Figure 1: δ 18 O and δ 2 H values of groundwater, stream water, plant xylem water and soil water at 47 globally distributed sites. To quantify the similarities or differences between waters used by ...

In this article we determine the importance of transpiration in plants at three different levels of organization: the plant itself, the ecosystem, and the biosphere, all in terms of entropy production ...

A new study shows that machine-learning models can accurately predict daily crop transpiration using direct plant ...

A research team has developed a low-cost, high-throughput phenotyping platform that continuously measures plant transpiration ...

Steve Nix is a member of the Society of American Foresters and a former forest resources analyst for the state of Alabama. Water mostly enters a tree through the roots by osmosis and any dissolved ...

Purdue Landscape Report: Water covers approximately 71% of Earth’s surface, yet only 3% of the 326 million cubic miles of water on the planet is suitable for growing crops, such as trees. It can be ...

As temperatures rise in July and August, transpiration from plants might add to the humidity. One plant that gets more blame than others is corn, said Dan Quinn, assistant professor of agronomy and ...

A research team successfully developed a solar-powered artificial plant device and rapidly purified soil contaminated with radioactive cesium. This device, which mimics plant transpiration, can ...

A Hebrew University study suggests AI tools could help growers better manage water use by predicting healthy plant behavior and flagging early signs of stress.

Most of the water that enters a plant will exit the leaf into the atmosphere. This provides a continuous stream of water which is known as the transpiration stream. Surface area (not an environmental ...
