Estimation of wheat crop evapotranspiration using NDVI vegetation index

, 2016
The evapotranspiration of the wheat crop grown in Tarafeni South Main Canal (TSMC) irrigation command area of West Bengal, India was estimated based on Normalized Difference Vegetation Index (NDVI) from LANDSAT images.

Made in the shade: Leaf responses of native wildflowers to single‐axis photovoltaic solar energy

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
As solar energy expands globally, balancing renewable power generation with biodiversity and ecosystem health has become an urgent challenge. This study investigated how native wildflowers respond at leaf level to the unique microclimates created by rotating solar panels in California's Central Valley.

Quantification of onion (Allium cepa L.) evapotranspiration and crop coefficient via weighable lysimeter under semi-arid climate of Melkasa, Ethiopia

Heliyon
In response to the growing challenge of water scarcity in agriculture, efficient irrigation planning and management have become increasingly essential. A critical component of this is determining the precise water requirements of crops.

Using dendroclimatic analysis of exotic deciduous conifers in an arboretum to document tree growth in response to climate change, Northeast Ohio, USA

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Rising temperatures and wetter conditions in the Midcontinent of North America are influencing climate responses in trees. Dendroclimatological analyses of four exotic deciduous conifer species from Secrest Arboretum, Northeast Ohio help identify past, present and future climate‐tree interactions.

Federated learning based reference evapotranspiration estimation for distributed crop fields

PLOS ONE
Water resource management and sustainable agriculture rely heavily on accurate Reference Evapotranspiration (ETo). Efforts have been made to simplify the (ETo) estimation using machine learning models. The existing approaches are limited to a single specific area. There is a need for ETo estimations of multiple locations with diverse weather conditions.

Forecasting crop evapotranspiration under standard conditions in precision farming

, 2019
A new methodology is suggested for forecasting crop evapotranspiration under standard conditions (also referred to as potential evapotranspiration ETp) by combining VIS-NIR satellite images and numerical weather forecasts. The methodology is proposed for

Solar farms can mitigate negative impacts of whiplash weather on plant communities in a dryland ecosystem

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Utility‐scale solar energy (USSE) development generates novel questions regarding coupling clean energy production with terrestrial ecosystem services (e.g., forage production, pollinator support). We found that a USSE array sited in a fallowed cropland maintained a reseeded native plant community even a decade post‐restoration and that the array ...

Synergy‐based crop suitability assessment for agrivoltaics: An easy‐to‐use traffic‐light framework for temperate climates

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Climate change and the growing demand for renewable energy are putting increasing pressure on land, as food production and solar power generation often compete for the same areas. In this study, we assessed which temperate‐region crops are best suited for agrivoltaics, a technology combining farming and solar electricity production on the same land. We
