Relationship between natural abundance oxygen (δ18O) and hydrogen isotope signatures (δ2H) of bud water. This species-specific linear relationship between oxygen and hydrogen isotopes was used to retrieve the excess of label taken-up into buds (short-term water uptake). The blue line indicates the global annual average relationship between oxygen and hydrogen isotopes (global meteoric water line).
