Water and Soil Water Availability
2013The water nourishment of the grapevine is one of the principle factors that determine crop quality and its consistency at harvest from year to year (Dry and Loveys 1998a; Kramer and Boyer 1995; Medrano et al. 2003; Santos et al. 2005). Because of diverse physiological repercussions (cf.

Water Quality and Availability
1992Designed to serve as both a one-stop information source and a guide to in depth exploration, this eye-opening volume examines the availability and quality of our most fundamental resource—water. Solidly grounded in scientific fact and historical and environmental realities,Water Quality and Availabilityoffers a sobering look at the state of ...

Water availability and plant–herbivore interactions
Journal of Experimental Botany, 2022AbstractWater is essential to plant growth and drives plant evolution and interactions with other organisms such as herbivores. However, water availability fluctuates, and these fluctuations are intensified by climate change. How plant water availability influences plant–herbivore interactions in the future is an important question in basic and applied

Water Availability Impacts on Evapotranspiration Partitioning
Agricultural and Forest Meteorology, 2021Abstract Knowing how evapotranspiration (ET) is mediated by abiotic and biotic pathways is essential to understanding how water affects ecosystem productivity. Recent studies have investigated the average transpiration fraction (T/ET) across sites and biomes, but the temporal variability of the partitioning and its controls are less understood. Here,

Equids engineer desert water availability
Science, 2021Digging for water Water is scarce in dryland ecosystems. Some larger animals in these regions dig wells that may provide water to other species. This behavior may have been common among megafauna that are now extinct, especially in North and South America, where megafaunal extinctions were the most severe. Lundgren et

Lower Limit of Water Availability to Plants
Science, 1964Measurements of transpiration, cell division, and cell enlargement show that no single lower limit of available water can be defined for these three plant processes. The soil-water content at which permanent wilting is exhibited does not represent a true lower limit for any of these.

Plant and Soil, 2010
There are different approaches to define the soil available water (SAW) for plants. The objectives of this study are to evaluate the SAW values of 12 arable soils from Hamadan province (western Iran) calculated by plant available water (PAW), least limiting water range (LLWR) and integral water capacity (IWC) approaches and to explore their relations ...

Fresh water is essential for human survival and for the maintenance of ecosystems on land. It is a key factor in development, particularly in arid and semi-arid countries where water security, like food security, is an important issue. However, concern is also growing in more humid countries where competition between the different sectoral users of ...
