Greenhouse canopy transpiration not only has effects on greenhouse air temperature and humidity, but also is important for determining the set-point of fertigation. In this study, Penman-Monteith equation was used to ...
I. INTRODUCTION The canopy temperature is decided by heat and vapor flux in SPAC. During the day, transpiration is the main mode of consuming excess heat in watered fields. When the soil moisture is not adequate to me...
