Close up of the newly installed sap flow sensors at Blackwater National Wildlife Preserve. These sensors were installed by EESC's Justine Neville and Ken Krauss of the USGS Wetland and Aquatic Research Center in Lafayette, LA. These sensors will be used to analyze how the trees in a marsh ecosystem respond to changing ecological and climatic conditions.

Sap flow probes will be used to monitor transpiration rates in coastal forests to assess the water usage of trees experiencing stress from inundation.
