Coordination of stomatal control and stem water storage on plant water use in desert riparian trees
Populus euphratica Oliv. is a relatively ‘conservative’ water user even when growing in favourable water conditions, but the mechanistic understanding of this has received little attention. We undertook an experi...

Nighttime transpiration of Populus euphratica during different phenophases
Evidence exists of nighttime transpiration and its potential impact on plant/water relations for species in a diversity of ecosystems. However, relevant data related to typical desert riparian forest species r...

Comparable water use of two contrasting riparian forests in the lower Heihe River basin, Northwest China
Understanding forest ecosystem evapotranspiration (ET) is crucial for water-limited environments, particularly those that lack adequate quantified data such as the lower Heihe River basin of northwest China which...

Evidences and magnitude of nighttime transpiration derived from Populus euphratica in the extreme arid region of China
Extensive research has found that nighttime transpiration (E n) is positively correlated to the vapour pressure deficit (VPD), that suggested E n wa...

Hydraulic redistribution of soil water by roots of two desert riparian phreatophytes in northwest China’s extremely arid region
As deep water uptake is limited by the low densities of fine roots at the subsoil layer at high evaporative demand, hydraulic redistribution (HR) is another possible mechanism that could account for the lack o...

Spatial distribution characteristics of fine roots of Populus euphratica in a desert riparian forest
The soil-plant system is a very important subsystem of the soil-plant-atmosphere continuum (SPAC). The water uptake by plant roots is an important subject in the research on water transport in this SPAC and is...
