Water balance , transpiration and canopy conductance in two beech stands
Measurements of sap flow, vapour fluxes, throughfall and soil water content were conducted for 19 months in a young beech stand growing at low elevation, in the Hesse forest. This experiment is part of the Euroflux network, covering 15 representative European forests. Study of the radial variation of sap flow within tree trunks, showed a general pattern of sap flux density in relation to the de...
متن کاملAssociation of transpiration efficiency with N2 fixation of peanut under early season drought
Peanut is grown mostly in rainfed areas where drought is a recurring problem. Peanut genotypes with high transpiration efficiency (TE) use less water and produced yield better under drought conditions. Specific leaf area and SPAD chlorophyll meter reading are used as surrogate traits for TE. N2 fixation (NF) is also used as a surrogate trait for yield under drought. The objective of this study ...
متن کاملImprovement of FAO - 56 model to estimate transpiration fluxes of 1 drought tolerant crops under soil water deficit : An application for 2 olive groves
16 Agro-hydrological models are considered an economic and simple tool to quantify crop water 17 requirements. In the last two decades, agro-hydrological physically based models have been 18 developed to simulate mass and energy exchange processes in the soil-plant-atmosphere 19 system. Although very reliable, due to the high number of required variables, simplified 20 models have been proposed...
متن کاملPartitioning of water flux in a Sierra Nevada ponderosa pine plantation
The weather patterns of the west side of the Sierra Nevada Mountains (cold, wet winters and hot, dry summers) strongly influence how water is partitioned between transpiration and evaporation and result in a specific strategy of water use by ponderosa pine trees (Pinus ponderosa) in this region. To investigate how year-round water fluxes were partitioned in a young ponderosa pine ecosystem in t...
متن کاملA state-space modeling approach to estimating canopy conductance and associated uncertainties from sap flux density data.
Uncertainties in ecophysiological responses to environment, such as the impact of atmospheric and soil moisture conditions on plant water regulation, limit our ability to estimate key inputs for ecosystem models. Advanced statistical frameworks provide coherent methodologies for relating observed data, such as stem sap flux density, to unobserved processes, such as canopy conductance and transp...
