Work and Research
My research focuses on water and energy exchange in soil-plant-atmosphere continuum. Eddy covariance technique observations were made on annual rainfed hilly crops, at watershed scale and on irrigated orchards. In addition, research on deficit irrigation applied to fruit trees, plant water status, and water productivity were conducted. All studies were under the Mediterranean region and the semi arid climate conditions.
