![]() ![]() Soil moisture content was found to be significantly positively related to precipitation and negatively related to air temperature. ![]() However, there was a clear lag in the soil moisture response to precipitation for the deep soil layers (80–100 cm). Our results showed that temporal variations in soil moisture at the surface (0–20 cm) and middle soil layers (40–60 cm) were consistent with precipitation patterns for both vegetation types. In this study, a soil moisture sensor was used for continuous volumetric soil moisture measurements during 20, with the aim of exploring variations in soil moisture and its response to precipitation infiltration across two vegetation types (alpine meadow and alpine shrub). However, few studies have compared the differences between the dynamics of soil moisture content and soil moisture response to precipitation infiltration under different types of vegetation on the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau (QTP). 4Hainan Academy of Forestry, Haikou, ChinaĪn understanding of soil moisture conditions is crucial for hydrological modeling and hydrological processes.3Key Laboratory of Adaptation and Evolution of Plateau Biota, Northwest Institute of Plateau Biology, Chinese Academy of Sciences, Xining, China. ![]() 2Qinghai Provincial Key Laboratory of Restoration Ecology for Cold Regions, Northwest Institute of Plateau Biology, Chinese Academy of Sciences, Xining, China.1College of Ecology and Environment, Hainan University, Haikou, China.Licong Dai 1,2,3, Ruiyu Fu 4, Xiaowei Guo 2,3*, Yangong Du 2,3, Fawei Zhang 2,3 and Guangmin Cao 2,3 ![]()
