Abstract | Natural abundance stable isotopes have been used to investigate tree-water relations and interactions between trees and groundcover vegetation in seasonally water-stressed environments. This approach will be implemented to identify water sources utilised by the phreatic dominant canopy species Eucalyptus camaldulensis (river red gum) and the invasive alien groundcover species Phyla canescens (lippia) under low ambient soil moisture conditions in riparian woodlands of the northern Murray-Darling Basin. |
