Microclimate and transpiration of greenhouse rose crops

TLDR
In this article, microclimate and transpiration of two greenhouse crops of roses (grafted and ungrafted) grown in rockwool were carried out during late spring and summer periods of 1989 to 1992 in the South of France.

Temperature Gradients in a Partially Shaded Large Greenhouse equipped with Evaporative Cooling Pads

TL;DR: In this article, a simple climate model is proposed which incorporates the effect of ventilation rate, roof shading and crop transpiration on greenhouse air temperature, and the model is calibrated by fitting temperatures in the middle and at the end of the greenhouse.

Model-based predictive control of greenhouse climate for reducing energy and water consumption

TL;DR: In this paper, an alternative to classical climate control is proposed based on an accurate non-linear model and a model-based predictive control (MBPC) that incorporates energy and water consumption.

Measurement and estimation of plastic greenhouse reference evapotranspiration in a Mediterranean climate

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors used free-drainage lysimeters to measure ETo inside a plastic greenhouse with a perennial grass in Almeria, south-eastern Spain.

Mitigating the Water Footprint of Export Cut Flowers from the Lake Naivasha Basin, Kenya

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors proposed a water-sustainability agreement between major agents along the cut-flower supply chain and included a premium to the final product at the retailer end of the supply chain.

Transpiration from geranium grown under high temperatures and low humidities in greenhouses

TL;DR: The agreement between measured and calculated transpiration was good for the wide range of temperature, radiation and humidity levels that occurred during the 42 days of the test and a simplified model of daytime transpiration based on easily measured variables is presented.

The Interpretation of the Variations in Leaf Water Potential and Stomatal Conductance Found in Canopies in the Field

TL;DR: In this paper, the stomatal conductance of illuminated leaves is a function of current levels of temperature, vapour pressure deficit, leaf water potential (really turgor pressure) and ambient CO $_2$ concentration and when plotted against any one of these variables a scatter diagram results.

Carbon Dioxide and Water Vapor Exchange in Response to Drought in the Atmosphere and in the Soil

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors describe the current hypotheses of how humidity and plant and soil water status may interact and regulate stomatal conductance and photosynthesis, and focus on the effects of 1. humidity, 2. leaf water potential and leaf turgor, and 3. soil Water status on leaf conductance, transpiration, and CO/sub 2/ assimilation.

Transpiration of greenhouse crops : an aid to climate management

TL;DR: In this paper, physical aspects of greenhouse climate are analyzed to show the direct interrelation between microclimate and crop transpiration, and it is shown that defining the transpiration rate as the criterion for the control of air humidity within a greenhouse would deliver a quantitative framework for that control.

The effect of climate on tomato transpiration in greenhouses : measurements and models comparison

TL;DR: In this article, the effect of climate on tomato transpiration in greenhouse tomato crops has been investigated and five transpiration models have been checked against measurements, including Stanghellini's and Jolliet's models.
