Free Virtual Seminar: Water Potential 101

20 September 2012 by Dr. Doug Cobos

Is water potential a tool that sits unused in your measurement toolbox? In this free virtual seminar, find out why you should use water potential more often and how advances in instrumentation science are making measurements easier to get.

Learn how water potential measurements can be used to: 

• Indicate plant stress
• Facilitate comparisons between different plots and treatments
• Optimize irrigation

Dr. Doug Cobos will also discuss the theory of water potential, describe what makes it different from water content, break down its component parts (matric potential, osmotic potential, etc.), and discuss important water potential levels in the environment.
