Rainfall temporal variability and drought analysis by means of the Standardized Precipitation Index in Ganganagar District, Rajasthan, India

Frontiers in Climate
Drought, a prolonged period of precipitation deficit, is one of the most significant hydro-meteorological hazards affecting agriculture, water resources, ecosystems, and socio-economic systems, and its impacts are becoming more pronounced under ...

Effect of Vapor Pressure Deficit on Nutrient Uptake and Growth of Four Tomato Varieties Grown Hydroponically at Low Nutrient Concentrations

Journal of Plant Nutrition and Soil Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Marginal water sources, such as wastewater, have been proposed as the basis for hydroponic nutrient solutions to improve the resource efficiency of greenhouse‐based tomato production. Such water sources are often low in plant‐available nutrient concentrations, and uptake and use efficiency of these nutrients may vary widely among ...

Salt‐induced nutritional and metabolic shifts in halophytes: implications for food security

Journal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, EarlyView.
Abstract Plant species vary in their response to salinity: some crops show a degree of salt tolerance, while halophytes – whether wild or cultivated – are characterized by a high capacity to thrive under saline conditions. Halophytes are considered a source of valuable secondary metabolites with potential economic value, yet they might also produce ...

Effect of saline irrigation on Tetragonia tetragonioides (Pall.) Kuntze grown on different soil types under greenhouse conditions

Journal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, EarlyView.
Abstract BACKGROUND Climate change and population growth are major challenges for sustainable food production, particularly in regions affected by water scarcity and soil salinization. In this context, halophytes represent promising candidates as alternative and sustainable food crops for salt‐affected areas.

Detecting drought-prone regions through drought indices

Journal of Water and Climate Change
Climate change has led to heightened variability in global rainfall patterns, resulting in greater unpredictability and inconsistency, and it has led to the origin of meteorological drought situation.

Predicting long‐term population viability for an imperiled salamander under future climate changes

The Journal of Wildlife Management, EarlyView.
We evaluated the long‐term viability of 2 reticulated flatwoods salamander (Ambystoma bishopi) populations in response to multiple future climate change scenarios. We found that there is a high probability of extinction by 2100 under some scenarios, mostly driven by severe droughts and repeated reproductive failure. Conservation actions should focus on
