Water and nutrient fluxes |
![]() |
Background
- Tree rows change the water balance of cropping systems by their transpiration, effects on microclimate and soil structure
- Trees affect nutrient cycling of agroforestry system
Objectives
Investigation of
- Soil moisture dynamics in space and time
- Water fluxes between crops and trees
- Gradients of nutrient mobility (incl. validation of a low-cost assessment method for plant nutrient mobility)
- Nitrogen uptake of crops and trees
