Abstract:: Effects of bedrock water availability on growth and ecophysiology of Douglas-fir [Pseudotsuga TnenzieSii (Mirb.) Franco) and Pacific madrone (Arbutus inenziesii Pursh) were studied in southwest Oregon in 1990. Bedrock physical features, including bulk density, water holding capacity, and available water capacity, were examined at different depths from 1.0 to 3.0...

Creator:: Zwieniecki, Maciej A.
Abstract:: Evaluation of meta-sedimentary bedrock as a source of stored water available to plants in a mediterranean climate is presented based on: root length distribution (RLD), root morphology, rock water holding capacity and seasonal pattern of water depletion. Studies were performed in southwestern Oregon under young stands of whiteleaf manzanita, ponderosa...
