Effect of rooting depth


Hydrologic regulation of plant rooting depth - PNAS

Plant rooting depth affects ecosystem resilience to environmental stress such as drought. Deep roots connect deep soil/groundwater to the atmosphere, thus ...

Global‐Scale Shifts in Rooting Depths Due To Anthropocene Land ...

In some regions, human-promoted woody encroachment induces root elongation, but this effect is overwhelmed by the spatial extent of agricultural ...

Deep roots and soil structure - PMC - PubMed Central

The field sites (i.e. soil type) had the greatest effect on the distribution of roots with depth, with one of the sites encouraging a much greater root length ...

The influence of rooting depth on the simulated hydrological cycle of ...

The hydrological cycle is one of the key issues in simulating the climate with an atmospheric general circulation model (GCM). This study shows that rooting ...

Understanding deep roots and their functions in ecosystems

This result indicates that most tree species, especially temperate angiosperms, appear to maximize carbon fixation through a sort of ...

How does root depth affect the nearby soil?

Roots help plants get the nutrients and water they need for healthy growth. They also give back to the soil. The deeper and wider they go, the ...

Dynamic root growth in response to depth-varying soil moisture ...

The results confirm that root growth is predominantly driven by vertical soil moisture distribution, while influencing soil moisture at the same time.

Global‐Scale Shifts in Rooting Depths Due To Anthropocene Land ...

Rooting depths are changing globally; the depth to which 99% of crop roots extend is shallower by ∼60 cm compared to natural systems · In other ...

How to study deep roots—and why it matters - PMC

Even relatively consolidated, un-weathered rocks are susceptible to the physical effects of deep roots: rock wedging results when growing roots expand at joints ...

Digging Deeper for Agricultural Resources, the Value of Deep Rooting

Deep Roots in Plants Driven by Soil Hydrology - Rutgers University

Tree and plant root depths vary, depending on climate, soil and water conditions, including rainwater infiltration and ground water levels. Ying ...

Hydrologic regulation of plant rooting depth - PNAS

Root growth in saturated layers is often offset by enhanced access to nutrients (7, 8), and nutrient uptake rates at depth can be higher than that observed near ...

Implementing Dynamic Rooting Depth for Improved Simulation of ...

The enhancements in soil moisture profiles reduce the biases in surface heat flux simulations. The impact of rooting depth representation appears to be ...

Study on the Standards of Proper Effective Rooting Depth for Upland ...

Effective rooting depth including 70% of root ranged from 19 cm to 29 cm for Chinese cabbage, from 24 cm to 38 cm for maize, from 17 cm to 24 cm for lettuce.

Effect of deep and shallow root systems on the dynamics of soil ...

The retention in the deeper soil layers allowed Ninorg to be taken up by succeeding deep rooted main crops or catch crops. The effects of crop ...

Effects of drip irrigation on deep root distribution, rooting depth, and ...

Conclusions. We found that the application of 33.3 mm of irrigation water (equivalent to 7 % of the local annual precipitation) could halve the ...

Root system-based limits to agricultural productivity and efficiency

Rooting depth appears to be more limited on the sandy soils, and the amount of N and water in deeper soil layers is lower, reducing the value of ...
