a Illustration of oblique transverse sections extracted from the C. camphora volume. Two types of oblique transverse section, with deviations of 10° counterclockwise and 10° clockwise with respect to the longitudinal axis of tree, were extracted from the C. camphora volume. Vector field plot showing the PIV output of the oblique transverse section inclined. b 10° counterclockwise and c 10° clockwise. The arrow color indicates the inclination angle (ϕ) relative to the oblique transverse section axis. Zones 1 and 2 are dominated by vessels with an inclination angle (ϕ) of 10° in left-handed spirals whereas zones 3, 4, and 5 are dominated by vessels with an inclination angle (ϕ) of 10° in right-handed spirals. Not all vectors are displayed to avoid overplotting
