Water Dynamics in Plant Production / Wilfried Ehlers, University of Geottingen, Germany and Michael Goss, University of Guelph, Canda

This edition of Water Dynamics in Plant Production describes the basic scientific principles of water transport in the soil-plant-atmosphere continuum, and explains the linkage between transpirational water use and dry matter production. Paying particular attention to the various agronomic strategies for adaptation to climate-driven limitations of water resources, the efficiency of water use in plant production and in achieving an economic yield is presented in detail.
