DOI: 10.1007/s10750-017-3149-8
Abstract: Mangrove trees are rooted in saline soils which can limit their growth. Access to alternative, less saline water sources may provide important water subsidies. We assessed the hydrogen and oxygen isotopic signatures of soil porewater,… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.agrformet.2020.108058
Abstract: Abstract Stem water content (θ) is an important state variable in the soil-plant-atmosphere continuum (SPAC), and varies temporally and spatially in response to environmental factors and plant growth stages. However, it is difficult to measure… read more here.

Managing Water Stress in Olive (Olea europaea L.) Orchards Using Reference Equations for Midday Stem Water Potential
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2023 at "Horticulturae"
DOI: 10.3390/horticulturae9050563
Abstract: The irrigation surface of olive orchards has increased over recent decades. In zones affected, deficit irrigation scheduling is a must. The aim of this work was to study water stress management based on reference equations… read more here.
