To address this problem, this paper introduces CEEMDAN to decompose the sap flow sequence at multiple scales, combines Copula entropy and signal energy to construct a modal component reconstruction strategy, and further uses LSTM to realize prediction. Experimental results show that the proposed model achieves 0.6759 and 0.9755 in MAPE and R2 indicators respectively, which is superior to the comparison models, providing a new idea for sap flow prediction and transpiration flux estimation.</abstract><keywords/></article-meta></front><body/><back><ref-list><ref id="B1" content-type="article"><label>1</label><element-citation publication-type="journal"><p>Xie Z, et al., 2019, Climate Feedback of Human Water Use Activities and Its Impact on Terrestrial Water Cycle: Progress and Challenges.
