Root-Zone Hydrology: Why Bald-Cypress in Flooded Wetlands Grow More When It Rains

Root-Zone Hydrology: Why Bald-Cypress in Flooded Wetlands Grow More When It Rains

Bald cypress (Taxodium distichum) is known to respond to increases in precipitation with increased radial growth even when rooted in continuously saturated sediments where water is not a growth-limiting factor. Measurements of δ¹⁸O, Cl⁻, ³H and hydraulic head in surface water and shallow groundwater...
