Water uptake by capillarity is widely used for characterising the durability properties of building materials. However, cementitious materials are generally reported with an anomalous behaviour in relation to other construction materials: during ...

Water uptake by roots: effects of water deficit [PDF]
The variable hydraulic conductivity of roots (Lp(r)) is explained in terms of a composite transport model. It is shown how the complex, composite anatomical structure of roots results in a composite transport of both water and solutes. In the model, the parallel apoplastic and cell-to-cell (symplastic and transcellular) pathways play an important role ...

Enhanced nitrogen (N) and water uptake from deep soil layers may increase resource use efficiency while maintaining yield under stressed conditions. Winter oilseed rape (Brassica napus L.) can develop deep roots and access deep-stored resources such as N

The impact of vegetation on fractionation of rare earth elements(REE) during water–rock interaction [PDF]
Previous studies on waters of a streamlet in the Vosges mountains (eastern France) have shown that Sr and rare earth elements (REE) principally originate from apatite dissolution during weathering. However, stream water REE patterns normalized to apatite

Intravenous Glibenclamide Reduces Lesional Water Uptake in Large Hemispheric Infarction.
Background and Purpose- Prior studies have shown a linear relationship between computed tomography (CT)-derived radiodensity and water uptake, or brain edema, within stroke lesions.

The dependence of the bulk resistance of membranes of ionophore-based ion-selective electrodes (ISEs) on the composition of mixed electrolyte solutions, within the range of the Nernstian potentiometric response, is studied by chronopotentiometric and ...

Foliar water uptake: Processes, pathways, and integration into plant water budgets.
Nearly all plant families, represented across most major biomes, absorb water directly through their leaves. This phenomenon is commonly referred to as foliar water uptake.

Modelling the Effect of Salt and PEG on Water Uptake in Wheat Seeds
Water uptake is a seminal process in seed germination. Salt and polyethylene glycol (PEG) are known to retard seed germination rates and percentages, which is often attributed to osmotic effects.

Decision support for optimised irrigation scheduling [PDF]
The system, developed under the FLOW-AID (an FP6 project), is a farm level water management system of special value in situations where the water availability and quality is limited.

Water is the most limiting resource for global crop production. The projected increase of dry spells due to climate change will further increase the problem of water limited crop yields.
