Studies on the Native Plants in the Coastal Sand Dune (III) Comparison of Leaf Temperature on the Shoot and Stolon Stem of Wedelia prostrata Hemsl

Abstract

The stolon and shoot stem leaf temperature of Wedelia prostrata Hemsl was investigated in comparison with the meteorological environmental conditions. The maximum leaf temperature was 33.4℃ in the case of the stolon stem and 40.5℃ on the shoot stem. However,the air temperature near the stolon stem leaf was 44.0℃,and the sand surface temperature was 63.0℃. The correlation coefficient between the leaf temperature and the meteorological conditions is as folIows: 1.Air temperature (x) and relative humidity (y) near the stem
