Deep Soil Moisture Storage and Transpiration in Forests and Pastures of Seasonally-Dry Amazonia
To assess the impacts of land-use changes on plant-available water (PAW) and evapotranspiration (ET), volumetric water content (VWC) was measured to 8 m beneath three, adjacent ecosystems for four years (1991–1994). Estimates of PAW, ET, and deep drainage were...
