Abstract
The calculation of a thermal based Crop Water Stress Index (CWSI) requires an estimate of canopy temperature under non-water stressed conditions. The objective of this study was to assess the influence of different wine grape cultivars on the performance of models that predict canopy temperature non-water stressed wine vines. The canopy temperature of the wine grape cultivars Malbec, Syrah, Chardonnay and Cabernet franc were measured under well-watered conditions over multiple years and modeled as a function of climatic parameters solar radiation, air temperature, relative humidity and wind speed using multiple linear regression and neural network modeling. Despite differences among cultivars in non-water stressed canopy temperature, both models provided good prediction results when all cultivars were collectively modeled. All predictive models had an uncertainty of plus or minus 0.1 in calculation of the CWSI despite significantly different prediction error variance between models.
