  "term": "Stomatal resistance",
  "field": "Meteorology and atmospheric science",
  "definition": "The resistance to the diffusion of water vapor and carbon dioxide through the stomata, which are small pores on the surface of plant leaves. This resistance is a key factor in regulating transpiration and photosynthesis, influencing the exchange of gases between the plant and the atmosphere. It is measured in units of seconds per meter (s/m).",
