Unsaturated hydraulic properties of xerophilous mosses: towards implementation of moss covered soils in hydrological models
Evaporation from mosses and lichens can form a major component of the water balance, especially in ecosystems where mosses and lichens often grow abundantly, such as tundra, deserts and bogs. To facilitate moss representation in hydrological models, we parameterized the unsaturated hydraulic propert...
