Abstract
Measurements of midday stem water potential (ψmd) and midday canopy temperature (IRmd) were carried out during three seasons in a fully irrigated citrus orchard [Citrus sinensis (L.) Osbeck] ‘Valencia Late’. The aim of the work was to assess the relationship between these parameters.
The data of infrared thermometer were used to build an empirical model.
The data obtained in the first two years allowed to calculate a linear function [ψmd=f(IRmd)] with a correlation coefficient (r) of -0.865. In the third year of the study, the regression model was tested with a validation procedure.
During the period of observation, ψmd data (observed and fitted) did not show significant statistical differences demonstrating the accuracy of the model.
