Applicability of the complementary relationship of evapotranspiration for heterogeneous vegetation cover at boundary and plot scales by Chong Fu, Xiaoyu Song, Wanyin Wei, Qi Zhang, Lanjun Li, Xinkai Zhao, Pengfei Meng, Long Wang, Huaiyou Li

“…Study region: Two boundary-scale watersheds (Yangjiagou and Dongzhuanggou) and three typical vegetation plots [a single plantation, a mixed plantation, and a natural grassland] in the Loess Plateau. Study focus: The performance of different Generalized Complementary Relationships (four versions of GCR) in simulating actual evapotranspiration (ETa) at boundary (∼1 km2) and plot scales (much less than 1 km2) remains unclear, particularly under heterogeneous vegetation cover. …”

Evaluation of the Operational Simplified Surface Energy Balance Model for Pastureland Evapotranspiration Mapping and Drought Monitoring in North Central Kentucky by Maheteme Gebremedhin, Ian Ries, Gabriel B. Senay, Martin Matisoff, Ibukun Amusan, Jeremy Sandifer, Buddhi Gyawali

“…The use of remotely sensed evapotranspiration (ET) for field applications in drought monitoring and assessment is gaining momentum, but meeting this need has been hampered by the absence of extensive ground-based measurement stations for ground validation across agricultural zones and natural landscapes. This is particularly crucial for regions more prone to recurring droughts with limited ground monitoring stations. …”

Interaction between arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi and dark septate endophytes in the root systems of Populus euphratica and Haloxylon ammodendron under different drought conditions... by Huimei Wang, Huimei Wang, Hengfang Wang, Hengfang Wang, Shengtao Wei, Shengtao Wei, Li Sun, Li Sun, Li Sun, Linlin Cheng, Linlin Cheng

“…Background and AimsArbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) and dark septate endophytes (DSE) are known to enhance the tolerance of host plants to biotic and abiotic stresses, but the mechanism of their interaction under natural conditions has not been extensively studied.MethodsWe analyzed the endophytic fungal diversity and colonization characteristics in the typical desert plants Populus euphratica and Haloxylon ammodendron and the relationship between them and environmental factors.ResultsExcept for DSE in the roots of H. ammodendron, the colonization rates of AMF and DSE were significantly positively correlated with drought severity. …”
