Variability in water use by phreatophytic Banksia woodland vegetation of the Swan Coastal Plain, Western Australia
… and may be considered a summer obligate phreatophyte. B. attenuata is a summer facultative phreatophyte, occurring where groundwater depth is 2 to >30m with groundwater accounting for between 5 to 75% of water used depending on depth to the water table. These results suggest the …

Comparing the effects of two types of Mulches on soil properties and the performance of selected woody species on a degraded land in Kunene region, Namibia
… to the fact that Vachellia erioloba is a phreatophyte, which means that it can excess groundwater in water i stressed environments (possibly very early on) and that mulching has a lower impact on its survival and growth, making the shallow effect of mulching on it less noticeable. Mulching …

Estimating Evapotranspiration of a Riparian Forest Using Sap Flow Measurements
<p>To close the water use budget of irrigated agricultural fields in floodplains with substantial riparian corridors, it is necessary to understand groundwater usage by dominant phreatophytic vegetation, particularly when the primary source of water for irrigation comes from groundwater …

The response of Banksia roots to change in water table level in a Mediterranean-type environment
… might be an essential prerequisite for phreatophytes if they are to survive fluctuating water table conditions in seasonally water-limited environments.
