• Simulated recruitment of riparian trees and shrubs under natural and regulated flow regimes on the Wisconsin River, USA (2006, background): “The model may also be amenable for representing recruitment dynamics of multiple riparian tree species, by incorporating differences in dispersal timing (Shafroth et al ., 1998), root growth rates and tolerance to water table decline (Horton and Clark, 2001; Amlin and Rood, 2002).”
• Comparative ecophysiology of Tamarix ramosissima and native trees in western U.S. riparian zones (2005, background): “Shafroth et al., 2000), faster root growth in response to a declining water table ( Horton and Clark, 2001 ), abilityto use vadose zone moisture as well as ground water (Busch et al., 1992; Horton et al., 2003) and higher physiological tolerance to low water potential (Devitt et al., 1997a,b).”
• Flood tolerance in wetland angiosperms: a comparison of invasive and noninvasive species (2004, background): “Horton and Clark (2001) found that water level declines and drought, conditions that often occur downstream from dams and diversions, favored seedlings of the exotic desert riparian species Tamarix chinensis over the native Salix gooddingii.”
• Early root growth plasticity in seedlings of three Mediterranean woody species (2007, unknown): “Interestingly, there are reports of greater root elongation rate in drought-tolerant turfgrass (Huang 1999) and phreatophyte seedlings (Horton and Clark 2001), and in seedlings of species restricted to dry sites (Evans and Etherington 1991) when subjected to lower water availability.”
• Comparative tolerances of riparian willows and cottonwoods to water-table decline (2002, background): “Root growth capacity of different species should influence their ability to survive varying rates of watertable decline (McBride and Strahan 1984, Kranjcec et al. 1998, Horton and Clark 2001).”
