Simple physics-based models of compensatory plant water uptake: concepts and eco-hydrological consequences
Many land surface schemes and simulation models of plant growth designed for practical use employ simple empirical sub-models of root water uptake that cannot adequately reflect the critical role water uptake from sparsely rooted deep subsoil plays in meeting atmospheric transpiration demand in wate...
