Bark water affects the isotopic composition of xylem water in tropical rainforest trees by Adriana Vega Grau, John Herbohn, Susanne Schmidt, Jeffrey McDonnell, Jeffrey McDonnell, Jeffrey McDonnell

“…We measured δ2H and δ18O in bark and xylem at two shallow depths: ‘outer xylem’ and ‘inner xylem’ (up to ~0.5 cm and ~ 1 cm from inner bark, respectively) collected at predawn, morning and midday. Considering all species together, the average isotopic composition of water in bark and outer xylem was similar at predawn and midday, suggesting water exchange between these tissues was reflected at these times, but differed significantly in the morning during increased transpiration. …”

Effects of floodplain decoupling on taxonomic and functional diversity of terrestrial floodplain organisms by Franziska Wenskus, Christian Hecht, Daniel Hering, Kathrin Januschke, Georg Rieland, Andrea Rumm, Mathias Scholz, Arnd Weber, Peter Horchler

“…., the volume of multidimensional trait space occupied by a community, decreased in the decoupled floodplain section for all three organism groups. Our results underscore the complex responses of different organism groups to differences in river-floodplain connectivity and suggest that floodplain specialist species of less mobile groups are disproportionately negatively affected by floodplain decoupling, contrary to the flight-active carabids. …”
