Ecohydrology of a seasonal cloud forest in Dhofar: 1. Field experiment [PDF]

open access: yesWater Resources Research, 2007
We describe the ecohydrology of a unique semiarid broadleaf deciduous forest in Dhofar (Oman). The forest is surrounded by desert and is confined to a coastal area, where the summer wet season is characterized by a persistent dense cloud immersion.

Ecohydrology and Biogeochemistry in a Temperate Forest Catchment

open access: yes, 2012
The assimilated carbon stored in terrestrial ecosystems is exported with water movement in both organic and inorganic forms, which are defined as particulate organic carbon (POC), dissolved organic carbon (DOC), and dissolved inorganic carbon (DIC). The transport of terrestrial carbon into streams, rivers and eventually the oceans is an important link ...

Random forests as a tool for ecohydrological distribution modelling

Ecological Modelling, 2007
An important issue in ecohydrological research is distribution modelling, aiming at the prediction of species or vegetation type occurrence on the basis of empirical relations with hydrological or hydrogeochemical habitat conditions. In this study, two statistical techniques are evaluated: (i) the widely used multiple logistic regression technique in ...

European forest vulnerability to hydraulic failure: an ecohydrological approach

2023
The current acceleration of climate change in Europe makes it essential to assess spatially the impact of drought and heat waves on forest disturbances risk (mortality, wildfire risk, etc…). Recent studies have shown that hydraulic failure is a key driver of forest disturbances.

Ecohydrology and Biogeochemistry of the Rhizosphere in Forested Ecosystems

2011
The rhizosphere, defined as the narrow zone within the soil centered on the root–soil interface, is a hotspot for biogeochemical cycling within the soil. In this chapter, we focus on three rhizosphere mechanisms that differentiate the ecohydrological and biogeochemical processes characteristic of the rhizosphere from those of bulk soil.

Ecohydrology of Tropical Andean Cloud Forests

2020
Montane ecosystems around the world are found from the equator to the poles and occupy approximately one fifth of the surface of continents and islands (Ives et al. 1997). In South America, the Andes, as the longest ridge in America, extends over approximately 1.5 million km2, running from 11° N to 23° S, with altitudes up to 6000 masl.

Ecohydrological-Based Forest Management in Semi-arid Climate

2017
The role of forests on the provision and regulation of non-marketed ecosystem services is well known (Thorsen et al. 2014). This is especially important in areas like the Mediterranean, where protective forests play a major role against soil erosion and degradation, landscape quality and stabilization of the hydrological cycle.

ECOHYDROLOGY IN A COLORADO RIVER RIPARIAN FOREST: IMPLICATIONS FOR THE DECLINE OF POPULUS FREMONTII

Ecological Applications, 2005
Populus fremontii (Fremont cottonwood) was once a dominant species in desert riparian forests but has been increasingly replaced by the exotic invasive Tamarix ramosissima (saltcedar). Interspecific competition, reduced flooding frequency, and increased salinity have been implicated in the widespread decline of P. fremontii.

Tree species from Andean forest are complementary in their effect on ecohydrological processes

2021
<p>Vegetation affects water balance partitioning via effects on incoming precipitation, local radiation balance and hydrological dynamics of soil. The extent of these effects is determined by plant functional traits. Commonly, the role of plant species on hydrological regulation has been assessed considering vegetation as homogeneous ...

Effects of tropical montane forest restoration on the ecohydrological functioning of watersheds

2023
A nivel mundial, la restauración ecológica cobra cada vez mayor importancia, dada las condiciones de degradación de los ecosistemas y, por lo tanto, la urgente necesidad de recuperar dichos ecosistemas y restablecer los servicios ecosistémicos y la biodiversidad de los bosques.
