In our study, we used the measurement of water potential using a pressure chamber, and we compared the collected data with the data from the Nove Zamky meteorological station for the period 21.6.2023 - 22.8.2023. The aim of the work was to compare the data collected using water potential measurements from two locations in the Nove Zamky area with the corresponding meteorological data collected from the meteorological station also located in Nove Zamky. After data collection, we then determined whether the technolo...

Climate change is a very serious threat, and its consequences affect many different aspects of our lives. In Slovakia, we will also have to get used to the faster onset of warm and dry weather in the spring. The year, from a temperature point of view, ended as the 2nd warmest since 1931. Statistically very significant (annual) deviations occurred in the entire territory of Slovakia, so we characterize it in terms of temperature as strongly to extremely above normal. We monitored the influence of climatic condition...

Pervasive environmental stressors, particularly water deficits, have a major impact on plant production, diverting necessary energy away from growth and development to mitigate stress effects. This study addresses the impact of several water regimes (irrigated and non-irrigated) on royal walnut individuals (Juglans regia L.) in an orchard in western Slovakia. Our analysis focused on sap flow measurements using the stem heat balancing method from July 13 to September 21, 2021. In the midday hours, the sap flow rate...
