2. 1.Determine if the addition of N, P, or Ca has any
impact on sap flux in hardwood trees.
2.Compare sap flux amongst species of red
maple, sugar maple, and white birch.
Objectives
Experimental Design
• HB mid, 9 trees per plot, 3 per species
• Granier method
3. Previous Results
• Are we unable to detect a treatment effect due to
extreme tree-to-tree variability???
Con N P NP Ca
Daily Sum of Sap Flux
SapFlux(gH2O/m2sapwood/day)
Treatment
• C8
• 2017
• 1 observation point
per tree

4. This year…
• Covariates: diameter at crown base (DCB) and DBH
• HB Ca plot, last wollastonite addition in 2015
• Better drilling!!!
• Does anyone want to help move batteries into our HB plots?!
