고품질 농산물을 대량 생산하기 위한 가장 중요한 것은 적절한 관개관리이다. 생육시기별 작물 재배에 있어서 꼭 필요한 만큼의 물을 필요한 때에 준다면, 농업용수를 절약할 수 있을 뿐만 아니라, 작물의 한발 및 습해에 따른 피해를 최소화 할 수 있을 것이다. 기존의 토양 및 증발산량 기반의 자동 물관리 기술의 경우 직접적으로 작물의 상태변화를 실시간으로 확인할 수 없으며, 측정오차가 크고 작물수량이 많을 경우 측정시간 및 소요비용이 크다는 단점이 있다. 이를 극복하기 위해 최근 작물의 수분 스트레스를 비파괴적으로 측정하여 관개계획에 활용하는 연구가 해외에서 활발히 이루어지고 있다. 본 연구에서는 열영상 기술을 활용한 적정 관개계획 수립과 관련된 국내외 연구 사례를 소개하고, 오이를 대상으로 토양수분함량 변화에 따른 엽온 변화를 측정하고, 실시간으로 작물의 수분스트레스 여부를 분석하기 위한 예비실험을 실시하였다. 엽온 측정을 위해 적외선 센서(CT-300-232, DiWell, Korea)를 사용하였으며, 관개조건에 따른 엽온 및 FDR센서를 이용하여 토양수분변화를 모니터링 하였다. 세 가지 토양수분조건, 즉 200% $ET_c$(과다관개), 100% $ET_c$(적정관개), 30% $ET_c$(과소관개),을 시험구에 조성하고, 각각의 처리구에 따른 엽온변화를 측정하였다. 동일한 대기온도하에서 엽온의 변화를 살펴본 결과, 과소관개한 시험구에서의 엽온변화 폭이 가장 컸으며, 적정관개의 엽온 변화폭이 가장 작게 나타났다. 이는 물관리 조건에 따라 많이 줘도, 적게 줘도 스트레스 요인으로 작용함을 확인할 수 있었다. 향후 연구에서는 실시간 엽온자료와 더불어 기상자료를 활용하여 작물 수분스트레스 지수(Crop Water Stress Index, CWSI)을 산정하고, 이를 관개시설 운영 및 제어에 활용하기 위한 모듈 개발을 수행할 계획이다.

작물의 체온인 엽온은 작물의 증발산량 또는 작물의 스트레스와 관련이 있으며, 일반적으로 일사, 풍속, 습도 등 기상조건과 잎의 크기, 형태 등 생리작용 등에 의해 지배된다. 엽온을 작물의 수분스트레스지수, 증발산량 등을 산정하기 위한 인자로 많이 활용되고 있으며, 최근 ICT 기술의 발달로 인해 열영상 카메라, 적외선 센서 등을 활용해서 실시간 측정을 하고, 정보를 작물 생육환경 제어에 활용하는 연구들이 많이 이루어지고 있다. 본 연구에서는 시설오이를 대상으로 캐노피 온도(Canopy temperature, $T_c$)와 대기온도(Air temperature, $T_a$)간의 상관관계, 또 ($T_c-T_a$)와 포화수증기압차(Vapor pressure deficit, VPD)와의 관계를 분석하였다. 대기온도와 상대습도를 이용하여 산정된 VPD가 엽온에 미치는 영향을 분석한 결과, 엽온 증가에 따라 VPD가 증가하였으며, 캐노피와 대기온도간의 차이 또한 VPD간에 음의 상관관계($R^2=0.82{\sim}0.89$)가 나타났는데, 이는 대기온도에 따른 엽온과 포화수증기압의 상승이 원인인 것으로 나타났다. ($T_c-T_a$)와 VPD값을 이용하면 작물 수분스트레스(Crop Water Stress Index, CWSI)를 산정할 수 있는 데, 결과값을 분석한 결과 $T_c$와 $T_a$의 차가 적은 경우 CWSI값이 증가함을 알 수 있었다. 향후 연구에서는 추가적으로 다양한 재배환경에서의 캐노피 온도, 포화수증기압차, 그리고 CWSI를 산정하여, 적정 생육 환경조성을 위한 지표로 활용할 계획이다.

