Field heterogeneity of soil texture controls leaf water potential spatial distribution predicted from UAS-based vegetation indices in non-irrigated vineyards by L. Delval, J. Bates, J. Bates, F. Jonard, F. Jonard, M. Javaux, M. Javaux

“…By combining multilinear vegetation indices from very-high-spatial-resolution multispectral, thermal, and lidar imageries collected with uncrewed aerial systems (UASs), we efficiently and robustly captured the spatial distribution of <span class="inline-formula">Ψ_leaf</span> across both vineyards on different dates. Our results demonstrated that in non-irrigated vineyards, the spatial distribution of <span class="inline-formula">Ψ_leaf</span> was mainly governed by the within-vineyard soil hydraulic conductivity heterogeneity (<span class="inline-formula"><i>R</i>²</span> up to 0.81) and was particularly marked when the evaporative demand and the soil water deficit increased, since the range of <span class="inline-formula">Ψ_leaf</span> was greater, up to 0.73 MPa, in these conditions. …”
