Rooting for water: Bridging Plant Hydraulics and Ecohydrology to Predict Drought Stress

Forests regulate climate and sustain biodiversity, but their resilience is increasingly threatened by drought-induced hydraulic failure, when xylem water transport is impaired by embolism. A critical but poorly constrained determinant of this risk largely due to limited observations of deep root water uptake is the amo...