High-pressure sodium (HPS) lamps have been widely used as a useful supplemental light source to emit sufficient photosynthetically active radiation and provide a radiant heat, which contribute the heat requirement in greenhouses. The objective of this study to analyze the thermal characteristics of HPS lamp and thermal behavior in supplemented greenhouse, and evaluate the performance of a horizontal leaf temperature of sweet pepper plants using computational fluid dynamics (CFD) simulation. We simulated horizontal leaf temperature on upper canopy according to three growth stage scenarios, which represented 1.0, 1.6, and 2.2 plant height, respectively. We also measured vertical leaf and air temperature accompanied by heat generation of HPS lamps. There was large leaf to air temperature differential due to non-uniformity in temperature. In our numerical calculation, thermal energy of HPS lamps contributed of 50.1% the total heat requirement on Dec. 2022. The CFD model was validated by comparing measured and simulated data at the same operating condition. Mean absolute error and root mean square error were below 0.5, which means the CFD simulation values were highly accurate. Our result about vertical leaf and air temperature can be used in decision making for efficient thermal energy management and crop growth.

As paprika plants grew in a glass greenhouse from November 2022 to March 2023, the amount of light at each plant height, leaf temperature, transpiration rate, and water vapor pressure were measured. Accumulated leaf temperature was higher at the top of the plant than at the bottom. Over time, the leaf temperature measured around 11-13 AM changed from 26.55→23.21→22.80→26.67℃ in the lower part (pL), and from 26.52→24.48→24.55→27.78℃ in the upper part (pAs). And VPD changed from 1.45→0.94→0.74→1.46kPa in pL and from 1.11→0.86→0.71→1.28kPa in pAs. Accordingly, the transpiration rate changed from 4.25→0.17→4.08→0.52mmol·m^-2·s^-1 in pL, 7.61→2.45→1.94→4.39→0.52mmol·m^-2·s^-1 in pAs, and from pAs to pL. It was significantly higher than The difference between the lower and upper parts (pL-pAs) was higher in pAs than pL in leaf temperature, light intensity, and transpiration rate, but the water vapor pressure difference was higher in pL. In this way, paprika shows differences in the environment and photosynthetic factors between the upper and lower parts during the cultivation period, so it is judged that this needs to be taken into consideration in future research.

The study was performed to calculate canopy temperatures and crop water stress index (CWSI) of 2-year-old 'Yumi' peach trees using thermal infrared imaging under different soil water conditions, and to evaluate availability for water stress determination. Canopy temperatures showed similar daily variations to air temperatures and they were higher during the daytime than air temperatures. Canopy temperatures for 24 h were correlated highly to air temperatures (r² =0.95), solar radiations (r² =0.74), and relative humidity (r² =-0.88). In addition, soil water potential showed a highly negative correlation to canopy temperatures (r² =-0.57), temperature differences between leaf and air (TD) (r² =-0.71), and CWSI (r² =-0.72) during the daytime (11 to 16 h). CWSI for 24 h was highly related to canopy temperatures (r² =0.90) and TD (r² =0.92), whereas CWSI was not correlated to soil water potential (r² =-0.27) for 24 h but related highly to water potential (r² =-0.72) during the daytime (11 to 16 h). Correlation coefficients between CWSI (y) and soil water potential (x) were highest from 11 to 12 h and a regression equation was deduced as y = -0.0087x + 0.14. CWSI was calculated as 0.575 at -50 kPa, which soil water stress generally occurs. Thus our result suggests that this regression equation using thermal infrared imaging is useful to evaluate soil water stress of peach trees.

