In forests, vegetation is a major factor in the hydrological cycle. Even though the studies of transpiration has been
developed, transpiration in trees is still difficult to measure under natural conditions due to canopy heterogeneity,
topography, and large size of trees of forest stands. In this study, transpiration was measured by using sap flow
measurement, Thermal Diccipation Probe (TDP), first proposed by Granier (1985) in Gwangneung Research
Forest, Pocheon-gun, Gyeonggi-do. Average estimated stand transpiration from measuring sap flow was
1.31mm/day (Maximum value : 2.31mm/day) in May and June. We compared this average stand transpiration with
the simulated transpiration by eco-hydrological model, RHESSys (Regional Hydrologic Ecological Simulation
System). As a result, we found simulated transpiration was highly overestimated. Thus, sap flow measurement
has been underestimated transpiration relatively. This difference is possibly caused by scaling up the value from
point to tree and stand level.
