Climate at ecologically relevant scales: A new temperature and soil moisture logger for long-term microclimate measurement
Climate measurements are needed at a scale at which organisms live and die. Currently
available climate sensors, however, are not well suited for long-term field measurements at …

Cold‐air pools as microrefugia for ecosystem functions in the face of climate change
Cold‐air pooling is a global phenomenon that frequently sustains low temperatures in
sheltered, low‐lying depressions and valleys and drives other key environmental conditions …

Nighttime transpiration in woody plants from contrasting ecosystems
It is commonly assumed that transpiration does not occur at night because leaf stomata are
closed in the dark. We tested this assumption across a diversity of ecosystems and woody …

What the towers don't see at night: nocturnal sap flow in trees and shrubs at two AmeriFlux sites in California
At the leaf scale, it is a long-held assumption that stomata close at night in the absence of
light, causing transpiration to decrease to zero. Energy balance models and …

Removal of nutrient limitations by long-term fertilization decreases nocturnal water loss in savanna trees
Under certain environmental conditions, nocturnal transpiration can be relatively high in
temperate and tropical woody species. We have previously shown that nocturnal sap flow …

Empirical downscaling of daily minimum air temperature at very fine resolutions in complex terrain
Available air temperature models do not adequately account for the influence of terrain on
nocturnal air temperatures. An empirical model for night time air temperatures was …

Atmospheric and soil drought reduce nocturnal conductance in live oaks
Nocturnal and daytime whole-canopy transpiration rate (E) and conductance (g= E/VPD,
where VPD is leaf to air vapor pressure difference) were assessed gravimetrically in drought …
