A leaf sensor is a phytometric device (measurement of plant physiological processes) that measures water loss or the water deficit stress (WDS) in plants by real-time monitoring the moisture level in plant leaves. Photometric devices measure the physiological responses of a plant or group of plants to various environmental factors. The leaf sensor approximates the thermal mass and radiative properties […]
