Investigation on water consumption characteristics and water use efficiency of poplar under soil water deficits on the Loess Plateau

open access: yesColloids and Surfaces B: Biointerfaces, 2006
The water consumption characteristics and water use efficiency (WUE) of poplar (Populus simonii) were investigated under the condition of three different soil water regimes, which were 70%, 55% and 40% of field capacity (FC), respectively. The results showed that water potential, water content, photosynthetic rate, WUE of leaves, and plant growth rate ...

Attitudes towards saving water, household structural characteristics and water consumption

PsyEcology: Bilingual Journal of Environmental Psychology, 2013
The attitudes of households towards saving water must be known and understood in order to generate sustainable behaviour in the use of this resource, as currently this behaviour is not being seen. This study examines whether households (18% of total water distributed), of different sizes and spanning a range of ages in terms of the head of the ...

The Study of Native Plants Water Consumption Characteristic in Gurbantunggut Desert

Applied Mechanics and Materials, 2013
The plants' sap flow can characterize water transpiration and consumption, reflect water transmission situation and then determine the vegetation ecological water requirement. This paper takes Haloxylon ammodendron and Tamarix as the research object, adopts thermal diffusion method[1], studies vegetation trunk fluid flow characteristics and the ...
