TY - T1 - Rhizosphere water content drives hydraulic redistribution : Implications of pore-scale heterogeneity to modeling diurnal transpiration in water-limited ecosystems SN - / UR - http://hdl.handle.net/10138/341735 T3 - A1 - Montaldo, Nicola; Oren, Ram A2 - PB - Y1 - 2022 LA - eng AB - Trees typically survive prolonged droughts by absorbing water from deeper layers. Where soils are shallow, roots may be extract water from the underlying fractured bedrocks. In dry seasons, surface-soil moisture dynamics reflect hydraulic redistribution (HR). HR is usually estimated based on the gradient of mean, or bulk, soil water potential among layers in the rooting zone (HRB). This approach neglects the potential effect of spatial heterogeneity of water content at the millimeter scale betwe...
