Positive Effects of Scattered Trees on Soil Water Dynamics in a Pasture Landscape in the Tropics by Benegas, Laura, Hasselquist, Niles, Bargués-Tobella, Aida, Malmer, Anders, Ilstedt, Ulrik

“…Moreover, isotopic data of soil water suggest that trees reduce evaporative water losses from the soil surface, as indicated by the lack of correlation between soil water content and lc-excess (line condition excess) values of surface soil water under trees, and enhance preferential flow as suggested by less negative lc-excess values under trees compared to open areas during the dry season. …”
