Assessment of Different Water Use Efficiency Calculations for Dominant Forage Crops in the Great Lakes Basin

Assessment of Different Water Use Efficiency Calculations for Dominant Forage Crops in the Great Lakes Basin

Water use efficiency (WUE) can be calculated using a range of methods differing in carbon uptake and water use variable selection. Consequently, inconsistencies arise between WUE calculations due to complex physical and physiological interactions. The purpose of this study was to quantify and compar...
