A simple framework to analyze water constraints on seasonal transpiration in rubber tree (Hevea brasiliensis) plantations

Climate change and fast extension in climatically suboptimal areas threaten the sustainability of rubber tree cultivation. A simple framework based on reduction factors of potential transpiration was tested to evaluate the water constraints on seasonal transpiration in tropical sub-humid climates, a...
