The photosynthesis and transpiration of crops
When a leaf absorbs radiant energy, only a small fraction is stored chemically in photosynthesis. In sunlight, this fraction is at most one-fifth of the energy in the visible spectrum, decreasing with increasing light intensity because of the finite ...

Water-seepage-induced geological hazards often cause substantial economic losses, human mortality, and environmental damage. Nevertheless, the available water seepage early warning system (WSEWS) still needs much improvement.

Aquaporins and plant transpiration.
Although transpiration and aquaporins have long been identified as two key components influencing plant water status, it is only recently that their relations have been investigated in detail.

Transpiration Cooling Using Liquid Water [PDF]
At the Space Launcher System Analysis (SART) department of DLR-Cologne, a hypersonic spaceplane for passenger transportation is being investigated. A major challenge is the aerodynamic heating of the vehicle.

Limiting transpiration rate in high evaporative demand conditions to improve Australian wheat productivity [PDF]
Limited-transpiration rate at high evaporative demand (‘LTR’ trait) has potential to improve drought adaptation, crop water productivity and food security.

Transpiration in plants: A thermodynamic imperative [PDF]
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 due to transpiration.

Modeling of transpiration reduction in van Genuchten-Mualem type soils [PDF]
We derive an analytic expression for the matric flux potential (M) for van Genuchten-Mualem (VGM) type soils which can also be written in terms of a converging infinite series.

Transpiration Cooling Tests of Porous CMC in Hypersonic Flow [PDF]
During hypersonic flight the temperatures on the vehicle can reach very high values in certain locations. A hypersonic flight vehicle needs to be designed aerodynamically efficient. That results in rather small nose and leading edge radii which drives up

Luxury transpiration of winter wheat and its responses to deficit irrigation in North China Plain
Reducing crop luxury transpiration is an important step in improving water productivity; water shortage regions are potential hotspots for studying physiological water conservation.

Maize transpiration in response to meteorological conditions
Differences in transpiration of maize (Zea mays L.) plants in four soil moisture regimes were quantified in a pot experiment. The transpiration was measured by the “Stem Heat Balance” method.
