The authors present a new method to sample water vapour from trees in a cost-effective manner. The method can be applied in a lab, but also in the field. As many scientist are struggling with proper sampling method, I think this paper is worth highlighting.

Short summary
We developed a method of sampling and storing water vapour for isotope analysis, allowing us to infer plant water uptake depth. Measurements can be made at high temporal and spatial resolution even in remote areas. We ensured that all necessary components are easily available, making this method cost efficient and simple to implement. We found our method to perform well in the lab and in the field, enabling it to become a tool for everyone aiming to resolve questions regarding the water cycle.
