Abstract: | Some forests in the Asian monsoon region are reported to transpire actively, even in the late dry season. The evergreen forest
in central Cambodia is included in them. The surface conductance was estimated for an evergreen forest in central Cambodia
in the late dry (May) and rainy (August) seasons, and the effects of environmental conditions on surface conductance were
compared between seasons. The effects of soil moisture did not differ between seasons, indicating that soil water drought
in the late dry season does not limit transpiration from the entire forest community. Evergreen forests in central Cambodia
are thought to transpire actively in the late dry season. |
