Abstract:This research, conducted at the National Field Science Observation and Research Station of the Aksu Farmland Ecosystem in Xinjiang, was performed to partition evapotranspiration components, identify the main water absorption depth, and quantify the contribution of soil water at different depths during different growing stages of cotton by combining hydrogen and oxygen stable isotopes and the MixSIAR model. The results indicated that evapotranspiration in the seeding stage, bud stage, flowering and boll stage, … Show more
