Forest stand factors determine the rainfall pattern of crown allocation of Picea schrenkiana in the northern slope of Mount Bogda, Tianshan Range, China [PDF]
Frontiers in Plant Science, 2023 The middle elevation forest of the Tianshan Mountains, dominated by the conifer tree Picea schrenkiana, is an important part of the mountain ecosystem of arid Northwestern China, which plays a pivotal role in carbon sequestration and water conservation ...

Conceptual analysis: What signals might plant canopies send via stemflow?
Frontiers in Water, 2022 As watersheds are complex systems that are difficult to directly study, the streams that drain them are often sampled to search for watershed “signals.” These signals include the presence and/or abundance of isotopes, types of sediment, organisms ...

A preliminary observation for quantifying detached stemflow
Hydrological Research Letters, 2022 : Detached stemflow has been defined as rainwater that breaks away from the stemflow and falls around the trees as throughfall. Quantitative measurements of detached stem‐ flow were taken for two sample broadleaf trees on the university campus.

Is stemflow a vector for the transport of small metazoans from tree surfaces down to soil? [PDF]
BMC Ecology, 2018 Background Stemflow is an essential hydrologic process shaping the soil of forests by providing a concentrated input of rainwater and solutions. However, the transport of metazoans by stemflow has yet to be investigated.

Vadose Zone JournalStemflow is a key process in forested catchments due to its control on soil water content and nutrients’ transport. However, there are still few studies focusing on stemflow infiltration and relying on direct observations that are minimally invasive and ...

Reviews of GeophysicsAbstract Stemflow hydrodynamics is the study of water movement along the exterior surface area of plants. Its primary goal is to describe water velocity and water depth along the stem surface area. Its significance in enriching the rhizosphere with water and nutrients is not in dispute.

Stemflow and throughfall in agricultural crops: a synthesis [PDF]
Revista Ambiente & Água, 2021 The interception of rainwater in annual and perennial agriculture has been the object of several studies in the last decades. However, scant attention has been paid to where this research has taken place and which principal crops have been studied.

Stemflow Unveils Trees' Weatherproofing Stratagem During Autumnal Senescence. [PDF]
Plant Cell EnvironSummary statement Tree weatherproofing during senescence is imprinted in trees' stemflow chemistry. We supply novel data on stemflow neutral sugars leaching and propose a conceptual model to explain the interplay between higher stemflow neutral sugar concentrations during senescence and ecophysiological changes in bark/wood chemistry that initiate ...

Data on soil physicochemical properties and chemical composition of rainfall and of throughfall and stemflow generated by Turkey oak trees (Quercus cerris L.) in acid and sub-alkaline soils [PDF]
Data in Brief, 2018 We report data on the physicochemical properties of soils collected in two adjacent areas, one acid and one sub-alkaline, both developed on sequential beds of Plio-pleistocene marine sediments, and on the chemical composition of ecological solutions ...
