Abstract
In this paper, we consider a model of soil water and nutrient transport with plant root uptake. The ge-ometry of the plant root system is explicitly taken into account in the soil model. We first describe our modeling approach. Then, we introduce an adaptive mesh refinement procedure enabling us to accurately capture the geom-etry of the root system and small-scale phenomena in the rhizosphere. Finally, we present a domain decomposition technique for solving the problems arising from the soil model as well as some numerical results.
