An engineering approach to support user-led innovation in improving the performance of artisanal irrigation pivots in the Algerian Sahara

open access: yesAgricultural Water Management
Large-scale center pivots have been imported into Algeria since the 1980s to promote cereal production in the Sahara, but these pivots did not match either user needs or smallholder farming systems. In response, local artisans designed a smaller, cheaper,

Evaluation of water distribution under pivot irrigation systems using remote sensing imagery in eastern Nile delta

open access: yesEgyptian Journal of Remote Sensing and Space Sciences, 2017
Traditional methods for center pivot evaluation depend on the water depth distribution along the pivot arm. Estimation and mapping the water depth under pivot irrigation systems using remote sensing data is essential for calculating the coefficient of ...

Organizational Sensemaking Theory Perspective of Developing AI‐Driven Strategies for Sustainability Initiatives

open access: yesBusiness Strategy and the Environment, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Although artificial intelligence (AI) is increasingly being touted to assist organizations, AI integration for sustainability efforts has been limited AND sporadic and tends to follow an ad hoc strategy. The existing literature therein focuses on the technological capabilities of AI, overlooking how organizations make sense of and ...
