Amendment of soil with biochar has been widely investigated for soil quality improvement in
terms of biotic and abiotic functionalities. The performance of biochar-based amendment …

The increasing evaporative demand due to climate change will significantly affect the
balance of carbon assimilation and water losses of plants worldwide. The development of …

Abstract Knowledge concerning the water use characteristics of revegetated species has
profound implications for understanding soil–plant interaction mechanisms and guiding …

Leaf functional traits determine a plant's survival and growth. Variation in leaf traits control
the functioning of forest ecosystem. The study examines the variation in 18 leaf traits (4 …

Species‐specific responses of plant intrinsic water‐use efficiency (iWUE) to multiple
environmental drivers associated with climate change, including soil moisture (θ), vapor …

Trees have been used for phytoremediation and as biomonitors of air pollution. However,
the mechanisms by which trees mitigate nanoparticle pollution in the environment are still …

Relatively few studies have so far investigated the hydrological impacts of urbanization in
Mediterranean catchments, and particularly in peri‐urban catchments experiencing …

While foliar photosynthetic relationships with light, nitrogen, and water availability have been
well described, environmental factors driving vertical gradients of foliar traits within forest …

Aims The growing demand from forest managers is to identify silvicultural practices to
overcome projected water scarcity during the next decades. One solution is to mix tree …

The finite difference ecosystem‐scale tree crown hydrodynamics model version 2 (FETCH2)
is a tree‐scale hydrodynamic model of transpiration. The FETCH2 model employs a finite …
