A comparison of three canopy interception models for a leafless mixed deciduous forest stand in the eastern United States [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
Canopy interception of incident precipitation is a critical component of the forest water balance during each of the four seasons. Models have been developed to predict precipitation interception from standard meteorological variables because of ...

Predicting Water Cycle Characteristics from Percolation Theory and Observational Data. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
The fate of water and water-soluble toxic wastes in the subsurface is of high importance for many scientific and practical applications. Although solute transport is proportional to water flow rates, theoretical and experimental studies show that heavy ...

The Perception of Deceptive Information Can Be Enhanced by Training That Removes Superficial Visual Information

open access: yesFrontiers in Psychology, 2018
The ability to detect deceptive intent within actions is a crucial element of skill across many tasks. Evidence suggests that deceptive actions may rely on the use of superficial visual information to hide the basic kinematic information which specifies ...

A Prototype Sensor for Estimating Light Interception by Plants in a Greenhouse [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
Light interception is one of the most important factors for plant growth. The intercepted amount depends on the incoming radiation in the greenhouse and the percentage of interception by the crop and is directly related to the leaf area.

Monitoring Tree Sway as an Indicator of Interception Dynamics Before, During, and Following a Storm

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, 2021
Understanding the role of trees in attenuating the timing and magnitude of effective precipitation reaching the land surface requires improved monitoring of interception dynamics.

The Digital Way to Intercept Psoriatic Arthritis

open access: yesFrontiers in Medicine, 2021
Psoriasis (PsO) and Psoriatic Arthritis (PsA) are chronic, immune-mediated diseases that share common etiopathogenetic pathways. Up to 30% of PsO patient may later develop PsA.

Phytosanitary risk associated with illegal importation of pest-infested commodities to the South African agricultural sector

open access: yesSouth African Journal of Science, 2021
We evaluated the phytosanitary risk associated with illegal importation of pest-infested plant commodities into South Africa. Samples were collected from different South African ports of entry over 8 years (2011 to 2019) and data were analysed ...
