Realistic modeling of infiltration, runoff and erosion processes from watersheds requires estimation of the effective hydraulic conductivity (Km) of the hillslope soils and how it varies with soil tilth, depth and cover conditions.

Modification of polymer backbone via halogenation and comonomer selection leads to conjugated backbones of different stereoelectronic properties, thin film morphologies, and electrical characteristics. The interplay of conformational isomerism, coplanarity, backbone curvature, backbone orientation, and ordering in thin films, electrical conductivity ...

A PRELIMINARY STUDY OF EFFECTIVE RAINFALL
Abstract SYNOPSIS Since the water content of the soil does not change appreciably from year to year, each year's rainfall must escape in some manner. In winter it escapes by evaporation and run-off in streams. In summer it escapes by evaporation, by run-off, and by transpiration.

While perovskite solar cells have been widely studied, including their stability, perovskite indoor photovoltaics (IPVs) have only recently emerged. Nevertheless, more studies are appearing in the literature. The systematic stability study of IPVs is crucial, particularly given the inconsistencies in reported methodologies and results, which call for ...

Did the Indian Green Revolution Change the Farm Size–Productivity Relationship?
ABSTRACT We examine the relationship between farm size and productivity during India's Green Revolution, a period of rapid technological transformation. Using a unique panel of over 5000 Indian farm households that spans the Green Revolution (1971–1999), we show that the classic (linear) inverse farm size–productivity relationship gradually evolved ...

Effect of rainfall on tree stability [PDF]
Trees are “living structures”. They all possess an above ground superstructure as well as a below ground anchoring structure. The objective of this research was to study the loads applied to the trees, and the structural and geotechnical mechanisms that can lead to uprooting of trees in Singapore.

Temperature and Farm Labor in Nigeria
ABSTRACT We estimate the impact of temperature shocks on the composition of farm labor in rural Nigeria using a nationally representative household panel survey. Leveraging plausibly exogenous year‐to‐year variation in growing season temperatures, we find that warmer temperatures significantly alter farm labor composition, prompting a substantial shift
