Prediction of hydraulic conductivity loss from relative water loss: new insights into water storage of tree stems and branches
(Wiley, 2019-04)
More frequently occurring, drought waves call for a deeper understanding of tree hydraulics and fast and easily applicable methods to measure drought stress. The aim of this study was to establish empirical relationships ...
Hydraulic and leaf reflectance alterations induced by Clavibacter michiganensis subsp. michiganensis on tomato plants
(Springer, 2018-05)
Clavibacter michiganensis subsp. michiganensis causes bacterial wilt and canker in tomato. A detailed account of pathogen effects on growth and water parameters of affected plants is lacking. Besides, the long latent period ...
Dry weight partitioning and hydraulic traits in young Pinus taeda trees fertilized with nitrogen and phosphorus in a subtropical area
(Oxford University Press, 2013-02)
Plants of Pinus taeda L. from each of four families were fertilized with nitrogen (N), phosphorus (P) or N + P at planting. The H family had the highest growth in dry mass while the L family had the lowest growth. Measurements ...
Hydraulic, chemical and biological coupling on heavy metals transport through landfills liners
(Widner University, 2017-08)
Soil layers in landfill liners are usually considered non-reactive, and the biological activity in the barrier is neglected for the calculation of the liner life span. The purpose of this research is to highlight the ...
Pore system configuration and hydraulic properties: Temporal variation during the crop cycle in different soil types of Argentinean Pampas Region
(Elsevier Science, 2020-04)
Soil hydraulic properties and pore system configuration are important parameters to understand soil physical behavior under different tillage systems. However, there are some contradictory results, including the influence ...
Wood density and anatomy of three Eucalyptus species: implications for hydraulic conductivity
(Instituto Nacional de Investigación y Tecnología Agraria y Alimentaria, 2017-05)
Aim of the study: To characterize wood anatomical traits of three Eucalyptus species that differ in wood density and ecological requirements, and to examine the relationships between some anatomical features, wood density, ...
Hydraulic conductivity and pore connectivity. Effects of conventional and no-till systems determined using a simple laboratory device
(Elsevier Science, 2019-03)
Soil hydraulic conductivity is a property that describes how easily water can move through a porous space and its determination is important because it controls many soil hydrological processes. The objectives of this work ...
Soil water availability and rooting depth as determinants of hydraulic architecture of Patagonian woody species
(Springer, 2009-07)
Adaptations of species to capture limiting resources is central for understanding structure and function of ecosystems. We studied the water economy of nine woody species differing in rooting depth in a Patagonian shrub ...
Hydraulic constraints on photosynthesis in subtropical evergreen broad leaf forest and pine woodland trees of the Florida Everglades
(Springer, 2010-06)
The relationship between water transport and photosynthesis represents the trade-off between carbon gain and water loss and was used to evaluate potential differences in water resource utilization among two dominant ...
Hydraulic resistance in mixed bedrock-alluvial meandering channels
(International Association for Hydro-Environment Engineering and Research, 2020-05-10)
We present an experimental analysis of hydraulic roughness variations due to changes in alluvial cover in a mixed bedrock-alluvial meandering channel with larger bedrock roughness than alluvial roughness. Three sets of ...
