## Abstract The spatial and temporal impacts of climate change on paddy irrigation water demands in South Korea have been modelled and mapped. The outputs from a general circulation model (HadCM3) for two selected scenarios (A2, B2) of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change Special Report on
Transpiration from a paddy rice canopy was estimated by combining measurements of leaf and panicle conductances with meteorological data in the Penman--Monteith equation. There was good agreement between the total seasonal water use calculated by this method, and that calculated using the Penman equ
A formula for the ratio of the latent heat of bound water to that of free water of Australian paddy rice is derived from a published isotherm equation. The result is compared with an empirical fit based on the same isotherm. The accuracy of the empirical fit diminishes below 11% moisture content (we
