Transpiration: Water Use Efficiency

2007
The balance between carbon assimilation (net photosynthetic production) and the throughput of water by transpiration (resource use in terms of water) results in a benefit–cost ratio of interest to eco-physiologists and crop physiologists, known as water use efficiency.

The contribution of transpiration and respiration processes in the mass loss of pomegranate fruit (cv. Wonderful)

Postharvest Biology and Technology, 2019
Mass loss from fresh produce is associated with quality degradation during storage. Though transpiration is the main process, respiration can significantly contribute to mass loss, especially at higher than normal humidity conditions where the ...

A mimetic transpiration system for record high conversion efficiency in solar steam generator under one-sun

Materials Today Energy, 2018
Currently, direct solar steam generator based on suspending plasmonic solar absorber and floating porous photothermal convertors still suffered from high optical concentrations, poor productivity rates, high expenses and complicated fabrication processes.

Modeling transpiration and leaf temperature of urban trees – A case study evaluating the microclimate model ENVI-met against measurement data

Landscape and Urban Planning, 2018
Increasing vegetation cover in cities is a key approach to mitigating urban heat excess. However, both the effect of vegetation on microclimate and the plants’ vitality need to be assessed to support and quantify the effects of such strategies.

Night-Time Transpiration - Favouring Growth?

Trends in Plant Science, 2019
Plants grow and transpire water during the day and night. Recent work highlights the idea that night-time transpirational water loss is a consequence of allowing respiratory CO2 to escape at sufficiently high rates through stomata.

Uncertainties in transpiration estimates

Nature, 2014
arising from S. Jasechko et al. Nature 496, 347-350 (2013)10.1038/nature11983How best to assess the respective importance of plant transpiration over evaporation from open waters, soils and short-term storage such as tree canopies and understories (interception) has long been debated. On the basis of data from lake catchments, Jasechko et al.

Aquaporins and plant transpiration

Plant, Cell & Environment, 2016
AbstractAlthough 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. The present review first examines the various facets of aquaporin function in stomatal guard cells and shows that it involves transport of water but also

Influence of shock waves on supersonic transpiration cooling

International Journal of Heat and Mass Transfer, 2019
This paper experimentally and numerically investigates the effect of shock waves on transpiration cooling of a porous plate. The experiments were conducted in a wind tunnel of Mach number 2.8, wherein oblique shock waves were impinged onto the porous ...
