3. Water Potential. Definition. @ Essential to understand water flow in the system soil--plant--atmosphere. @ Useful for evaluating plant water status. @ Quantitative measure of effect of water stress. @ Definitions: u Energy: Capacity to do work. u Free energy: Portion of a system’s energy that can perform work when temperature is uniform throughout the system.
3. Water Potential. Definition. @ Water Potential ( w): A measure of the free energy of water: u Symbol: Greek letter psi ( ) u Units: bar or Pascal (1 bar = 0. 1 MPa). u w of pure water is zero (by definition). u Solutes and other forces decrease water potential ( w <0) u For living organisms, w will be negative.

4. Water movement in the soil. @ Water content and rate of water movement in the soil depends mainly on the soil type. @ Processes: u Infiltration: Water penetration through the soil surface. (Runoff or evaporation affect). u Permeability: Water diffusion among soil particles. u Percolation: Movement of excess water deeper into the profile due to gravity.
4. Water movement in the soil. @ Classification u Hydration of water in the soil: water: That chemically bound to soil particles. Not available to plants. u Hygroscopic water: That tightly held by the soil (>3. 1 MPa of suction). Not available. u Capillary water: That filling soil micropores. Most of it is available. u Gravitational water: That moving in the soil by gravity through macropores. Available.
4. Water movement in the soil. @ Soil moisture constants: u Field Capacity: Moisture left in soil after gravity has drained macropores; micropores held water at 0. 03 MPa of suction. u Permanent Wilting Point: Moisture content at which a plant wilts and does not recover, even when under a humid environment. Water is being held at ca. 1. 5 MPa. u Easily Available Water: FC - PWP

5. Water movement in the plant. @ To the root surface: u Soil to root: Diffusion and bulk flow. u Roots growing into moist soil. @ Inside the plant: u Osmosis: Explains water movement across membranes. u Diffusion: Effective at cellular dimensions. u Bulk flow: Important for long distance transport via xylem.

5. Water movement in the plant. Water movement in the end is a result of differences in water potential.
