Estimating the effect of water shortage on olive trees by the combination of meteorological and Sentinel-2 data

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Remote Sensing, 2023
Relative soil water content (RSWC) is widely used to characterize the impact of water stress (WS) on vegetation. In bi-layer ecosystems, such as olive groves, this impact must be primarily estimated for the tree component, which, having greater rooting ...

Effect of Deficit Irrigation on Root Growth, Soil Water Depletion, and Water Use Efficiency of Cucumber

open access: yesHortScience, 2021
Water scarcity is increasing in the world, which is limiting crop production, especially in water-limited areas such as Southern High Plains of the United States.

Evidence for the importance of land use, site characteristics and vegetation composition for rooting in European Alps

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2021
Plant rooting strongly affects most hydrological, biogeochemical and ecological processes in terrestrial ecosystems, as it presents the main pathway for carbon, water and nutrient transfer from soil to the atmosphere and is a key factor in stabilizing ...

Ecosystem rooting depth determined with caves and DNA [PDF]

open access: yesProceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 1999
Belowground vertical community composition and maximum rooting depth of the Edwards Plateau of central Texas were determined by using DNA sequence variation to identify roots from caves 5–65 m deep. Roots from caves were identified by comparing their DNA sequences for the internal transcribed spacer (ITS) region of the 18S–26S ...

Distribution of root system of hop plants in hop gardens with regular rows cultivation

open access: yesPlant, Soil and Environment, 2020
Spatial distribution of the root system of hop (Humulus lupulus L.) in the soil profile is a less explored issue. However, it is known that it can play an important role in the development of new tillage technologies, fertilisation and irrigation ...

Variation in sugar maple root respiration with root diameter and soil depth [PDF]

open access: yesTree Physiology, 1998
Root respiration may account for as much as 60% of total soil respiration. Therefore, factors that regulate the metabolic activity of roots and associated microbes are an important component of terrestrial carbon budgets. Root systems are often sampled by diameter and depth classes to enable researchers to process samples in a systematic and timely ...

Root Pruning and Planting Depth Impact Root Morphology in Containers [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Environmental Horticulture, 2012
Increasingly, producers and consumers are realizing that roots play a major role in nursery tree quality. To remain competitive, producers need to find economically viable methods of increasing quality standards. Two studies were designed to test methods of improving root systems in a container root ball.

Alteration of the Cesium-137 soil profile by wild boar rooting after the Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Plant accident

open access: yesEnvironmental Challenges, 2023
Large amounts of Cesium-137 (137Cs, physical half-life ca. 30 years) were released into the environment from the 2011 Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Plant (FDNPP) accident in Japan.

Solving polynomials by radicals with roots of unity in minimum depth [PDF]

open access: yesMathematics of Computation, 1999
Summary: Let \(k\) be an algebraic number field. Let \(\alpha\) be a root of a polynomial \(f\in k[x]\) which is solvable by radicals. Let \(L\) be the splitting field of \(\alpha\) over \(k\). Let \(n\) be a natural number divisible by the discriminant of the maximal abelian subextension of \(L\), as well as the exponent of \(G(L/k)\), the Galois ...

Small differences in root distributions allow resource niche partitioning

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, 2020
Deep roots have long been thought to allow trees to coexist with shallow‐rooted grasses. However, data demonstrating how root distributions affect water uptake and niche partitioning are uncommon.
