DOI: 10.1029/2021gl093858
Abstract: Root water uptake (RWU) strategies shape climate‐vegetation feedbacks and ecosystem productivity. A fundamental relationship between RWU strategies and evolutionary histories (phylogeny) of trees, however, remains poorly understood. Establishing a phylogenetic basis for tree RWU, particularly… read more here.

DOI: 10.1080/07900627.2018.1543116
Abstract: ABSTRACT Groundwater use for agriculture has the potential to improve rural households’ income and reduce poverty, but the linkages are not always straightforward. Taking Laos as a case study, this article illustrates how differential access… read more here.

DOI: 10.4186/ej.2019.23.6.487
Abstract: In many provinces of Mekong delta, excessive groundwater extraction has resulted in many serious groundwater-related problems. To solve problems relevant to increasing water demand as well as other negative influence of groundwater depletion, an exigent… read more here.
