VLA—Vessel lumen area; TVA—total lumen vessel area; PTVA—the proportion of the total vessel lumen area per analyzed sector; Dhp -hydraulic weighted diameter; RW—ring width; BAI—Basal area increment; VD—Vesel density; Ks—potential specific hydraulic conductivity; Kring—potential hydraulic conductivity for a growth ring; Vulnerability index was calculated after Carlquist [65].
↑—increase with eCO2;
↓—decrease with eCO2.
