{"product_id":"evapotranspiration-giacomo-gerosa-9789533075129","title":"Evapotranspiration: From Measurements to Agricultural and Environmental Applications","description":"This book represents an overview of the direct measurement techniques of evapotranspiration with related applications to the water use optimization in the agricultural practice and to the ecosystems study. Different measuring techniques at leaf level (porometry), plant-level (sap-flow, lysimetry) and agro-ecosystem level (Surface Renewal, Eddy Covariance, Multi layer BREB), are presented with detailed explanations and examples. For the optimization of the water use in agriculture, detailed measurements on transpiration demands of crops and different cultivars, as well as results of different irrigation schemes and techniques (i.e. subsurface drip) in semi-arid areas for open-field, greenhouse and potted grown plants are presented. Aspects on ET of crops in saline environments, effects of ET on groundwater quality in xeric environments as well as the application of ET to climatic classification are also depicted. The book provides an excellent overview for both, researchers and student, s who intend to address these issues\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Giacomo Gerosa\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 9533075120\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9789533075129\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Intechopen\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 11\/09\/2011\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 424\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.92lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.61h x 6.69w x 0.94d","brand":"Giacomo Gerosa","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":48137022439679,"sku":"9789533075129","price":179.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_89d72980-72b3-44f6-b2e8-0a83323b3f29.jpg?v=1770166023","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/evapotranspiration-giacomo-gerosa-9789533075129","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
