Tree water use was positively related to tree diameter in both species, but this relationship tended to differ between species. In cacao trees maximal tree water use increased with decreasing canopy gap fraction above the trees (R2adj = 0·39, p = 0·04). This was paralleled by an increase of cacao stem diameter and leaf area with decreasing gap fraction. Maximum water use rate per unit crown area of cacao was 13% higher than that of Gliricidia. At the stand level the average transpiration rate was estimated at 1·5 mm day−1 per unit ground area, 70% of which was contributed to by cacao.

Here we explore how species identity, species mixture and tree size influence the vertical partitioning of soil water among canopy trees during a soil desiccation period. In the Hainich Forest, Germany, the species Fagus sylvatica, Tilia sp. and Fraxinus excelsior were studied in single- and three-species mixed clusters, each consisting of three co-dominant trees situated within a larger mixed forest stand. Vertical soil water uptake depth was assessed by analyzing the hydrogen stable isotope composition (deuterium, D) of water from depth intervals throughout the soil profile and in tree xylem water. For single species clusters, a mixing model suggested that Fagus distinctively drew water from soil depths of 0.3–0.5 m, Tilia from 0.3–0.5m and 0.5–0.7m and Fraxinus mainly used water from 0.5–0.7 m. In mixed clusters, the uptake patterns of Fagus and Tilia were similar to those of the singlespecies clusters (mainly uptake form 0.3–0.5 m), but Fraxinus showed a different uptake pattern. Fraxinus in mixture had a somewhat homogenously distributed uptake over the soil depths 0.2–0.7 m. For single species clusters, there was no correlation between main soil water uptake depth and tree diameter, irrespective of variations in tree size. In contrast, for mixed clusters there was a significant decrease in the main uptake depth with increasing tree size (P < 0.001, R2 adj = 0.73), irrespective of species mix. In consequence, soil water partitioning was strongest where species were mixed and tree size varied. We further analyzed whether single and mixed-species clusters differed in the level of water uptake, e.g. due to complementarity, but our soil water budgeting did not indicate any such differences. A possible explanation might be that the volume of water used is predominantly governed by properties at the stand level, such as aerodynamic roughness, rather than by processes acting at the meter scale between neighbouring trees. With respect to application, we assume that the upcoming close-to-nature forestry approach for the area, which fosters mixed stands of heterogonous diameters, may result in enhanced complementarity in soil water uptake among canopy trees."],["dc.description.sponsorship","Open-Access-Publikationsfonds 2012"],["dc.identifier.doi","10.5194/bg-9-3465-2012"],["dc.identifier.gro","3149053"],["dc.identifier.purl","https://resolver.sub.uni-goettingen.de/purl?gs-1/8398"],["dc.identifier.uri","https://resolver.sub.uni-goettingen.de/purl?gro-2/5696"],["dc.language.iso","en"],["dc.notes.intern","Hoelscher Crossref import"],["dc.notes.status","final"],["dc.notes.submitter","chake"],["dc.relation.issn","1726-4189"],["dc.rights.access","openAccess"],["dc.title","Partitioning of soil water among canopy trees during a soil desiccation period in a temperate mixed forest"],["dc.type","journal_article"],["dc.type.internalPublication","yes"],["dc.type.peerReviewed","no"],["dc.type.version","published_version"],["dspace.entity.type","Publication"]]

