Tree water uptake patterns across the globe
Charlotte Grossiord, Christoph Bachofen
Plant water uptake from the soil is a crucial element of the global hydrological cycle and essential for vegetation drought resilience. Yet, knowledge of how the distribution of water uptake depth (WUD) varies across species, climates, and seasons is scarc ...
Wiley2024From roots to canopy: Unraveling the influence of species diversity on tree water relations under warmer and drier climates
The worsening of drought events with rising air temperature alters tree water relations causing severe hydraulic impairments and widespread forest mortality. Mixing tree species with contrasting hydraulic traits could reduce forest vulnerability to extreme ...
EPFL2024Interactions between beech and oak seedlings can modify the effects of hotter droughts and the onset of hydraulic failure
Charlotte Grossiord, Eugénie Isabelle Mas, Hervé Cochard, Margaux Clara Lou Didion-Gency, Janisse Deluigi, Fernando Valladares
center dot Mixing species with contrasting resource use strategies could reduce forest vulnerability to extreme events. Yet, how species diversity affects seedling hydraulic responses to heat and drought, including mortality risk, is largely unknown. Using ...
Hoboken2023Increasing temperature and vapor pressure deficit lead to hydraulic damages in the absence of soil drought
Pascal Turberg, Charlotte Grossiord, Eugénie Isabelle Mas, Laura Mekarni, Philipp Schuler, Leonie Corine Schönbeck
Temperature (T) and vapor pressure deficit (VPD) are important drivers of plant hydraulic conductivity, growth, mortality, and ecosystem productivity, independently of soil water availability. Our goal was to disentangle the effects of T and VPD on plant h ...
Wiley2022Phloem water isotopically different to xylem water: Potential causes and implications for ecohydrological tracing
Andrea Rinaldo, Paolo Benettin
The stable isotopes of hydrogen and oxygen in xylem water are often used to investigate tree water sources. But this traditional approach does not acknowledge the contribution of water stored in the phloem to transpiration and how this may affect xylem wat ...
WILEY2022On the use of leaf water to determine plant water source: A proof of concept
Source water apportionment studies using the dual isotopes of oxygen and hydrogen have revolutionized our understanding of ecohydrology. But despite these developments-mostly over the past decade-many technical problems still exist in terms of linking xyle ...
WILEY2021On cavitation inception and cavitating flow patterns in a multi-orifice microfluidic device with a functional surface
Luis Guillermo Villanueva Torrijo, Morteza Ghorbani, Merve Zuvin
During the last decade, hydrodynamic cavitation has been implemented in various applications such as energy harvesting and biomedical applications. Facile hydrodynamic cavitation methods are required for fulfilling the requirements in these applications. I ...
AMER INST PHYSICS2021Aerodynamic study of a Hyperloop pod equipped with compressor to overcome the Kantrowitz limit
This paper describes an investigation of the aerodynamic performance of a Hyperloop pod equipped with an axial compressor using CFD simulation. The compressor is expected to reduce the drag if the operational speed of the pod exceeds the Kantrowitz Limit ( ...
2021Tree effects on urban microclimate: Diurnal, seasonal, and climatic temperature differences explained by separating radiation, evapotranspiration, and roughness effects
Gabriele Manoli, Matthias Roth, Paolo Burlando
Increasing urban tree cover is an often proposed mitigation strategy against urban heat as trees are expected to cool cities through evapotranspiration and shade provision. However, trees also modify wind flow and urban aerodynamic roughness, which can pot ...
2021Vegetation cover and plant-trait effects on outdoor thermal comfort in a tropical city
Gabriele Manoli, Paolo Burlando
An increase in urban vegetation is an often proposed mitigation strategy to reduce urban heat and improve outdoor thermal comfort (OTC). Vegetation can alter urban microclimate through changes in air temperature, mean radiant temperature, humidity, and win ...
