New sensors for measuring stem water content
New sensors (Decagon GS3) have been installed by Roberto Salomon from Ghent Universtity in order to measure continuously the wood water content in the stem of trees subjected to the partial rainfall exclusion. These sensors, which are modified and specifically calibrated soil water content sensors, will help to further understand the role of stem water …

Electrical Resistance Tomography measurements. September 13, 2016
Electrical resistance tomography has been measured at the peak of summer drought on the 13th of September. A 62 meters long transect was set up with electrodes that will re-used for repeated measurements during wetter periods (Project ECCOREV CARE, Guillaume Simioni and Simon Carrière, INRA Avignon). Des mesures de résistivité électrique du sol (Electrical Resistance …

Exceptional weather of late summer 2016 breaks two records
The late summer 2016 in Puéchabon will be remembered as exceptional for breaking two historical records in the data series of the experimental site. The most intense tree water stress ever measured at the site and the most intense rainfall event ever recorded happened both within one week. The predawn leaf water potential of Quercus …
