Abstract: In this paper,Eddy Correlation (EC) method was employed to measure the latent heat and CO2 flux density and to calculate Water Use Efficiency (WUE) of winter wheat community in Yucheng district,Shandong Province in 1997.The results showed that the CO2 flux density had an obvious diurnal change,with a maximum about1.5 mg·s-1·m-2,which appeared at about 9:00~10:00 am in general.The WUE of wheat community presented a fall trend from morning to afternoon,and the CO2 flux density and WUE also had an obvious seasonal change,being lower in the early and late growth stages,and higher in the middle growth stage.The ranges of daily mean CO2 flux density and WUE were 0.2~0.9 mg·s-1·m-2 and 5~20 gCO2·kg-1 H2O,respectively.

Key words: Photosynthesis of crop community, CO2 flux density, Water use efficiency, Winter wheat
