Abstract
•We developed a living-wood freeze-thaw detection (LWFTD) sensor.•The sensor detects liquid water and ice contents in living woody stems.•The sensor allows in-situ, real-time, and micro-destructive monitoring.•Physiological changes in winter can be measured based on stem water characteristics.•In the field, we found that ice content in the stem volume exhibits diurnal changes.
