Short summary
We used a modelling approach supported by stable water isotopes to explore how forest management – such as conifer, broadleaf, and mixed tree–crop systems – affects water partitioning and drought resilience in a drought-sensitive region of Germany. By representing forest type, forest density, and rooting depth, the model helps quantify and show how land use choices affect water availability and ecohydrological resilience, thereby supporting improved land and water management decisions.
