This paper mainly studied the variation of canopy-air temperature difference and transpiration rate of alfalfa under different water conditions. The results showed that the change law is basically identical of canopy-air temperature difference and transpiration rate in the whole growth period, and there are ‘M’ model in the typical day for the shape of the diurnal variation curve. The canopy-air temperature difference is negative and that diurnal variation curve is basically identical with transpiration rate’s under full irrigation, while the canopy-air temperature difference is positive, the transpiration rate is lower and the variation is smoother with larger deficit. Transpiration rate increases with the increase of canopy-air temperature difference when it is smaller and the transpiration rate decreases when canopy-air temperature difference is greater than 0℃.
