While the results of the storage decomposition depend on model structure, little attention has been given to the impact of the way that vegetation is represented in these models. Although vegetation structure and activity represent the crucial link between water, carbon, and energy ...
Their roots stabilize soils, prevent erosion, and contribute to water cycle regulation. Vegetation cover also enhances biodiversity by providing habitats and resources for various species, fostering ecological resilience. In conclusion, the importance of plants transcends mere existence; they are indispensabl...
Vegetation-climate relationships differ amongst continents in the Southern Hemisphere15, possibly depending upon the different climate regimes experienced around the globe. In this study, we will focus on the climate modes associated with the contribution of semi-arid regions of Australia to fluctuations...

water year, near-surface drying co-located with vegetation regrowth in the burned catchments was evident more than in WY1 (Fig.4n). Even so, in the unburned catchment, the lateral extent of drying of the near surface exceeded that of the burned catchment measured at that time (Fig.4m)....

Drought stress can trigger tree mortality but the impact depends on stress intensity (water demand and availability) and on the vulnerability of the individual. Therefore, most research focusses on the species-specific properties such as water use efficiency or hydraulic conductivity that determine vuln...
Revealing Invisible Water: Moisture Recycling as an Ecosystem Service In this paper, we analyze the extent to which vegetation sustains the supply of atmospheric moisture and precipitation for downwind beneficiaries, globally. ... PW Keys,WE Lan,LJ Gordon - 《Plos One》 被引量: 40发表: 2016年...
Even though beneficial plant–microbe relationships have been studied for over one century, the recognition of a complex microbiome inhabiting the plant is relatively recent and reveals new opportunities for manipulating plant growth and health. Endophyt
In addition to wind speed and soil moisture, dust emissions are also affected by the presence of vegetation. The dust emission flux in CESM is parameterized to decrease linearly with the leaf area index (LAI), going to zero at a threshold LAI of 0.36. Future and historical simulations are ...
