Description
Principles of Soil and Plant Water Relations is a definitive reference work that examines the critical interactions between soil water dynamics and plant physiology. The book provides an in-depth exploration of water potential, hydraulic conductivity, water retention characteristics, and the mechanisms by which plants extract water from soil.
Authored by M.B. Kirkham, a leading expert in soil and water relations, this text covers essential topics including soil water availability, root water uptake, transpiration, and the impact of environmental conditions on plant-water relationships. The work integrates theoretical concepts with practical applications relevant to agriculture, environmental science, and engineering.
Suitable for advanced students, researchers, and professionals, the book combines detailed scientific analysis with accessible explanations of complex phenomena. It serves as both a learning resource and a reference guide for understanding how plants respond to varying water conditions in different soil types.
