Abstract Background Sheep wool may reduce drought stress in grasslands when used as a soil amendment. Two experiments were conducted to explore if: (i) water absorbed by wool would be biologically ‘active’ and therefore available to plants, using a novel method of measuring water activity (a w); and, (ii) adding wool to compost would delay water stress

Riverine Flood Forecasting Using Advanced Deep Learning Approaches
ABSTRACT Accurate riverine flood forecasting is crucial for effective river management. This paper utilized the Time‐Series Dense Encoder (TiDE), Neural Hierarchical Interpolation for Time Series Forecasting (N‐HiTS), and Patch Time Series Transformer (PatchTST) to forecast riverine flood and benchmarked their results against Long Short‐Term Memory ...
