Stable isotopic analysis of water utilization characteristics of four xerophytic shrubs in the Hobq Desert, Northern China

Quantitative identification of water utilization characteristics of xerophytic shrubs is an important prerequisite for the selection and optimization of a regional artificial sand-fixing vegetation system. In this study, a hydrogen (δD) stable isotope technique was used to study the changes in water...
