Vapour pressure deficit modulates hydraulic function and structure of tropical rainforests under nonlimiting soil water supply

Oliver Binks,
Lucas A. Cernusak,
Michael Liddell
et al.

Abstract: Summary Atmospheric conditions are expected to become warmer and drier in the future, but little is known about how evaporative demand influences forest structure and function independently from soil moisture availability, and how fast‐response variables (such as canopy water potential and stomatal conductance) may mediate longer‐term changes in forest structure and function in response to climate change. We used two tropical rainforest sites with different temperatures and vapour pressure deficits (VPD), but … Show more

“…The strong impact of moisture-related climatic conditions during the recovery period on the recovery of woody component partly depends on the sensitivity of vegetation to speci c climatic factors. For example, VPD modulates hydraulic function and structure in tropical rainforests during the recovery period with su cient soil water supply (Binks et al, 2023), making tall Amazonian forests more sensitive to VPD than precipitation (Giardina et al, 2018). Soil moisture supplies the water resource to tropical forest and thus to be a key controller of tropical forest local hydrology (Bruno et al, 2006).…”
