Cornell University researchers have created the world's first synthetic tree. So far, it's a very small 'tree' which stands in a palm-sized piece of hydrogel. This 'tree simulates the process of ...

The term "corn sweat" refers to water transpiration from corn. Like all plants, corn absorbs water for growth, and then releases excess water through their leaves. With massive plots of corn, like the ...

Transpiration is simply a release of water vapor by plants, and it's a big part of the overall water cycle. The water cycle is Mother Nature's way of recycling, very efficiently I might add, water on ...

A new study shows that machine-learning models can accurately predict daily crop transpiration using direct plant measurements and environmental data. By training models on seven years of ...

Groundwater evapotranspiration (ETGW) and water table dynamics represent a pivotal interplay between subsurface hydrological processes and the atmospheric demands of evaporation and plant ...
