Transpiration & Thermal Profile

Thermal Signature: Broad leaf surface creates pronounced evaporative cooling gradients across fenestrations.

Care Biophysics: High transpiration volume requiring steady atmospheric humidity. Stomatal closure occurs rapidly below 45% relative humidity.

Early Warning Stress Indicators

  • Margin leaf browning (low VPD)
  • Guttation overload (root pressure)
  • Fenestration closure (light deficit)
