Detailed knowledge of energy and mass fluxes between land and the atmosphere are
necessary to monitor the climate of the land and effectively exploit it in growing agricultural …

Models for the evapotranspiration of greenhouse crops are needed both for accurate
irrigation and for the simulation or management of the greenhouse climate. For this purpose …

Evapotranspiration (ET) is the total amount of water lost from evaporation and transpiration
via plant growing media and plant surfaces. ET models have been widely researched for …

Even though several models to predict evapotranspiration (ET) of greenhouse crops have
been developed, previous studies have evaluated them under fixed greenhouse conditions …

Reducing water consumption in greenhouses is one of the main concerns for growers. This
implies better knowledge of the transpiration process in order to adapt water inputs to plant …

Stanghellini model is one of the few models primarily developed to predict the
evapotranspiration of crops (ETc) in naturally ventilated greenhouses. However, there are …

Tomato crops are increasingly cultivated in winter in solar greenhouses to achieve high
economic benefit in the North China Plain (NCP). Accurate predictions of crop transpiration …

Novelty Statement In general, two key parameters in transpiration models, canopy
resistance and aerodynamic resistance, are difficult to determine, and the measured …

Domestication of plants by man through greenhouse crop production has revolutionized
agricultural farming systems worldwide. Selecting the appropriate greenhouse technology …

Water supply is an essential to the normal growth of plants, due to too much or insufficient
water can seriously confine the yield and quality of greenhouse crops. The traditional …
