flag Researchers at UC San Diego identify two mechanisms in plants that aid temperature regulation and could inform irrigation strategies in response to climate change.

flag Researchers at UC San Diego have discovered two mechanisms that help plants cope with rising temperatures, published in *New Phytologist*. flag Plants enhance stomatal openings to transpire and cool themselves, crucial for minimizing heat damage. flag A carbon dioxide sensor regulates this response, while a second mechanism activates under extreme heat, increasing water use. flag These findings could influence irrigation strategies and improve agricultural resilience amid climate change.
