Sentence examples for a decrease in transpiration from inspiring English sources

The higher CO2 concentration inside the leaf air space during low pressure treatments may result in higher CO2 assimilation and partial stomata closure, resulting in a decrease in transpiration rate.

In addition to increased drainage and/or FPC, the increase in soil moisture resulting from a decrease in transpiration may result in increased soil evaporation (Es).

Increases in water availability with elevation may result from several factors in the northeast, including increased precipitation, a decrease in transpiration caused by lower temperatures, and the tendency for mid-elevation soils to be derived from deeper deposits of fine-textured glacial till.

As a result, the report notes, the deterioration of the rainforest – through logging, fires and land clearance – has resulted in a decrease in forest transpiration and a lengthening of dry seasons.

Suresh et al. [ 14] observed a decrease in stomatal conductance and transpiration rate with increasing Mn content in soybean [ Glycine max (L). Merr.] and concluded that Mn interfered with stomatal regulation.

Thus, the decrease in transpiration combined with a reduction of surface roughness due to deforestation suppresses the flux of sensible heat from the surface that in turn will increase the surface temperature.

However, our data showed that the decrease in transpiration rate and stomatal conductance was associated with an increase in root Ca and N concentration.

Furthermore, water-use efficiency will increase at higher CO2 concentration levels owing to the expected decrease in transpiration and increase in photosynthesis (if the leaf temperature is constant).

Furthermore, the decrease in transpiration following fruit removal suggests changes in stomatal conductance since all environmental conditions were kept constant.

Increased SSC also indicates changes in the leaves' osmotic potential, which may have led to the observed decrease in transpiration (Table  1, Figs  3E and 6E).

Nevertheless, most findings suggest that a decrease in VPD generally leads to decreased steady-state leaf transpiration or sap flux density in a wide range of tree species from different habitats (Pataki et al. 1998; Meinzer 2003; Bovard et al. 2005; Hölscher et al. 2005).
