Abstract
The temperature of a plant canopy, as seen by a scanning device, is determined by plant physiological processes and environmental conditions which interact in a complex manner not readily monitored by remote sensing devices. The physiology literature is briefly considered with a view to outlining factors that may be relevant in inferring soil water content from canopy temperature. Examples of energy fluxes and temperatures observed under field conditions are discussed.
