Table 2 Results presented are scaled estimated means and 95% credible intervals for the deciduous trees for the period of maximum water content prior to leaf-out to a given number of days after leaf-out are shown.

From: Deciduous trees are a large and overlooked sink for snowmelt water in the boreal forest

  1. The non-bold values are the tree water volumes (m3) and the bold values are the percentage of the maximum tree water volume transpired. *minimum tree water content occurred 57 and 35 days after leaf out in 2013 and 2014, respectively.
