Fig. 3

Intra-annual dynamics of xylem size increase and aboveground woody biomass production during the 2015 growing season assessed through the cellular approach. Rate of xylem size increase, with isolated contributions of cell production and cell enlargement. Rate of aboveground woody biomass production, which sums the carbon sequestered by wall-thickening and enlarging xylem cells, and by the cell production through cambial division. Curves are mean for the seven spruce trees
