Water potential is a measure of the potential energy of water in a particular environment, compared to pure water. It is a measure of the likelihood of water moving from one area to another, with water moving from areas of high potential to areas of low potential. Water potential is influenced by factors such as pressure, solute concentration, and temperature. It is important in understanding how water moves in plants, soils, and other biological systems.
