[ID: 80] Profiling of the phloem isotopic composition along tree height

Theoretically, the carbon isotopic signature of the phloem content at breast height should represent the isotopic discrimination of photosynthesis of the crown, and provide a means to estimate crown mesophyll conductance. We want to investigate how well this theory holds true in reality.
