Simulated hail damage and yield reduction in lentil

Canadian Journal of Plant Science, 2011
Bueckert, R. A. 2011. Simulated hail damage and yield reduction in lentil. Can. J. Plant Sci. 91: 117–124. The severity of crop damage by hail is frequently estimated using equations derived from controlled experiments, but this approach has not been extended to the indeterminate pulse crop lentil (Lens culinaris L.).

THE EFFECT OF HAIL DAMAGE ON BARLEY

Canadian Journal of Plant Science, 1979
After a severe hailstorm at Fort Ellis, Montana, an experienced hail insurance adjuster estimated 90–100% damage in replicated yield plots of barley (Hordeum vulgare L.). After harvest, grain yield losses for all 66 entries in the nursery were found to range from 26 to 84%.

Hail Damage to Typical Aircraft Surfaces

Journal of Aircraft, 1972
Severe structural damage can occur when aircraft collide with hailstones. Consequently, methods of predicting hail damage to airplane surfaces are needed by the aircraft designer. This paper describes an analytical method of predicting the dent depth and final deformed shape for simple structural components impacted by hailstones.

Crop Damage: The Hail Size Factor

Journal of Applied Meteorology, 1996
Abstract Between 1986 and 1992 a research project was developed and carried out on hail climatology and the economic repercussions of hail on agriculture in Leon (northwestern Spain). A target area with an extent of 6825 km2 was defined, within which a network of meteorological observers was established at an average density of 1 per 17 km2.

Hail‐damage frequency distributions for Iowa, and a method of evaluating the probability of a specified amount of hail damage

Eos, Transactions American Geophysical Union, 1952
Hail may cause significant amounts of damage to crops in agricultural areas. Using data collected by the State Department of Agriculture in Iowa, a method is described for defining the frequency distribution of hail damage to agricultural crops. These frequency distributions can be used as a means of evaluating the nature of the hail hazard in various ...

An Overview of Crop Hail Damage and Evaluation of Hail Suppression Efficiency in Bulgaria

Journal of Applied Meteorology, 1996
Abstract The space–time distribution of the crop hail loss-to-risk ratio over the whole. Bulgarian territory has been ascertained using the rank approach. The relationships between hailfall characteristics (sizes and kinetic energy) and the percentage of the crop damage for wheat, corn, and vines were obtained using field observations and hailpad data.

Fine-grained multi-factor hail damage modelling

2015 Conference on Technologies and Applications of Artificial Intelligence (TAAI), 2015
A fine-grained multi-factor estimation of crop-hail damage is required to progress from manual inspection of crops post-event to automated assessment and accurate forecasting of the expected impact on agricultural areas. Such automated processes will enable more accurate claims processing, improve customer satisfaction, and reduce insurance losses ...

Hail Damage Impacts on Corn Productivity: A Review

Crop Science, 2019
Hail influence on corn (Zea mays L.) yield depends on defoliation timing and severity. Complete defoliation during early vegetative stages can have minimum yield effects if plants’ growing point is not affected but can generate some delays in the planting to flowering period. Low‐severity defoliations after V10 can reduce yield up to 30%.
