Ecosystem warming increases sap flow rates of northern red oak trees

open access: yesEcosphere, 2016
Over the next century, air temperature increases up to 5°C are projected for the northeastern United States. As evapotranspiration strongly influences water loss from terrestrial ecosystems, the ecophysiological response of trees to warming will have ...

Stochastic soil water dynamics of phreatophyte vegetation with dimorphic root systems [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
As the direct uptake of deep groundwater by vegetation may be essential in semiarid regions, we incorporated this process in stochastic root zone water balance models.

Foliar water uptake changes the world of tree hydraulics

open access: yesnpj Climate and Atmospheric Science, 2019
Climate change-induced drought events have become more prevalent during recent years, resulting in an increasing number of high-impact studies focussing on this important topic. In their recent review, Choat et al.

Characterization of Water Uptake by Organic Coatings Used for the Corrosion Protection of Steel as Determined from Capacitance Measurements

open access: yesInternational Journal of Electrochemical Science, 2012
Water absorption by a coating on a metal is a major factor affecting its corrosion protection efficiency. It is usually determined from the increase of coating capacity with time, which is taken as a measure of the water volume ratio in the system.

Reviews and syntheses: Isotopic approaches to quantify root water uptake: a review and comparison of methods

open access: yes, 2017
. Plant root water uptake (RWU) has been documented for the past five decades from water stable isotopic analysis. By comparing the (hydrogen or oxygen) stable isotopic compositions of plant xylem water to those of potential contributive water sources (e.

Record Atmospheric Fresh Water Capture and Heat Transfer with a Material Operating at the Water Uptake Reversibility Limit

open access: yesACS Central Science, 2017
The capture of water vapor at low relative humidity is desirable for producing potable water in desert regions and for heat transfer and storage. Here, we report a mesoporous metal–organic framework that captures 82% water by weight below 30% relative ...

Soil Water Variation Due to Grass Water Uptake

open access: yesIOP Conference Series: Materials Science and Engineering, 2021
Abstract Shallow landslide is the phenomenon of slope collapse frequently occurring in tropical rainforest regions such as Malaysia based on geotechnical problem. This paper aims to determine the effects of grass on the shallow slope’s stability in terms of the variability of soil moisture, and to establish 1D suction of soil moisture ...

Inhibiting stearoyl‐CoA desaturase suppresses bone metastatic prostate cancer by modulating cellular stress, mTOR signaling, and DNA damage response

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Bone metastasis in prostate cancer (PCa) patients is a clinical hurdle due to the poor understanding of the supportive bone microenvironment. Here, we identify stearoyl‐CoA desaturase (SCD) as a tumor‐promoting enzyme and potential therapeutic target in bone metastatic PCa.
