Responses of Stem Sap Flow and Diameter of Ailanthus Altissima to Soil Moisture
[Objective] In order to understand the water use strategy of Ailanthus altissima and to formulate efficient water management measures for A. altissima
we investigated the characteristics of sap flow and radial stem variation of A. altissima under four volumetric soil moisture content treatments[10%~15% (W1)
15%~20% (W2)
20%~25% (W3)
and 25%~30% (W4)] and their relationships with meteorological factors.[Methods] Thermal diffusion probes (TDP) were used to continuously observe sap flow
and radial stem change recorders were used to monitor changes in stem diameter of A. altissima. Changes in related environmental factors were simultaneously monitored.[Results] Sap flow was almost the same
and growth rate and variation of stem diameter were similar for the W3 and W4 treatments. Sap flow increased with increasing soil moisture in the range of W1 to W3
whereas the proportion of nighttime sap flow to total daily sap flow showed the opposite trend[W1 (12.3%)>W2 (11.9%)>W3 (6.0%)]. Variations in the stem diameter of A. altissima at the daily scale decreased with increasing soil moisture
but the growth rate increased accordingly. The correlation between sap flow and meteorological factors increased with increasing soil moisture content during the daytime
but decreased at night. Changes in both sap flow and stem diameter lagged behind solar radiation and ahead of vapor pressure deficit (VPD)
and the time lag between these two indicators and VPD decreased with increasing soil moisture
while the time lag between both and solar radiation was little affected. Changes in sap flow and stem diameter of A. altissima at the daily scale showed an inverse change pattern
and the changes in sap flow always preceded the changes in stem diameter
and the time lag shortened as soil moisture increased.[Conclusion] Changes in sap flow and stem diameter of A. altissima to soil moisture changes were closely related. The soil moisture threshold value at which A. altissima could fully utilize soil moisture was the W3 level. Therefore
the W3 soil moisture treatment is the most suitable irrigation threshold for A. altissima.
