Release of stored sulfur may delay the recovery of soil pH from Acid Rain. It is hypothesized that analyzing the micro-spatial heterogeneity of soil columns downhill of a beech stem enables predictions of soil recovery as a function of historic acid loads and time. We demonstrated in a very simplified approach, how these two different factors may be untangled from each other using synthetic dat...

Understanding how rainfall is partitioned into throughfall, stemflow, and interception losses by xerophytic trees important for evaluating afforestation projects modeling hydrological budgets in semi-arid regions. However, information regarding partitioning the controlling factors regions remains underrepresented literature. We examined whether plant functional groups have a significant impact ...
