The water cycle is the vital Earth process that moves freshwater and moisture around the planet, and for the first time in human history, that system is breaking down. A new report from the Global ...

They quantified the impact of the disasters on the forest water cycle and tracked the recovery dynamics by comparing changes ...

Agricultural water use efficiency can be improved by minimizing soil evaporation losses relative to plant transpiration in the field. The ability to quantify soil evaporation and plant transpiration ...

Monstera plants, known for their unique, Swiss cheese-like leaves, have become a staple for indoor plant enthusiasts. However ...

ET refers to water loss through soil evaporation and plant transpiration (where water evaporates as plants "exhale" mainly through the stomata on their leaves). WUE refers to how much biomass is ...

Deserts are typically defined as regions where evaporation and transpiration (water release by plant tissues) exceeds precipitation, which is generally 25 cm/year (Noy-Meir 1973). Deserts occupy ...

Scientists have a variety of methods to estimate the amount of water ascending from the Earth's surface to the atmosphere due to evaporation and transpiration through plant leaves. Notably, ...

Remove leaves. Wind speed A higher wind speed will increase the rate of evaporation causing an increase in transpiration. Use a fan. Temperature A higher temperature will increase the rate of ...

Evaporation is the natural process of liquid water turning into water vapor. As Colorado and Western states heat up, more water evaporates into the atmosphere, leaving less for irrigation and ...

A continuous column of water is therefore pulled up the stem in the transpiration stream by evaporation from the leaves. As water travels through the xylem in the stem and leaf, it is being ...

The drought monitor report as of Tuesday, Nov. 5 shows improvement across the state. Barton County has improved some with the ...

Fall is here and the month of October will bring cooler and dryer weather to our gardens. Well, dryer except when hurricanes ...