This experiment was conducted to investigate the effect on chlorophyll fluorescence, stem sap flux relative rate (SFRR) and leaf temperature of cucumber when irrigation is controlled using a soil moisture tensiometer. Cucumber (Cucumis sativus L.) 'Chungchun' was irrigated of 10-10-20 kPa and 20-10-10 kPa by soil starting point of irrigation at each growth stage. At the 66 days after treatment (DAT) of 736 to 854 W·m-2 and above 32℃, chlorophyll fluorescence variables (Fo, Fm, Fv/Fm) values showed significantly different between treatments. The Fo and Fv/Fm value in the daytime (10:30 am to 6:00 pm) at 66 DAT was higher in 20-10-10 kPa treatment than in 10-10-20 kPa treatment. The Fv/Fm value decreased when the leaf temperature was increased. There was no difference in leaf growth (length, width and area) at 28 and 66 DAT, but the chlorophyll content (SPAD value) was significantly higher in 20-10-10kPa treatment. SFRR and leaf temperature increased with light intensity and temperature increased. In both treatments, the SFRR started to increase sharply between 8 am and 9 am when the solar radiation is 170 W·m-2 or higher. The soil temperature of the treatments decreased after irrigation, that showed 31.0℃ at 10-10-20kPa and 28.5℃ at 20-10-10kPa on July 5 (820W·m-2 at 1 pm). However, there was no difference in SFRR, leaf temperature, temperature difference (leaf temperature - air temperature) and VPD between treatments. SFRR was significantly positive correlate with the leaf temperature (p < 0.01, r = 0.770). The SFRR and leaf temperature showed positive significant correlation with solar radiation, temperature, soil temperature, soil moisture content and VPD. There was a negative significant correlation with relative humidity and temperature difference.

To investigate effects of water stress on apparent photosynthetic, transpiration rates, leaf orientation, yield and its related traits, four soybean varieties were planted on the Wagner pots in a plastic house covered with polyethylene film. As the light intensity and leaf temperature in a day increased, the movement of central leaflet in the second leaf of main stem occurred earlier than that of the lateral leaflet. The apparent photosynthetic rate of the central leaflet was higher than that of the lateral leaflet, but light intercept and leaf temperature of lateral leaflet were higher than those of the central leaflet. The apparent photosynthetic rate had highly positive correlation with the photon flux density, stomatal conductance and temperature, respectively. The photon flux density, stomatal conductance, transpiration and photosynthetic rates in the control were significantly higher than those in the water stress plot. The yield and its related traits in the water stress plot became decreased significantly in comparison with the control.

Photosynthetic inhibition to temperature were conducted with ginseng(4 year old) and tobacco(var. Bulgaria). The plants were kept under various temperature conditions from 1$0^{\circ}C$ to 4$0^{\circ}C$ and 440$\mu$E/$m^2$/sec for 3 and 6hrs, and net $CO_2$ uptake were measured after 2hrs at $25^{\circ}C$. Photosynthetic optimal leaf temperature of ginseng was 21$^{\circ}C$ and tobacco was $25^{\circ}C$. Stomatal resistance and mesophyll resistance increased at high temperature. Especially, stomatal resistance seemed to have a significant role in determining the temperature responses of photosynthesis. In tobacco photosynthetic capacity was not changed by temperature treatment for 3hrs. However, 6hrs exposure reduced 8% of net photosynthesis at 4$0^{\circ}C$ and 12% at 1$0^{\circ}C$. Ginseng plants exposed for 6hrs at 4$0^{\circ}C$ lost photosynthetic capacity by 83%. Temperature responses of ginseng were very sensitive at above-optimum temperature resulting greater thermal inhibition other than photoinhibition.

The biotic stress of garlic and tobacco infected by bacteria and virus was evaluated using a thermal imaging camera in a growth chamber. The remote sensing technique using the thermal camera detected that garlic leaf temperature increased when the leaves were infected by bacterial soft rot of garlic. Furthermore, the temperature of leaf was relatively high for the leaves where the colony-forming unit per mL was large. Such temperature patterns were detected for tobacco leaves infected by Cucumber Mosaic Virus using thermal images. In addition, the crop water stress index (CWSI) calculated from leaf temperature also increased for the leaves infected by the virus. The event such that CWSI increased by the infection of the virus occurred before visual disease symptom appeared. Our results suggest that the thermal imaging camera would be useful for the development of crop remote sensing technique, which can be applied to a smart farm.
