Results show that PRI reduced more transpiration rate than photosynthetic rate, which led to higher leaf WUE.
"With higher temperatures, there's more evaporation from soils, more transpiration from plants, earlier melting of snowpack and relatively more rain rather than snow," explained Noah Diffenbaugh, a senior fellow and professor of earth system science at Stanford University. .
The problem is that an opposite effect is just as plausible, as higher VPD typically causes more transpiration despite stomatal closure.

One reason for lower fertility in spikelets trapped in the leaf sheath may be a higher tissue temperature due to reduced transpiration, more so with combined water deficit and heat stress rather than a direct effect of water deficit.
Note that at 48 h, concentration of As was accumulated to a similar level in As-sensitive and As-tolerant accession, which possibly resulted from a more severely inhibited transpiration rate.
These findings suggest that the dramatic increase in the frequency of the 370A allele in East Asia could have been driven by selection favoring more efficient evapo-transpiration, although the authors also mentioned the possibility that reduced mammary fat pad size could also have been adaptive, or, given the clear pleiotropic effects of the 370A mutation, that selection acted on multiple traits.
It also causes more evapotranspiration [evaporation and transpiration of water from the water and earth into the atmosphere], leading to wetland drying out".
Tree transpiration is more sensitive to soil water stress than grass transpiration.
This could conserve more water by reducing transpiration to maintain high RWC.
The difference between leaf and air temperatures is commonly used as an indicator of rice water stress ([Long et al., 2006]), because leaf temperature is more strongly correlated with transpiration than with photosynthesis.
This adjustment made available 80% more soil water for transpiration by shrubs and trees than is commonly set for other moist forested climate zones of the western United States, and resulted in an R2 match of 0.89 between monthly tower measurements and CASA estimated NPP.
