Funded Activity Summary

Generalising a root-water uptake mechanism for successful land surface modelling. Understanding root functioning in Australian savanna ecosystems is critically important for successful resource management but such understanding is not represented in land surface models (LSMs). This project will incorporate root functioning into LSMs and improve our ability to manage water and carbon natural resources in a changing climate.
