6 cze 2024 · During extensive periods without rain, known as dry-downs, decreasing soil moisture (SM) induces plant water stress at the point when it limits evapotranspiration, defining a critical SM...
3 dni temu · Excessive soil water limits plant photosynthesis possibly via aggravating soil anoxia that decreases the metabolic activity of plant roots and aerobic microorganisms (such as bacteria involved in ...
15 cze 2002 · Here we review different plant strategies to cope with drought, and discuss how regulation of leaf photosynthesis, whole plant carbon assimilation and allocation takes place in response to slowly imposed water deficits under field conditions, presenting examples from our own work with Mediterranean species.
3 lis 2018 · Soil moisture models are important tools for predicting changes in soil moisture–plant interactions. Simplifying descriptions of each process in models is important; moreover, optimality-based models can provide novel insights that would allow prediction of plant responses to changes in soil moisture dynamics due to environment fluctuations.
6 paź 2024 · Plant photosynthesis can be moisture limited via low water supply (soil moisture (SM)) or high atmospheric demand (vapor pressure deficit (VPD)), and low SM and high VPD frequently co-occur at monthly and annual timescales.
31 paź 2018 · Here, I synthesize published data on 405 interactions to show how changes in soil moisture affect the frequency or strength of plant-mediated biotic interactions. Despite substantial variation among published responses, general patterns have emerged.
4 lis 2022 · Plant water stress occurs at the point when soil moisture (SM) limits transpiration, defining a critical SM threshold (θ crit). Knowledge of the spatial distribution of θ crit is crucial for future projections of climate and water resources.
