A proper mechanistic understanding of how whole-tree transpiration varies as a function of environmental conditions is essential for predicting how vegetation will respond to climate change, ...

LOUISVILLE, Ky. (WAVE) - Evapotranspiration is responsible for 15% of our atmosphere's water vapor. Evapotranspiration is the combination of evaporation and transpiration. Both processes release water ...

Particulate matter deposits on leaves increase plant transpiration and the risk of plants suffering from drought. Particulate matter could thus be contributing more strongly to tree mortality and ...

TWO paper by Sir Francis Darwin (Proceedings of the Royal Society, B, vol. Ixxxvii.) mark an important advance in the study of the process of transpiration in plants. Hitherto, although transpiration ...

Several years ago, I had a reader ask, “Why should I use an anti-transpirant?” As landscapers, we would use this product to reduce water vapor escaping from the plant. Anti-transpirants or ...

Dear Jessica: Can you please tell me what these droplike things are on the leaves in the picture? If it’s a disease, how do I treat it? — Marilyn Von Braunsberg, Oceanside Dear Marilyn: Those sticky ...

Plant and Soil, Vol. 412, No. 1/2, Part I: Special Issue: Belowground solutions to global challenges (March 2017), pp. 215-233 (19 pages) Aims: A soil-plant-atmosphere continuum (SPAC) model for ...

Researchers at Oregon State University, Texas A&M and Ghent University studied plant water use on a global scale across all climates. A new study in the journal Nature Ecology & Evolution may help ...

SALT LAKE CITY (KUTV) — All of Utah remains in severe drought conditions, with 43.5% of the state still in extreme drought conditions. Our rivers and streams are all flowing at below normal levels, ...
