Abstract/Contents:"Previous research has established a new method (heat balance) for measuring water use in trees and herbaceous plants. We conducted an experiment to test this method on wax leaf ligistrum (Ligistrum japonicum) in a growth chamber and in the field to evaluate its accuracy and its potential for measuring water use of shrubs in landscape environments. Our study provided further evidence that the heat balance method is a useful tool for measuring plant water use."
