Determination of leaf water status via Sub-Terahertz-sensors

Project


Project code: 0315532D
Contract period: 01.11.2009 - 31.10.2013
Purpose of research: Basic research

In the sub-project S5, the potential of sub-THz-sensors for the non-invasive determination of the water content in plants will be evaluated. For that purpose we will build two sensor systems operating at different frequencies. Both devices will be transferred to our project partners in the crops group. The project partners will perform measurements on barley to identify characteristic measurands which may serve for developing optimized irrigation schemes.
