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 ...

Radiation interception and radiation use efficiency in mixtures of winter cover crops
Abstract Context Cover crops are sown in autumn after harvest of a main crop to capture residual nitrogen and to build biomass that will contribute to soil organic matter after being ploughed under. Mixtures are purportedly more productive than pure stands of single species.

Radiation use efficiency increases when the diffuse component of incident radiation is enhanced under shade [PDF]
Theoretical analyses have shown the radiation use efficiency of maize, soybean, and peanut to increase with a decrease in the level of incident radiation and an increase in the proportion of diffuse radiation. This study compared the growth and radiation

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.
