Porous media containing voids which can be filled with gas and/or liquids are ubiquitous in
our everyday life: soils, wood, bricks, concrete, sponges, and textiles. It is of major interest to …

Patterns, mechanisms, projections, and consequences of tree mortality and associated
broad‐scale forest die‐off due to drought accompanied by warmer temperatures—“hotter …

Medical imaging techniques are rapidly expanding in the field of plant sciences. Positron
emission tomography (PET) is advancing as a powerful functional imaging technique to …

Ecosystems worldwide are facing increasingly severe and prolonged droughts during which
hydraulic failure from drought‐induced embolism can lead to organ or whole plant death …

Synchrotron radiation computed laminography (SR‐CL) is presented as an imaging method
for analyzing the three‐dimensional (3 D) anatomy of leaves. The SR‐CL method was used …

Abstract An understanding of Lithium (Li) spatial distribution within the electrodes of a Li-ion
cell, during charge and discharge cycles, is essential to optimize the electrode parameters …

During shoot development, leaves undergo various ontogenetic changes, including
variation in size, shape, and geometry. Passiflora edulis (passionfruit) is a heteroblastic …

The void network and vascular system are important pathways for the transport of gases,
water and solutes in apple fruit (Malus× domestica Borkh). Here we used X-ray micro …

Background Characterisation of the structure and water status of leaf tissues is essential to
the understanding of leaf hydraulic functioning under optimal and stressed conditions …

Heat girdling is a method to estimate the relative contribution of phloem vs xylem water flow
to fruit growth. The heat girdling process is assumed to destroy all living tissues, including …
