Abstract/Contents:"There is increasing pressure in arid regions to conserve water, especially during drought cycles. Turfgrass constitutes the largest irrigated area in the United States and is coming under scrutiny for water use in urban ecosystems. The purpose of this study is to evaluate responses of remote sensors to irrigation and nitrogen (N) regimes of Kentucky Bluegrass (Poa Pratensis). A plot study was conducted in 2017 and 2018 in Provo Utah with a full factorial design of three levels of nitrogen fertilizer (Deficient, Optimum, and excessive) and three irrigation practices (well watered, limited water, and drought stressed) with three replications. Remote sensors were an Infrared Radiometer for measuring the turf canopy temperature and a spectral reflectance sensor for measuring the NDVI, both permanently mounted on masts above the plots. Canopy temperature data was used to calculate the following water stress indices: Degrees Above Non Stressed (DANS) and Crop Water Stress Index (CWSI). The remote sensing data will be compared against measured soil water potential, soil water content, and plant growth parameters and the results will be used to suggest whether the remote sensing approaches can improve irrigation scheduling."
