The Budyko models provide a transparent framework for analyzing climate-catchment
interactions and therefore have been widely used to quantify the role of vegetation …

A review is provided of the current and emerging methods for modelling catchment-scale
recharge and evapotranspiration (ET) in shallow groundwater systems. With increasing …

Afforestation is increasingly considered as a land use activity that threatens water resources
security. At the same time, it is advocated for a wide range of other water-related benefits …

Ecohydrology: Vegetation Function, Water and Resource Managementdescribes and
provides a synthesis of the different disciplines required to understand the sustainable …

Guidelines for revegetation in agricultural landscapes may not address restoration of
ecosystem functions because management is focused on the replanting stage, although …

This chapter reviews the beneficial and adverse effects of trees on crops with regard to water
use and water balance, and considers how tree-crop interactions may change under …

The leaf area index (LAI) product from the Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer
(MODIS) is important for monitoring and modelling global change and terrestrial dynamics at …

There is scope internationally to utilise surplus and degraded agricultural land for biomass
crops that might also be environmentally beneficial. For example, dryland salinity in …

Water table fluctuations and renewal rates based on 3H and 14C concentrations in bores
screened within 5m of the water table were used to estimate recharge rates in five dryland …

Measurement of tree root systems by conventional methods is a Herculean task. The
