Wettability is an important parameter that significantly determines hydrology in porous media, and it especially controls the flow of water across the rhizosphere—the soil-plant interface. However, the influence of spatially heterogeneous distribut

How heterogenous distributions of hydrophobicity affects the capillary rise in soil

Autor: Eva Kroener, Ravi Ajitbhai Patel, Jonas Bentz, Adrian Haupenthal

A central component of the rhizosphere is root mucilage, a hydrogel exuded by plants that dramatically alters chemical and physical properties of the soil. It is characterized by its large water holding capacity and is hydrophilic or hydrophobic depe

Plants possibility to control soil gas exchanges via mucilage

Gaseous matter exchanges in soil are determined by the connectivity of the pore system which is easily clogged by fresh root exudates. However, it remains unclear how a hydrogel (e.g. mucilage) affects soil pore tortuosity when drying. The aim of thi
