Transpiration rate is high with good airflow as water vapor is swept away, maintaining a low external water concentration and promoting rapid diffusion.
Le taux de transpiration est élevé en cas de bon flux d'air car la vapeur d'eau est emportée, maintenant une faible concentration d'eau à l'extérieur de la feuille et favorisant une diffusion rapide.
| Front | Why is transpiration rate high around good airflow? |
|---|---|
| Back | If there is good air flow, the water vapour is swept away, maintaining a low concentration of water in the air outside the leaf. Diffusion then happens quickly, from an area of higher concentration to an area of lower concentration. |
