  2. Vapour-pressure deficit - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vapour-pressure_deficit

    Vapour pressure-deficit, or VPD, is the difference (deficit) between the amount of moisture in the air and how much moisture the air can hold when it is saturated. Once air becomes saturated, water will condense to form clouds, dew or films of water over leaves.

  3. Vapor pressure - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vapor_pressure

    Vapor pressure [a] or equilibrium vapor pressure is the pressure exerted by a vapor in thermodynamic equilibrium with its condensed phases (solid or liquid) at a given temperature in a closed system. The equilibrium vapor pressure is an indication of a liquid's thermodynamic tendency to evaporate.

  4. Penman–Monteith equation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Penman–Monteith_equation

    δe = vapor pressure deficit (Pa) g a = Conductivity of air, atmospheric conductance (m s −1) g s = Conductivity of stoma, surface or stomatal conductance (m s −1) γ = Psychrometric constant (γ ≈ 66 Pa K −1) Note: Often, resistances are used rather than conductivities.

    A UCLA professor used artificial intelligence to study wildfire data, focusing on vapor pressure deficit. Wildfires ravaged the western United States this year, with some of the biggest fires in ...

  6. Vapour pressure of water - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vapour_pressure_of_water

    The vapor pressure of water is the pressure exerted by molecules of water vapor in gaseous form (whether pure or in a mixture with other gases such as air). The saturation vapor pressure is the pressure at which water vapor is in thermodynamic equilibrium with its condensed state .

  7. Canopy conductance - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Canopy_conductance

    By definition, it is calculated as a ratio of daily water use to daily mean vapor pressure deficit (VPD). [1] Canopy conductance can be also experimentally obtained by measuring sap flow and environmental variables. [2]

  8. Soil-plant-atmosphere continuum - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Soil-plant-atmosphere...

    Physiology of plants and animals characterizes water in organisms in terms of diffusion pressure deficit, and; Meteorology uses vapour pressure or relative humidity to characterize atmospheric water. SPAC integrates these components and is defined as a:

    Playing in Game 2 of a three-game series, and having already lost the first game, the Dynamo were feeling the pressure when Herrera was whistled for a foul and handed a yellow card in the 65th minute.
