Cover Story: The low desert of California is the major date production area within the United States. This study aims to acquire crop water use and crop coefficient information for California date palms. The novelty of the effort is using the residual of energy balance method with a combination of surface renewal and eddy covariance techniques. The study develops a data set and relationships that could serve as a reference for further studies and applications to date production in arid and semi-arid regions. The findings may assist farmers in employing adaptive tools to utilize water more efficiently and achieve full economic gains in a sustainable manner, especially as water resources become less available or more expensive.
