Assimilation of SAR and optical data into an agro-meteorological model for monitoring yield of corn [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
This study aims to assess the contribution of SAR and optical satellite images to estimate corn biophysical parameters and crop yield at field scale. Satellite data are assimilated into a simple agro-meteorological model named SAFY-WB (Simple Algorithm ...

Comparative analysis of changes in leaf area index in different wheat genotypes exposed to high temperature stress by late sown condition [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
High temperature stress during grain-filling period is one of the major environmental constraints limiting the grain yield of wheat in India. Crop growth response and relative performance of yield components of 12 wheat (Triticum aestivum) genotypes were

A Case‐Based Reasoning Approach to Model Manufacturing Constraints for Impact Extrusion

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
A hybrid modeling approach is presented that combines constraint‐based process modeling and case‐based reasoning. The model formalizes manufacturing constraints and integrates simulation data to model complex manufacturing processes. The approach supports manufacturability analysis during product design through an adaptive modeling environment.

Does initial spacing influence crown and hydraulic architecture of Eucalyptus marginata? [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
Long-term declines in rainfall in south-western Australia have resulted in increased interest in the hydraulic characteristics of jarrah (Eucalyptus marginata Donn ex Smith) forest established in the region's drinking water catchments on rehabilitated ...

Ultra‐Shallow Flat Heat Waves on Low Thermal Conductivity Flexible Polyimide Substrate for Millisecond Thermal Analysis of Materials and Bioelectronic Applications

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
An electronic system is presented consisting of a silver thin‐film electrode on a polyimide substrate working both as a heating element and a resistive temperature sensor, generating millisecond heat pulses with very fast heating and cooling rates and a flat peak temperature with a tunable duration.

Costs of Measuring Leaf Area Index of Corn1

open access: yesAgronomy Journal, 1984
AbstractLeaf area index (LAI) is an important biophysical descriptor of crop canopies. Accurate measurements of W are laborious and time‐consuming. Many methods of measuring LAI of corn (Zea maysL.) have been reported and vary greatly in their accuracy, precision, bias, and ease of measurement. We examined the magnitude of plant‐to‐plant variability of

Assessing soybean leaf area and leaf biomass by spectral measurements [PDF]

open access: yes
Red and photographic infrared spectral radiances were correlated with soybean total leaf area index, green leaf area index, chlorotic leaf area index, green leaf biomass, chlorotic leaf biomass, and total biomass.

Development of forest structure and leaf area in secondary forests regenerating on abandoned pastures in Central Amazonia [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
The area of secondary forest (SF) regenerating from pastures is increasing in the Amazon basin; however, the return of forest and canopy structure following abandonment is not well understood. This study examined the development of leaf area index (LAI),

Material Challenges and Alloy Selection for Particle/s‐CO2 Heat Exchangers in Concentrated Solar Power Systems

open access: yesAdvanced Engineering Materials, EarlyView.
Combining supercritical CO2 (s‐CO2) cycles with particle‐based heat transfer media holds great potential in concentrated solar power plants but poses enormous material challenges. The particle/s‐CO2 heat exchanger must withstand extreme conditions, including high temperatures, pressures, CO2 corrosion, and erosion.