Since the 1980s, the thermal dissipation probe (TDP) method has been widely applied in trees, proved to be fairly accurate but is challenging in remote areas. Also in the 1980s, the deuterium (D(2)O or deuterium oxide) tracing method was proposed, which so far has less often been applied. However, deuterium tracing requires less sophisticated equipment in the field and new analytical methods reduce costs and increase sample throughput. The objectives of this study were (i) to compare plant water use estimates of the TDP and D(2)O method and (ii) to determine whether the D(2)O method is appropriate for assessing absolute magnitudes of plant water use. The two methods were employed on five tropical tree species and a bamboo species growing in a reforestation stand in the Philippines and an agroforestry system in Indonesia. For bamboo, an increase in D(2)O values in neighbouring, non-labelled culms suggests that injected D(2)O was partly redistributed among culms, which would seriously limit the accurate estimation of water use for the target culm. For trees, water use estimates resulting from the D(2)O tracing method were proportional to the TDP results (r(2) = 0.85, P < 0.001), but absolute values were, on average, about seven times higher. This overestimation may be due to the assumptions underlying the D(2)O tracing method, such as the conservation of tracer mass, not being met. Further, it cannot be excluded that underestimation of water use by the TDP method contributed partly to the observed difference. However, when considering known sources of error, a large part of the observed difference remains unexplained. Based on our results, the use of the D(2)O tracing method cannot be recommended without further experimental testing if absolute values of whole-plant water use are a major goal. However, the D(2)O tracing method appears suitable for answering other questions, such as relative differences in water use among trees, water redistribution among neighbours and internal water transport and storage processes in plants."],["dc.identifier.doi","10.1093/treephys/tpq045"],["dc.identifier.gro","3149071"],["dc.identifier.uri","https://resolver.sub.uni-goettingen.de/purl?gro-2/5716"],["dc.language.iso","en"],["dc.notes.intern","Hoelscher Crossref import"],["dc.notes.status","final"],["dc.notes.submitter","chake"],["dc.relation.issn","0829-318X"],["dc.title","Can deuterium tracing be used for reliably estimating water use of tropical trees and bamboo?"],["dc.type","journal_article"],["dc.type.internalPublication","unknown"],["dc.type.peerReviewed","no"],["dspace.entity.type","Publication"]]

To characterize the drought response of mature cocoa trees, we conducted the Sulawesi Throughfall Displacement Experiment in a shaded (Gliricidia sepium) cocoa agroforestry system in Central Sulawesi, Indonesia. Three large sub-canopy roofs were installed to reduce throughfall by about 80% over a 13-month period to test the hypotheses that (i) cocoa trees are sensitive to drought due to their shallow fine root system, and (ii) bean yield is more sensitive to drought than leaf or stem growth. As 83% of fine root (diameter <2 mm) and 86% of coarse root biomass (>2 mm) was located in the upper 40 cm of the soil, the cocoa trees examined had a very shallow root system. Cocoa and Gliricidia differed in their vertical rooting patterns, thereby reducing competition for water. Despite being exposed for several months to soil water contents close to the conventional wilting point, cocoa trees showed no significant decreases in leaf biomass, stem and branch wood production or fine root biomass. Possible causes are active osmotic adjustment in roots, mitigation of drought stress by shading from Gliricidia or other factors. By contrast, production of cocoa beans was significantly reduced in the roof plots, supporting reports of substantial reductions in bean yields during ENSO-related drought events in the region. We conclude that cocoa possesses traits related to drought tolerance which enable it to maintain biomass production during extended dry periods, whereas bean yield appears to be particularly drought sensitive."],["dc.identifier.doi","10.1007/s10457-010-9303-1"],["dc.identifier.gro","3149046"],["dc.identifier.purl","https://resolver.sub.uni-goettingen.de/purl?gs-1/4251"],["dc.identifier.uri","https://resolver.sub.uni-goettingen.de/purl?gro-2/5690"],["dc.language.iso","en"],["dc.notes.intern","Hoelscher Crossref import"],["dc.notes.intern","Merged from goescholar"],["dc.notes.status","final"],["dc.notes.submitter","chake"],["dc.relation.issn","0167-4366"],["dc.rights","Goescholar"],["dc.rights.uri","https://goescholar.uni-goettingen.de/licenses"],["dc.title","Response of cocoa trees (Theobroma cacao) to a 13-month desiccation period in Sulawesi, Indonesia"],["dc.type","journal_article"],["dc.type.internalPublication","unknown"],["dc.type.peerReviewed","no"],["dc.type.version","published_version"],["dspace.entity.type","Publication"]]

