“…Therefore, the retaining capacity of soil water in deep layers could be considered as identical among vegetation types. In the present study, shrubland with lower soil bulk density and moderate soil texture compositions had higher SWC (Table and Figure ), which is consistent with the results of Duan et al () and Liu et al (). These features also had positive impacts on the response of shrubland soil moisture to precipitation, as reflected by a steeper slope between ΔSWS t to precipitation (Figure ).…”

“…In the present study, the shrubland showed higher soil water content, whereas dry soil layers might have developed in the land planted with black locust in its deep soil layers. Vegetation reconstruction or restoration should be adapted to local conditions, which means that proper vegetation types are supposed to be selected according to precipitation and soil water conditions (Liu et al, ; Wang et al, ). For example, it was reported that black locust and understory species exerted favourable ecological effects in the regions with annual precipitation of more than 500 mm (Jin et al, ).…”

“…Strikingly, more water evaporated under comparable LAI and climate conditions for younger than older stands. This is because the impact of forests on water resources depends on age, as research on discharge and soil water reduction through afforestation has demonstrated (Liu et al, 2018;Nan, Wang, Jiao, Zhu, & Sun, 2019;Scott & Prinsloo, 2009;Wang et al, 2012).…”

“…Maximizing precipitation infiltration and reducing run-off are critical factors for vegetation restoration and soil and water conservation in semiarid areas. Vegetation type and community composition also impact soil water dynamics (Fischer et al, 2018;Liu et al, 2018), soil properties (Don et al, 2015;Sibylle et al, 2008), and soil hydraulic characteristics (Huang, Tian, Wu, Liu, & Dang, 2017;Wu, Liu, Yang, et al, 2017). PSD also influences soil hydraulic properties.…”
