🌳 Xylem Sap Ascent Lab: Cohesion-Tension, Cavitation and the Embolism Vulnerability Curve in a Drying Tree - 2D Lab
2D xylem lab: cohesion-tension potential profile with gravity and friction, Hagen-Poiseuille vessels, Weibull vulnerability curve, embolism cascade, stomatal control and supply-demand curve.
⚙ Under the hood
Water is pulled up a tree under tension: integrate the xylem pressure profile with gravity, Hagen-Poiseuille vessel conductance and air-seeding cavitation, watch embolism spread down a drought, and read the supply curve, critical transpiration and hydraulic failure.
