Non-invasive absolute measurement of leaf water content using terahertz quantum cascade lasers
Abstract Background Plant water resource management is one of the main future challenges to fight recent climatic changes. The knowledge of the plant water content could be indispensable for water saving strategies. Terahertz spectroscopic techniques are particularly promising as a non-invasive tool...
