TY - T1 - Propagating ice front induces gas bursts and ultrasonic acoustic emissions from freezing xylem SN - / UR - http://hdl.handle.net/10138/323510 T3 - A1 - Lintunen, Anna; Losso, Adriano; Aalto, Juho; Chan, Tommy; Hölttä, Teemu; Mayr, Stefan A2 - PB - Y1 - 2020 LA - eng AB - Ice formation and propagation in the xylem of plants is a complex process. During freezing of xylem sap, gases dissolved in liquid sap are forced out of the ice lattice due to their low solubility in ice, and supersaturation of xylem sap as well as low water potential (Psi) are induced at the ice-liquid interface. Supersaturation of gases near the ice front may lead to bubble formation and potentially to cavitation and/or to burst of gases driven out from the branch. In this study, we investigat...
