| Abstract/Contents: | "Water consumption of urban green turfgrass draws people's attention as the conflict of water resources supply and demand has become prominent increasingly in our country. Turfgrass evapotranspiration (ET), as an important indicator of turfgrass reasonable irrigation, has attracted a widespread attention and become one of the hot spots concerning turfgrass researches. Some research results have already become guidelines for the design of turfgrass irrigation system and the management of water consumption. This review summarized over 90 papers from home and abroad on forestry, crop production and the prairie since the 1980s. Relationships of turf canopy structure and ET was reviewed from physiological ecology, modeling and its application. Several issues were proposed to further study. Turfgrass ET is also affected by turfgrass canopy structure besides climate. Leaf area index, leaf density, canopy growth rate, mean tilt angle and thatch characteristics are the parameters of canopy characteristics. The total ET of turf is determined as biology factor along with atmosphere condition and soil moisture availability. In addition, canopy characteristics are subjected to be influenced by management measures which directly or indirectly affect ET. Both turf ET and water consumption could be reduced by rational conservation and management. Plant ET model based on canopy parameters has been widely applied to predict ET in forestry and crop production. However, researches on ET model of urban turfgrass are rarely reported. Turf canopy is stable and simple structured, it is convenient to establish the functional relationships between canopy parameters and ET.The relationships between turf canopy characteristics and ET has important influence on both forecasting urban turf ET and guiding water-saving irrigation." |
