Upload NowAfter reading this article you will learn about the relationship between thermal conductivity and diffusivity. In thermal conductivity and diffusivity the movement of heat in the soil will be considered. Because it is found that much of the solar radiation is dissipated into the atmosphere. Part of it, however, moves slowly through the soil profile […]

Soil-Plant Atmosphere Continuum (SPAC)
Article shared by :
This article provides notes on Soil-Plant Atmosphere Continuum (SPAC). “Because water is generally free to move across the plant-soil, soil-atmosphere, and plant atmosphere interfaces it is necessary and desirable to view the water transfer system in the three domains of soil, plant and atmosphere as a whole…it must be pointed out that, as well as […]
