At the same time, a dendrometer continuously measures the tree's circumference and records when it expands due to water uptake, or contracts due to transpiration.

“Trees have a really beneficial impact upon surface temperatures through transpiration, which is similar to human sweating, and they have really cooled things off a lot,” said Barnes.

Thermal imaging and drones are calculating how much water trees are losing through transpiration; The technology helps farmers to know how much water to use for producing better, ...
