Hello All,

Does anyone have information on differences in water isotopes between 
xylem water collected from tree boles versus branches?  Also 
differences related to the location (high, low, sunny side, shaded 
side) of the sample collection?  We would like to sample branches 
instead of bole wood to limit damage to the tree, but have concerns 
about fractionation in the branches.  Thanks.

Lola.
