DOI: 10.1007/s10457-017-0135-0

Abstract: This study focused on leaf and root density dynamics of the most dominant tree species (Vitellaria paradoxa) of West African savannas in two land use types (farmed land and forest). Ten trees located at least… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/s10457-019-00457-6

Abstract: Understanding belowground morphological mechanisms of trees and grasses is a complicated task but can help in the design and management of silvopastoral systems. In this study, we evaluated the effect of the harvest intervals (i.e.… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/s11104-020-04446-y

Abstract: (1) To develop a 3D root distribution model for piñon-juniper woodland using only tree species, sizes and locations as input. (2) To interpret a two-year time series of soil moisture relative to root distributions. The… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/s11104-021-05111-8

Abstract: The stability of hillslopes is an essential ecosystem service, especially in alpine regions with soils prone to erosion. One key variable controlling hillslope stability is soil aggregate stability. We aimed at identifying dominant controls of… read more here.

DOI: 10.2136/vzj2017.04.0075

Abstract: For winter wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) that grows during the rainless season, the contribution of groundwater to the root zone (CGWR) is an important water source for growth. Accurately estimating the CGWR is important for… read more here.
