Abstract

Research is ongoing to increase our understanding on the mechanisms responsible for the variation in energy fluxes in greenhouses. In this study, a four-year experiment (2016, 2017, 2019, and 2020) was carried out to investigate the energy budget for drip-irrigated tomato plants in a greenhouse, where the latent heat flux (λET) was measured by two weighing lysimeters. Factors that determine energy budget and λET were also investigated. The results indicated that λET was the principal component of net radiation (Rn), accounting for 66.4–71.7%, followed by sensible heat flux (H) and ground soil heat flux (G). The low values (0.25–0.32) of the seasonal mean midday Bowen ratio (β=H/λET) also indicated that seasonal λET was greater than H for well-watered tomato plants. Leaf area index (LAI) strongly influenced the energy budget. The ratio λET/Rn increased linearly as LAI increased, whereas H/Rn decreased linearly and G/Rn and β decreased logarithmically. Seasonal mean λET was 76.8±4.7 W m−2, which was less than the reported values for field crops. This difference was attributed to the semi-closed microclimate in the greenhouse. The high values of the Priestley–Taylor coefficient (α=1.03±0.05) and the decoupling factor (0.69±0.05) showed that λET was principally determined by Rn. These values support the conclusion that λET was energy limited rather than water limited in the greenhouse. Canopy conductance (Gc) also influenced λET as indicated by the high correlation between α and Gc, especially during the middle growth stage. These findings are of great importance in creating an energy-driven model and will lead to improved water management in greenhouse agriculture.
