Relative Water Losses by Evaporation and Transpiration in Field Corn
1959
Peters, D. B. | Russell, M. B.
The separation of transpiration by corn and evaporation from the soil was experimentally accomplished, in the field, by covering the ground surface with polyethylene plastic. It was found that as much as 50% of total evapotranspiration could be accounted for by evaporation from the soil surface. Transpiration was found to be influenced in a minor way by plant population and soil moisture environment. Corn yields were depressed in only 1 year by elimination of summer rainfall.
