As plant species for riparian ecological restoration in northern China, Tamarix ramosissima and Salix matsudana play an important role in river protection, flood control, regional climate regulation, and landscape construction of riparian vegetation. Two sampling sites were selected in the riparian zones along the Lanzhou section of Yellow River, where plant xylems and potential water sources were collected. The direct comparison method, Bayesian mixture model MixSIAR and the proportional similarity index (PS index) were used to determine the proportions of water utilization for each potential water source and the relationship of two species in water utilization. The results showed that shallow soil (0-30 cm) was the main water source during growing season, with utilization ratio being 28.3% for T. ramosissima and 24.4% for S. matsudana. For T. ramosissima, river water had the lowest contribution (16.6%), and for S. matsudana, groundwater contributed the least (17.9%). In the months with low soil moisture, plants increased the utilization ratios of river water and groundwater. The PS index at the sampling site S1 and S2 was 91.0% and 87.7%, respectively. On a monthly basis, the index in May was the highest, indicating an inter-month divergence in water use relationship. At the floodplain, there were even utilization ratios for each potential water source, which is an optimal strategy to obtain water from each potential source to the maximum extent. Our results provided theoretical basis for riparian tourism development along the Lanzhou section of the Yellow River and plant water management in environment protection in the Yellow River Basin.
