Study region: From 2017 to 2019, xylem and leaf samples of Cinnamomum camphora were sampled and soil water samples at 0-100 cm depth were sampled 65 times simultaneously in a typical East Asian monsoon region. Study focus: The seasonal origin of plant and soil water from precipitation was inferred based on the stable isotope techniques, including the evaporation line slope (SEL) estimations and the seasonal origin index (SOI) calculation. New hydrological insights for the region: The regression SEL of leaf water was close to the theoretical SELs estimated based on the Craig-Gordon model, but x...
