Comparison of different Gash physically-based models for estimating stemflow in Elder pine stand in Chitgar Forest Park [PDF]
مجله جنگل ایران, 2019 In plant ecohydrology studies, stemflow considered as point input of rainfall into plant ecosystems. To date, due to field measurement, time-consuming and high cost of stemflow measurements, models are used to estimate the stemflow amounts.

Exploring impacts of forest management strategies on water partitioning in a drought-sensitive catchment using a tracer-aided ecohydrological framework [PDF]
Hydrology and Earth System SciencesLand use strongly influences water partitioning, water availability, and ecohydrological resilience in drought-sensitive regions. Forest management plays a critical role through its effects on water use, which depends on forest type, forest density, root

Hydrometeorology of the Dhofar cloud forest and its implications for groundwater recharge
Journal of Hydrology: Regional Studies, 2018 Study region: The Dhofar mountains are located on the Arabian Peninsula in Southern Oman. Unlike other regions of Oman, the Dhofar mountains have an annual monsoon season that results in a semi-arid cloud forest.

Technical note: Application of geophysical tools for tree root studies in forest ecosystems in complex soils [PDF]
Biogeosciences, 2017 While semiarid forests frequently colonize rocky substrates, knowledge is scarce on how roots garner resources in these extreme habitats. The Sierra San Miguelito Volcanic Complex in central Mexico exhibits shallow soils and impermeable rhyolitic-rock
