Soil, Plant and Atmosphere: Concepts, Processes and Applications

Soil, Plant and Atmosphere Concepts, Processes and

This textbook presents the concepts and processes involved in the soil plant atmosphere system and its applications in agriculture. Chapters start at the graduation and proceed to post doctoral level, helping students understand and develop their thoughts on these subjects.

Soil plant atmosphere continuum

The soil plant atmosphere continuum (SPAC) is the pathway for water moving from soil through plants to the atmosphere.Continuum in the description highlights the continuous nature of water connection through the pathway. The low water potential of the atmosphere, and relatively higher (i.e. less negative) water potential inside leaves, leads to a diffusion gradient across the stomatal pores of ...

This textbook presents the concepts and processes involved in the soil plant atmosphere system as well as its applications in the water cycle in agriculture. Although reaching the frontier of our knowledge in several subjects, each chapter starts at the graduation level and proceeds to the post doctoral level.

Soil Plant Atmosphere Continuum an overview

M.B. Kirkham, in Principles of Soil and Plant Water Relations (Second Edition), 2014. Abstract. This chapter gives the history of the soil–plant–atmosphere continuum (SPAC) and tells of early researchers who pioneered the concept. The analogy for water movement through the SPAC and the flow of electricity is then presented.
