Abstract:Studying the interrelation of soil water and plant water is essential
for an in-depth understanding of eco-hydrological processes. However,

soil, plant, precipitation, and groundwater between P. fruticosa shrub
and alpine grassland locations at two neighboring sites in order to
better understand the inter… Show more
