Tamarisk, or saltcedar, has several adaptations that enable it to thrive in arid and saline environments. Its deep root system allows it to access groundwater, while its small, scale-like leaves reduce water loss through transpiration. Additionally, tamarisk can excrete excess salt through specialized glands in its leaves, helping it to survive in saline soils. These adaptations make it resilient in challenging habitats, although they also contribute to its invasiveness in some regions.
