Research questions
i)
How do trees adjust their hydraulic system
over time in response to environmental
change?
ii) Can this plasticity be used for reconstructing
past environments?

Additional Product
• Hydro-ecological meaning of
xylem hydraulic plasticity
• New Phytologist commission some content,
such as Commentaries, Meeting reports and Tansley reviews.
Enquiries or suggestions about these or other types of article are
always welcome. ISI 6.516
• Biology letters publishes brief reports on scientific
meetings. A meeting report should begin with an introduction to the
field, outline the highlights of the meeting, cover major advances and
give the author's perspective on emerging trends and future
directions the discipline may follow. It must not be a blow by blow
account of every talk and every poster at the meeting; however, it
should strive to cover the whole meeting, not just focus on a single
session within a meeting. The report should be of interest to
scientists from across the biological sciences and not limited to those
who work within the same field. In order for the report to remain
topical, please submit it within 4 weeks of the meeting's conclusion.
The report ought not to exceed 2500 words. The report will be
reviewed by the Editor-in-Chief of the journal. ISI 3.651

Defining hydraulic plasticity
• What is hydraulic plasticity?
• How do plants plastically adjust their hydraulic architecture
under changing environmental conditions?
• What is the timing of the response and the functional impact?
• What is the organizational scale of the response?
• Which of these responses are permanently fixed in xylem?
• What are the different strategies for such adjustments?
• …

Hydraulic signal and uncertainties
• What is the (hydraulic) signal and what are the uncertainties?
• Are the adjustments permanently stored in the wood and
therefore adequate for reconstructing plant-water relationships
over time?
• What is the power of an integrated multi-proxy approach?
• How to integrate on-line hydraulic measurements with
permanent xylem architecture?
• When is the sampling representative?
• How can the signal be quantified?
• Which measures are more relevant?…

Workshop agenda
•
•
•
Interdisciplinary attendance with a state-of-the-art review from
specialists in the fields of tree hydraulics, functional ecology,
wood anatomy, xylogenesis, plant physiology and
dendrochronology
The study case will serve as a platform for an improved
discussion among all disciplines as well as for identifying
research priorities and recognizing convergence of interest on
key questions and promising approaches
Short presentation of analyses and graphs on selected data
 This format, will provide the basis for DISCUSSION. This will
lay the foundation for interdisciplinary collaboration and
synergies to promote the discussion, address primary research
needs and strategies, and subsequent funding opportunities.
