How competitive is drought deciduousness in tropical forests? A combined eco-hydrological and eco-evolutionary approach

open access: yesEnvironmental Research Letters, 2017
Drought-deciduous and evergreen species are both common in tropical forests, where there is the need to cope with water shortages during periodic dry spells and over the course of the dry season. Which phenological strategy is favored depends on the long-

Can Solar‐Powered Irrigation Systems Naturally Meet Crop Water Requirements? Proof of Concept From a Case Study in Sub‐Saharan Africa

open access: yesIrrigation and Drainage, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Irrigation scheduling is crucial for ensuring precise water delivery to crops. However, in many sub‐Saharan African irrigation schemes, water is applied without considering crop water needs, resulting in low crop water productivity and low yields. Solar‐powered irrigation systems can automatically meet these needs by utilizing solar radiation,

Expansion of deciduous tall shrubs but not evergreen dwarf shrubs inhibited by reindeer in Scandes mountain range

open access: yesJournal of Ecology, 2017
One of the most palpable effects of warming in Arctic ecosystems is shrub expansion above the tree line. However, previous studies have found that reindeer can influence plant community responses to warming and inhibit shrubification of the tundra.

Deficit Irrigation and Soil Amendment as Drought Adaptation Strategies: Water Use Efficiency in Pot Experiments With Wheat

open access: yesIrrigation and Drainage, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Amidst climate change and recurring droughts, increasing irrigation water amount and frequency alone is not a definitive solution to address water scarcity in agricultural crop production, particularly in soils with poor water retention capacity. This study evaluated the effects of two drought adaptation strategies (deficit irrigation and soil

Utility of near‐surface phenology in estimating productivity and evapotranspiration across diverse ecosystems

open access: yesJournal of Environmental Quality, EarlyView.
Abstract Agroecosystems, which include row crops, pasture, and grass and shrub grazing lands, are sensitive to changes in management, weather, and genetics. To better understand how these systems are responding to changes, we need to improve monitoring and modeling carbon and water dynamics.

Failure Modes in Servitization: A Process Theory

open access: yesJournal of Operations Management, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The implementation of servitization as a business strategy remains a significant challenge for firms seeking to offer integrated product‐service bundles. Despite the growing body of research in the servitization literature, an integrative framework for explaining the recurring failures in servitization efforts has yet to emerge.