The objectives of our study were: (1) to identify the response of cacao and Gliricidia sap flux densities to reduced soil water availability, and (2) to analyze the changes in stand level soil water partitioning, measured as changes in transpiration, drainage and soil moisture storage under reduced throughfall. The study was conducted in Sulawesi, Indonesia at a site where ambient precipitation was 2841 mm yr−1. The research site was subdivided into three control plots and three plastic roof plots in which net precipitation was reduced by 71% through the use of a sub-canopy roof for 13 months, to create rainfall conditions similar to an extended El Niño event. The two species differed in their sap flux response to declining soil water content. Daily Gliricidia sap flux declined at higher soil water contents than cacao, while Gliricidia sap flux declined in response to all levels of vapor pressure deficit (VPD) and cacao only responded to high levels of VPD. Average monthly sap flux densities of cacao and Gliricidia in the roof plots decreased linearly with decreasing soil water content reaching a maximum reduction of 21% (cacao) and 29% (Gliricidia) as compared to control plots. Cacao withdrew water mainly from the topsoil where small amounts of throughfall entering gaps in the roof frequently rewetted the soil. Therefore the competition between the two species for water resources during long periods with only little precipitation was low or in favor of cacao. Average daily stand transpiration was 1.3 mm in roof plots and 1.5 mm in control plots. Measured soil water contents were simulated satisfactorily by the application of a one-dimensional soil water model based on Richards unsaturated flow equation. The model suggested that drainage amounted to 1554 mm yr−1 in control plots. Drainage in roof plots was greatly reduced, totaling 299 mm yr−1. Soil moisture storage in the control underwent minor variations while it was heavily reduced in roof plots. Drainage in roof plots was a large driver of changes in soil moisture storage especially in deeper soil layers while precipitation and root water uptake were the main influencing factors for the topsoil. Deep root water uptake seemed to play a minor role in this experiment. Despite the strong reduction in net precipitation, declines in stand transpiration were moderate, suggesting that the stand did not react sensitively to the reduced throughfall scenario."],["dc.identifier.doi","10.1016/j.agrformet.2010.04.005"],["dc.identifier.gro","3149060"],["dc.identifier.uri","https://resolver.sub.uni-goettingen.de/purl?gro-2/5704"],["dc.language.iso","en"],["dc.notes.intern","Hoelscher Crossref import"],["dc.notes.status","final"],["dc.notes.submitter","chake"],["dc.relation.issn","0168-1923"],["dc.title","Throughfall reduction in a cacao agroforest: tree water use and soil water budgeting"],["dc.type","journal_article"],["dc.type.internalPublication","unknown"],["dc.type.peerReviewed","no"],["dspace.entity.type","Publication"]]

However, high water use by trees may deplete water resources for associated crops or other purposes. Choice of tree species might reduce water use rates to acceptable levels, but available information on species-specific water use characteristics is scarce. We addressed the following questions: 1) do species differ in xylem sap flux response to fluctuating environmental conditions, 2) are there species-specific differences in quantities of water used, and specifically 3) do universal rules relating tree size to water use apply? This chapter combines data on tree sap flux and water use gathered in Indonesia, Panama and the Philippines. These studies applied the same methods and were conducted in recently established stands (5–12 years old when studied) characterised by small diameter trees and relatively simple stand structure. We analyse data from more than 100 trees belonging to 17 species using a simple sap flux model. Model application suggested species-specific differences in parameters such as maximal sap flux velocity and responses to radiation and vapour pressure deficit. With respect to the quantity of water used per tree, we observed a strong correlation between tree diameter and tree water use, which confirms earlier publications. However, e.g. in the stands in the Philippines where tree diameter explained 65% of observed variation, some species clearly followed distinct trajectories. For a given diameter, up to twofold differences in tree water use among species were observed.

Soil water content was successfully reduced down to a soil depth of at least 2.5 m. Contrary to our expectations we measured only relatively small nonsignificant changes in cacao (−11%) and Gliricidia (−12%) sap flux densities, cacao leaf litterfall (+8%), Gliricidia leaf litterfall (−2%), soil carbon dioxide efflux (−14%), and cacao yield (−10%) during roof closure. However, cacao bean yield in roof plots was substantially lower (−45%) compared with control plots during the main harvest following the period when soil water content was lowest.
