Dynamic hydrological niche segregation: how plants compete for water in a semiarid ecosystem

Abstract: Hydrological niche segregation (HNS), which refers to differences in root water uptake depth and physiological traits among coexisting species, remains poorly understood especially with respect to moisture changes and diverse water use strategies. This is particularly the case in regions with a seasonally dry climate where plants must constantly adapt to water stress. Over a 2-year period, we analyzed the isotopic compositions of xylem and soil water (δ2H, δ18O) and foliar δ13C to identify the water sources an… Show more
