Water quality in reference watersheds in the United States: A compilation and analysis of small watershed data. [PDF]

J Environ Qual
Abstract The natural background contribution from grasslands and forest lands is important to consider in research and management to address the contribution of agricultural, industrial, and urban lands to water quality degradation. To our knowledge, no study has compiled and analyzed reference water quality from small reference grasslands and forests ...

Opportunistic Recharge Enhancement in Arid and Semi-Arid Regions. [PDF]

Ground Water
Groundwater supplies are increasingly stressed by climatic trends and multiple competing uses, especially in dryland environments. We propose opportunistic recharge enhancement (ORE) as a cross‐disciplinary, scalable framework to augment groundwater supplies by strategically integrating recharge co‐benefits into existing land and water management ...

Effect of forest on sediment yield in North China

International Soil and Water Conservation Research, 2013
Forest-sediment relationship is a hot and important issue in Ecohydrology studies. China has implemented many large-scale reforestation programmes in the last decades to address the growing soil erosion and desertification.

Antecedent moderate nitrogen fertilization alleviated the effects of drought on growth and leaf photosynthesis of Schima Superba seedlings [PDF]

BMC Plant Biology
Background Drought and nitrogen deposition are the major global change factors that alter forest dynamics by affecting tree growth and physiology. However, the impacts of increased nitrogen availability at pre-drought on trees remains poorly understood ...

The Ecohydrology of Coastal Ghost Forests

Ecohydrology
Sea level rise and storm surges affect coastal forests along low-lying shorelines. Salinization and flooding kill trees and favour the encroachment of salt-tolerant marsh vegetation. The hydrology of this ecological transition is complex and requires a multidisciplinary approach.

The role of leaf superoxide dismutase and proline on intra-specific photosynthesis recovery of Schima superba following drought [PDF]

Scientific Reports
Understanding the physiological and biochemical responses of tree seedlings under extreme drought stress, along with recovery during rewatering, and potential intra-species differences, will allow us to more accurately predict forest responses under ...

Comparison of revised Gash models for estimating rainfall interception in an oriental beech stand, west of Hyrcanian region [PDF]

مجله جنگل ایران, 2022
The most common models for estimating rainfall interception are physical-based models, of which Gash models are the most widely used. Therefore, this study aimed to compare the efficiency of revised Gash models in estimating the rainfall interception of ...
