Prediction of the maximum annual degree of embolism for oak trees under past and future climatic conditions. The red line shows the embolism levels predicted with historical climatic data from a nearby weather station. The vertical red bars represent years with above average embolism and correspond to exceptionally dry events. The other lines show projections of embolism levels based on future climatic scenarios. The line represents 20 years running means, with SE. The correlation between the average daily VPD during the summer period and the modelled PLC is shown in the insert
