N2 - Water conservation has become crucial as climate change intensifies and agricultural demands strain global water resources. To investigate the relationship between soil humidity and the dynamic behavior of stomata - organelles that facilitate gas exchange, six maize plants simulated a range of soil humidity levels, from extreme drought to water logging. Air and soil humidity sensors, powered by an Arduino, collected data during sunrise, noon, and sunset. A relationship between soil humidity and the rate of water vapor movement was discovered, but no significant difference was noted between the morning and evening trials.
