Water Potential Ψw Concept Quantifies Capacity of Water to do Work (Free Energy)
Water Potential (ψ ) = Ability to Do Work (Measured in pressure units: MPa)
Solute Potential ѱs Osmosis:
Which has Higher Water Potential? (Effect of Dissolved Substances ѱs) 1 2
Which has Higher Water Potential? (Effect of Dissolved Substances ѱs)
Which has Higher Water Potential? (Effect of Gravity ѱg)
Pressure Potential (ѱp) Negative Pressure Potential: “Sucking In” / Inhaling” Positive Pressure Potential: “Blowing Out / Exhaling”
Water Potential (ψ ) = Ability to Do Work (Measured in pressure units: MPa) Fig. 6.5 in Molles 2010
Which soil has greater Water Potential? Wet Sand Wet Clay ψ1 ψ2
Which root water has greater Water Potential? (Effect of Dissolved Substances) ψ1 ψ2 = Solute
Predicting Direction of Water Flow: Soil Water Potential and Root Water Potential Roots ψ1 Soil ψ2
In Which System is there a Greater Difference in Water Potential 8 10 9 Dry Air Moist Air
