Ecological Role of Eucalyptus (3)
Water Cycle Regulation:
• Water Uptake: Eucalyptus trees are known for their high water uptake, which can help lower water tables and reduce the risk of salinization in certain landscapes. However, this trait can also be a drawback in water-scarce areas .
• Transpiration: They contribute to the water cycle through the process of transpiration, influencing local and regional humidity and precipitation patterns.
