Remote Sensing for Irrigation Water Management—The State of the Art and Prospects for Near‐Future Operations

open access: yesIrrigation and Drainage, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT A recent UN report describes many regions as facing ‘water bankruptcy,’ a condition in which available water resources can no longer meet existing demands. In practice, this means irrigation will likely bear the greatest burden of future water‐use reductions, a complicated and fraught decision to make given its critical role in food security ...

Fitting the revised Gash analytical model of rainfall interception to Mongolian Scots pines in Mu Us Sandy Land, China

open access: yesTrees, Forests and People, 2020
A rainfall interception experiment was completed for Pinus sylvestris var. mongolica plots with stand densities ranging from 925 to 2700 plants ha−1 in Mu Us Sandy Land, China from June to September 2013.

Simplified Interception/Evaporation Model

open access: yesHydrology, 2021
It is known that at the event scale, evaporation losses of rainfall intercepted by canopy are a few millimeters, which is often not much in comparison to other stocks in the water balance.

Intercomparison of a Regional Climate Model Ensemble for Selected European Catchments

open access: yesInternational Journal of Climatology, EarlyView.
This study analyzes a regional climate model ensemble for water cycle and water resource research with two models. Results show that ICON generally outperforms TSMP1 simulations, mainly with 2‐m temperature and precipitation. These findings serve as a baseline evaluation that shows how key structural differences influence the model skill.

Characteristics and simulation of snow interception by the canopy of primary spruce‐fir Korean pine forests in the Xiaoxing'an Mountains of China

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, 2019
Snow interception by the forest canopy is an important control on the forest hydrological cycle in the Xiaoxing'an Mountains within the northern temperate region of China. In this study, the effects of snowfall characteristics and stand structures on the

Degradation kinetics of postharvest quality attributes of rocket leaves grown under different nitrogen rates

open access: yesJournal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, EarlyView.
Abstract BACKGROUND Diplotaxis tenuifolia L. cv Dallas (rocket leaves) is one of the most widely consumed fresh‐cut salad vegetables in Europe, especially in southern Italy, being appreciated for its pungent taste and health promoting phytochemicals. However, its short postharvest shelf‐life is still a major drawback.

Sweet Pepper (Capsicum annuum L.) Canopy Photosynthesis Modeling using 3D Plant Architecture and Light Ray-tracing

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2016
Canopy photosynthesis has typically been estimated using mathematical models that have the following assumptions: the light interception inside the canopy exponentially declines with the canopy depth, and the photosynthetic capacity is affected by light ...

Ringtail (Bassariscus astutus) survival in southwestern Oregon

open access: yesThe Journal of Wildlife Management, EarlyView.
We captured and monitored radio‐collared ringtails over 2 years to estimate monthly and annual survival rates. We found that annual survival rates were much higher within forested landscapes in Oregon than for populations in the southwestern United States.

Effects of canopy characteristics and rainfall intensity on canopy water storage: A simulated rainfall study on the broadleaf and needleleaf species in subtropical China

open access: yesJournal of Hydrology: Regional Studies
Study region: Jiangxi Province, China Study focus: Canopy interception is influenced by both structural and rainfall characteristics. yet, the relative contributions remain unclear due to their complex interactions. A process-based experimental study was
