Decreasing water availability reduces productivity in Swiss forests along an altitudinal gradient
Functional Ecology, Volume 40, Issue 7, Page 2143-2157, July 2026.Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Forests are one of the most important terrestrial carbon sinks, but are increasingly under pressure due to drought, heat and the occurrence of extreme events. There are opposing longer term trends for European forest growth reported, and severe drought and disturbance ...

Hydraulic-Mechanical Properties of Unsaturated Granite-Weathered Residual Soil in Korea
Vadose Zone Journal, 2019 This study performed a series of experiments to examine the hydraulic-mechanical properties of granite-weathered residual soil in the Korean Peninsula. Particular attention was paid to the soil-water characteristic curve (SWCC) and shear strength under ...

Leaky Sewers Hydraulically Disconnect from Groundwater: A Proof‐of‐Concept
Groundwater, Volume 64, Issue 4, Page 483-497, July/August 2026.In this study, we newly demonstrate that leaky pipes can become hydraulically disconnected from the underlying groundwater—a phenomenon analogous to river–groundwater interactions. Through numerical modeling, we show that, as the groundwater table declines, the leakage flux from the pipe (in absolute terms) initially increases until a critical depth ...

Swelling Potential of Fine‐Grained Soil: Theory, Determination, and Validation
Water Resources ResearchSwelling potential (SP) has long been used as a terminology to describe a soil's expansibility. It is commonly defined in terms of pressure or deformation under certain constraints.

Agro@mbiente On-line, 2014 In the state of Mato Grosso, the area planted with cotton is mainly concentrated in the plains, where the climate Aw determines an alternation between a rainy and a dry season, and where the soil is predominant Red-Yellow Latosol and Red Latosol (Oxisol).

Root Dynamics Mitigate Warm and Dry Biases Over the Central United States
Geophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 11, 16 June 2026.Abstract The central United States frequently exhibits warm and dry biases in simulations of summertime conditions, a persistent feature that remains unresolved. While previous studies linked these biases to misrepresented surface energy exchanges, the role of belowground processes remains poorly understood.

Soil Matric Potential, Plant Water Relations, and Growth in Asparagus
HortScience, 1987 Abstract Soil moisture treatments were initiated in a greenhouse study using 14-weekold asparagus ( Asparagus officinalis L. cv. Jersey Giant) seedlings. Treatments consisted of drying pots to a minimum soil matric potential ranging from –0 .0 5 to –1 .5 MPa prior to ...
