The study looked at soil water during vegetation restoration in a hilly region. They found that soil water content varies with slope direction and position, with north-facing lower slopes having more water. Over time, soil water content decreases below 60 cm but stabilizes deeper. Grassland has more water than woodland, and natural restoration has more water than manual restoration.
