Putting two water transport models to the test under wet and dry conditions [PDF]
, 2013 In order to improve fruit quality and quantity, accurate monitoring of the water status is necessary. The water status can be continuously predicted by using a mechanistic water transport and storage model (e.g. Steppe et al., 2006; 2008).
