Principles of Soil and Plant Water Relations combines biology and
physics to show how water moves through the soil-plant-atmosphere
continuum. This text explores the instrumentation and the methods
used to measure the status of water in soil and plants. The basic
methods of tensiometry, pyschrometry, stomatal porometry, as well
as newer methods of tension infiltrometry; time domain
reflectometry are examined. Principles are clearly presented with
the aid of diagrams, anatomical figures, and images of
instrumentation. An added feature includes short biographies of
important scientists at the end of each chapter.
Intended for graduate students in plant and soil science programs,
this book also serves as a useful reference for agronomists, plant
ecologists, and agricultural engineers
