Radiation dimming induced modifications in radiation utilization of wheat (Triticumaestivum) crop
Global dimming has many environmental and climatic implications. India has also experienced a steady and continuous radiation dimming since 1960s due to increasing load of dust and aerosol in the atmosphere.

Efficient sound radiation using a bandgap structure [PDF]
This work reports on the use of bandgaps to increase the efficiency of sound radiation employing defect modes on a phononic crystal (PnC). A PnC consisting of a 2D array of studs on an aluminum plate is considered, and a defect is created by removing four studs.

A Review of Modeled Water Use Efficiency of Highly Productive Perennial Grasses Useful for Bioenergy
Whole plant productivity is obviously the ultimate product of leaf photosynthesis and this has led to numerous efforts to relate the two. However, often with perennial grasses, plant productivity is more sink-limited than source-limited, causing the ...

Sorghum dwarfing genes can affect radiation capture and radiation use efficiency [PDF]
Presence of the dw3 sorghum dwarfing gene had negative effects on grain yield in some genetic backgrounds and environments. In a previous study we showed that this was due to a significant reduction in shoot biomass (mainly via reduced stem mass), which in turn negatively affected grain size. The current study examines whether shoot biomass was reduced

Diurnal and Seasonal Variations of Photosynthetic Energy Conversion Efficiency of Field Grown Wheat
Improving canopy photosynthetic light use efficiency and energy conversion efficiency (εc) is a major option to increase crop yield potential. However, so far, the diurnal and seasonal variations of canopy light use efficiency (LUE) and εc are largely ...
