abstract = {Sap flux density of European beech and common oak trees was
determined from sap flow measurements in pure and mixed
stands during the summer drought of 2003. Eight trees per
species and per stand were equipped with sap flow sensors.
Soil water content was monitored in each stand at different
depths by using time-domain reflectometry (TDR). Leaf area
index and vertical root distribution were also investigated
during the growing season. From sap flux density (SFD) data,
mean stomatal conductance of individual trees (G(s)) was
calculated by inverting the Penman-Monteith equation. Linear
mixed models were developed to analyse the effects of
species and stand type (pure vs. mixed) on SFD and G(s) and
on their sensitivity to environmental variables (vapour
pressure deficit (D), incoming solar radiation (R-G), and
relative extractable water (REW)). For reference
environmental conditions, we did not find any tree species
or stand type effects on SFD. The sensitivity of SFD to D
was higher for oak than for beech in the pure stands (P <
0.0001) but the mixing of species reduced it for oak and
increased it for beech, so that the sensitivity of SFD to D
became higher for beech than for oak in the mixed stand (P <
0.0001). At reference conditions, G(s) was significantly
higher for beech compared to oak (2.1 and 1.8 times in the
pure and mixed stand, respectively). This was explained by a
larger beech sapwood-to-leaf area ratio compared to oak. The
sensitivity of G(s) to REW was higher for beech than for oak
and was ascribed to a higher vulnerability of beech to air
embolism and to a more sensitive stomatal regulation. The
sensitivity of beech G(s) to REW was lower in the mixed than
in the pure stand, which could be explained by a better
sharing of the resources in the mixture, by facilitation
processes (hydraulic lift), and by a rainfall partitioning
in favour of beech. (C) 2011 Elsevier B.V. All rights
