Community-specific hydraulic conductance potential of soil water decomposed for two Alpine grasslands by small-scale lysimetry

For central Europe in addition to rising temperatures an increasing variability in precipitation is predicted. This will increase the probability of drought periods in the Alps, where water supply has been sufficient in most areas so far. For Alpine grasslands, community-specific imprints on dro...
