Inter-specific differences in the dynamics of water use and pulse-response of co-dominant canopy species in a dryland woodland

Differences in the magnitude and timing of rainfall pulse-response among plant species in dryland ecosystems may facilitate the maintenance of species diversity, but this hypothesis remains untested among species that appear to occupy the same ecological niche. Here, we examined the pulse-response o...
