- Wind affects transpiration by removing a thin moist layer of air, called boundary layer,

which lies next to the surface of a leaf. Wind replaces this boundary layer with drier air,
increasing water potential gradient from the leaves to the atmosphere and enhancing
transpiration.
- Light has a controlling effect on the opening of the stoma through which water primarily
escapes in gaseous state. In general, the higher the light is, the higher the transpiration
rate is.
- High moisture influences transpiration by regulating stomatal movement and atmospheric
demand. At high moisture, the stoma tends to close and thus limit the exit of water vapor
from the plant. Further, high moisture means that the water-potential gradient from plant
to the atmosphere will be minimal compared to when the humidity is low.
