Cornell University researchers have created the world's first synthetic tree. So far, it's a very small 'tree' which stands in a palm-sized piece of hydrogel. This 'tree simulates the process of ...
Figure 1: δ 18 O and δ 2 H values of groundwater, stream water, plant xylem water and soil water at 47 globally distributed sites. To quantify the similarities or differences between waters used by ...
Purdue Landscape Report: Water covers approximately 71% of Earth’s surface, yet only 3% of the 326 million cubic miles of water on the planet is suitable for growing crops, such as trees. It can be ...
As temperatures rise in July and August, transpiration from plants might add to the humidity. One plant that gets more blame than others is corn, said Dan Quinn, assistant professor of agronomy and ...
Everyone knows that trees combat climate change by absorbing carbon dioxide out of the air. Now, plant leaves are tackling global warming in another way — by serving as models for a technology that ...

LOUISVILLE, Ky. (WAVE) - Evapotranspiration is responsible for 15% of our atmosphere's water vapor. Evapotranspiration is the combination of evaporation and transpiration. Both processes release water ...
The status of water in soil and vegetation was monitored in a stand of crested wheatgrass (Agropyron cristatum) and a nearby shortgrass steppe during a growing season. This was done to determine if ...
A research team successfully developed a solar-powered artificial plant device and rapidly purified soil contaminated with radioactive cesium. This device, which mimics plant transpiration, can ...
