Evaluation of modeling of water ecohydrologic dynamics in soil–root system.

Highlights: [•] Interaction between belowground and aboveground water ecohydrologic dynamics. [•] Water uptake simulation both at the microscopic and macroscopic levels. [•] Macroscopic models have moisture uptake pattern constant, linear and exponential. [•] Non-linear macroscopic models have improved moisture prediction efficiency. [•] To verify the modeled moisture uptake patterns, precisely obtained field data is vital. [Copyright &y& Elsevier]
