regulatory mechanism are poorly known. The significance of corticular photosynthesis has received much attention during the last decade, however, the knowledge of the relationship between corticular photosynthesis and nocturnal stem sap flow is limited at present. In th...
