Regional evapotranspiration estimates using the relative soil moisture ratio derived from SMAP products

Agricultural Water Management, 2019
Evapotranspiration (ET) is the main water loss in water balance, particularly in arid and semiarid regions. In the last decades, remote sensing technology has been providing valuable information to monitor ET at large scale. In this study, a modification

Relationship between Modal/Cotton Blending Ratio and Heat-Moisture Performance

Applied Mechanics and Materials, 2011
7 sorts of modal/cotton blended yarns were prepared with different blending ratio. This article studies the relationship between the wear comfort performance and blending ratio. By the analysis of the moisture adsorption, moisture-air permeability properties, the optimum blended ratio of the modal/cotton blended fabric is determined.

Moisture sensor based on standing wave ratio for agriculture industry

2016 7th International Conference of Information and Communication Technology for Embedded Systems (IC-ICTES), 2016
In this paper, we have developed a prototype of moisture sensor based on a measurement of standing wave ratio (SWR) in the transmission line with four types of probes: 4-rod, 3-rod, cylindrical, and embedded-coplanar-strip probes. The sensors can measure moisture in agricultural products whose conductance is unstable by applying SWR technique using ...

Effects of moisture and carbon/nitrogen ratio on gaseous emissions and maturity during direct composting of cornstalks used for filtration of anaerobically digested manure centrate.

Bioresource Technology, 2019
This study investigated the maturity and gaseous emission during direct composting of cornstalks used as organic media for filtration of anaerobically digested manure centrate. Effects of moisture and carbon/nitrogen (C/N) ratio on composting performance

Collapse and Swell of Lime Stabilized Expansive Clays in Void Ratio–Moisture Ratio–Net Stress Space

International Journal of Geomechanics, 2019
The swell-collapse mechanism of residual basaltic clay in both untreated and stabilized with lime conditions was investigated. For treated specimens, the optimum lime content (OLC) was found based on swell potential reduction. Swelling and collapse potential were investigated using the virgin compaction surface, which is the backbone of the Monash ...

The impact of sand moisture on the temperature-sex ratio responses of developing loggerhead (Caretta caretta) sea turtles.

Zoology, 2019
All species of sea turtles exhibit a cooler male/warmer female temperature-sex ratio response. Field and experimental studies on loggerhead sea turtle sex ratios suggest that increased sand moisture impacts sea turtle sex ratios with, and perhaps beyond,

Shoot Root Ratio and Moisture Relations

Transactions of the Kansas Academy of Science (1903-), 1945
Many shoot-root ratio studies have been made by various plant physiologists and ecologists. The data and conclusions of these workers do not always agree. Some of the workers (2) believe the ratio to be an hereditory factor while others (1i, ) believe it may be modified materially by environmental factors.

Measurement of Moisture Content of Coal Based on Standing-wave Ratio

2010 International Conference on Measuring Technology and Mechatronics Automation, 2010
A method of measuring moisture content of coal based on standing-wave ratio was put forward. Because the permittivity of coal was also influenced by the temperature and degree of compaction of coal, and there was a complicated nonlinear relationship among the moisture content of coal, permittivity, temperature and degree of compaction, the least ...

A parameterization of Bowen ratio with respect to soil moisture availability

Advances in Atmospheric Sciences, 1995
The Bowen ratio (B) is impacted by 5 environmental elements: soil moisture availabillity,m, the ratio of resistances between atmosphere and soil pores,r a/rD, atmospheric relative humidity,h, atmospheric stability, δT, and environment temperature.

NISAR Soil Moisture retrievals using the Time-Series Ratio Algorithm

2023
The NISAR mission will provide global data sets of Earth land surface dynamics that are critical to multiple Earth Science disciplines including observations of ecosystem carbon and water cycles. Soil moisture is a surface hydrosphere state variable and plays a key role in global terrestrial hydrology.  It controls the partitioning of water ...
