agricultural systems, assessing leaf temperature as a proxy for water stress began in the 1960s ( Maes and Steppe, 2012 ) and has recently been popularized because of a proliferation of thermal cameras, infrared thermometers [IRTs ( Fig. 2C )], and remote
( Vaccinium macrocarpon Ait.). An experiment was set on five commercial cranberry beds to measure plant canopy temperature using infrared thermometers, air temperature, relative humidity and other weather related measurements, soil moisture content, soil
