Here we describe the pathways and mechanisms driving water uptake and transport through plants, and causes of flow disruption. Water is the most limiting abiotic (non-living) factor to plant ...

For fruit tree orchards, under-tree sprinklers provide valuable frost protection by applying water directly to the root zone ...

Plants shape Earth’s atmosphere by moving carbon and water vapour. New research sheds light on how they learned to do it – and how it may change in future climates.

and water released through plant leaves into the atmosphere. Throughflow - Water flows downhill within the soil. Groundwater flow - Water flowing slowly through rocks towards the sea. Percolation ...

Some seeds are transported by the wind and are shaped to float, glide or spin through the air. Plants growing near a river may use the flowing water to transport their seeds. Some seed pods are ...
