The size of the trunk of a tree increases and decreases with daily transpiration. Changes in the dendrometer readings can be used to determine the Daily Growth (the increase in maximum value from one day to the next) and the maximum daily shrinkage (the difference between the maximum and minimum value for the time period). In irrigation management, it is this second parameter which is the most important, as the maximum daily shrinkage (MDS) will be higher when plants are well irrigated than when they are stressed. The trunk dendrometers have an SDI-12 interface.
