Frontiers in Forests and Global Change, 2021 In stemflow, rainfall is collected and channeled to a concentrated soil water input. It can constitute up to 30% of incident precipitation in some ecosystems.

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.

Frontiers in Forests and Global Change, 2021 Few investigations have examined the structural controls of bark on its water storage and influence on stemflow, despite the bark being considered a critical component that determines the time and magnitude of this process. This study seeks to answer the

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 ...

Hypothesis and Theory: Fungal Spores in Stemflow and Potential Bark Sources
Frontiers in Forests and Global Change, 2021 The study of stemflow fungi began over 50 years ago. Past work has been performed in different climatic regions of the world, with different sampling methods, by mycologists focusing on different taxonomical groups.

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 ...

What We Know About Stemflow's Infiltration Area
Frontiers in Forests and Global Change, 2020 A portion of precipitation drains to the surface down plant stems, as “stemflow.” Although per observations to date, stemflow rarely represents >2% of gross precipitation in forests, it can result in larger water fluxes to near-stem soils that are ...

Stemflows and Preferential Flows: A Historical Review and Challenges for the Future [PDF]
Hydrological ProcessesABSTRACT This paper provides a historically‐grounded review and research agenda on a generally neglected issue in hillslope hydrology and hydrological modelling: the role of stemflow in initiating preferential flow in soils. While stemflow typically represents a small fraction of incident rainfall, it can concentrate water fluxes by ...

Methods in Ecology and EvolutionPrecipitation channelled down tree stems (stemflow) or into drip points of ‘throughfall’ beneath trees results in spatially concentrated inputs of water and chemicals to the ground.

Mapping bark bacteria: initial insights of stemflow-induced changes in bark surface phyla. [PDF]
Microbiol Spectr, 2023 Life on and within bark surfaces is likely affected by many factors, including bark moisture, bark microrelief, bark pH, and the climatology of forests.
