Plant responses to precipitation in desert ecosystems: integrating functional types, pulses, thresholds, and delays
Abstract The 'two-layer'and 'pulse-reserve'hypotheses were developed 30 years ago and
continue to serve as the standard for many experiments and modeling studies that examine …

Nighttime transpiration in woody plants from contrasting ecosystems
It is commonly assumed that transpiration does not occur at night because leaf stomata are
closed in the dark. We tested this assumption across a diversity of ecosystems and woody …

Foliar water uptake: a common water acquisition strategy for plants of the redwood forest
Evaluations of plant water use in ecosystems around the world reveal a shared capacity by
many different species to absorb rain, dew, or fog water directly into their leaves or plant …
