Hydrological Aspects in a Siberian Larch Forest

  • Chapter
  • First Online:
Permafrost Ecosystems

Part of the book series: Ecological Studies ((ECOLSTUD,volume 209))

Abstract

Understanding the water cycle is crucial for ecological studies, because all life both depends on water and affects the water cycle. Energy exchanges between biomes and the atmosphere are also strongly tied to water cycles through evapotranspiration. Therefore, clarifying hydrological processes and features can greatly contribute to a deep understanding of ecological systems.
