The Differences in Water Repellency in Root Mat (Biomat) and Soil Horizons of Thinned and Non-thinned <i>Chamaecyparis obtusa</i> (Siebold et Zucc.) Endl. Plantations

Water repellency (WR) is one cause of root mat (biomat) flow and soil surface runoff in dense <i>Chamaecyparis obutsa</i> (Siebold et Zucc.) Endl. plantations. However, the changes in WR of biomat and soil horizons are unclear in the thinned <i>C. obtusa</i> plantations. This...
