calc_transpiration_leaf(VPD, Tair, geff, Press)#

Calculates the water vapor source from the leaf.

Parameters:

  • VPD (float) – vapor pressure deficit [kPa]

  • Tair (float) – air temperature [deg C]

  • geff (float) – effective leaf conductance [mol m-2_leaf s-1]

  • Press (float) – air pressure [kPa]

Returns:

transpiration_leaf – water vapor source per unit leaf area [kg s-1 m-2_leaf]

Return type:

float
