Effect of light
In bright light , transpiration increases, the stomata open wider to allow more carbon dioxide into leaf for photosynthesis
Effect of temperature
Transpiration is faster in higher temps
Evaporation and diffusion are faster at higher temps, warms air so lowers the water potential of the air, so water potential gradient is steeper
Effect of wind
Transpiration is faster in windy conditions
Water vapour is removed quickly by air movement, speeding up diffusion of more water vapour of of the leaf. Lowers the water potential of the air, so water potential gradient is steeper
Effect of humidity
Transpiration is slower in humid conditions
The diffusion of water vapour out of the leaf slows down if the leaf is already surrounded by moist air.
