Liquid-phase water permeation pathways on outer-bark surfaces of teak (Tectona grandis): a tropical deciduous hardwood

Abstract It has recently been suggested that processes related to water uptake from the tree-stem surface, such as water vapor exchange and rainwater permeation, have implications for forest hydrology. However, few studies have investigated stem surface water uptake itself, and the water permeation...
