In the present study, the water storage, saturation dynamics, and ion release experiment of a set of four moss species (Hypnum lacunosum, Homalothecium lutescens, Dicranum scoparium, and Tortella tortuosa) was performed by a more simplified immersion and drainage procedure with water chemistry analyses. All species reached a sorption equilibrium between 10 and 20 min, with pleurocarpous taxa retaining 20\u201335% more water than acrocarpous species and possessing water-holding capacities (WHCs) between 300% and 700% of dry weight. Species-specific differences in water chemistry (pH, EC, and TDS) were observed: Tortella tortuosa presented the greatest ionic flux, and Hypnum lacunosum presented little variation in pH and electrical conductivity. These findings imply that the mosses operate as micro-scale buffers regulating both water quantity and water quality, and thereby the soil stability, infiltration, and drought resilience. The combined hydrological and biogeochemical view offers a novel understanding of bryophyte ecohydrology and highlights the significance of mosses in the practice of watershed management and climate-change mitigation.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/plants14172728","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2025,9,2]],"date-time":"2025-09-02T08:23:38Z","timestamp":1756801418000},"page":"2728","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":6,"title":["Water-Holding Capacity, Ion Release, and Saturation Dynamics of Mosses as Micro-Scale Buffers Against Water Stress in Semi-Arid Ecosystems"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"14","author":[{"given":"Serhat","family":"Ursavas","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Faculty of Forestry, Department of Forest Engineering, Cankiri Karatekin University, 18200 Cankiri, Turkey"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-4211-2476","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Semih","family":"Edis","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Faculty of Forestry, Department of Forest Engineering, Cankiri Karatekin University, 18200 Cankiri, Turkey"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"1968","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2025,9,2]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref_1","unstructured":"Bell-Butler, P., and Waka, T.H.
