Embedded physical constraints in machine learning to enhance vegetation phenology prediction

GIScience & Remote Sensing
Vegetation phenology plays a pivotal role in ecological processes on terrestrial surfaces and the interactions between the biosphere and atmospheric feedback. Current attempts to retrieve vegetation phenology have primarily depended on vegetation indices

Mulching Increases Water Use Efficiency, Production and Profitability in Forage Cactus–Maize Intercropping Systems

Irrigation and Drainage, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This study evaluated the growth, forage production, soil water balance, water indices, biological efficiency and competitive capacity of forage cactus and maize in monoculture and intercropping, with or without mulch. The experiment was conducted in Serra Talhada, Pernambuco, Brazil, using the cactus clone ‘Orelha de Elefante Mexicana’ (OEM ...

Seasonal Predictions and Their Applications in the Mediterranean Region: Part I—Sources of Predictability and Prediction Skill

International Journal of Climatology, EarlyView.
The ability to predict climate fluctuations at seasonal timescales offers significant socio‐economic benefits. However, limited understanding of predictability mechanisms and model errors hinders forecast quality. Recent research has improved forecasting systems and data quality.

Sea-land climate gradient: a factor influencing vegetation phenology patterns in Yellow River Delta region

Environmental Research Communications
Estuarine coastal wetland are vulnerable zones of the Earth’s ecosphere, and hygrophilous vegetation responds sensitively to climate change. Vegetation phenology is a key component of global climate change research.

Compound Hot‐Dry Days (CHDDs) and Their Implications on Maize Yields in the Free State Province, South Africa

International Journal of Climatology, EarlyView.
Compound hot‐dry events occurring during the maize growing period are increasing significantly (p < 0.05) with time, with the median values ranging from 93 to 120 days. El Niño Southern Oscillation (ENSO) influences the variability of compound hot‐dry events with high significance (p < 0.05) positive Pearson correlation.

Remotely sensed phenology reveals environmental and management controls on coastal wetland plant communities

Ecological Informatics
Plant phenology is often used as an indicator of ecological processes and responses to changing environmental conditions. Remote sensing enables phenological monitoring across space and time, yet separating vegetation composition or environmental drivers

Combined effects of prohexadione‐calcium and growing environment on sweet cherry fruit quality and postharvest performance

Journal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, EarlyView.
Abstract BACKGROUND Sweet cherry (Prunus avium L.) is a high‐value fruit crop, but its commercial success is often limited by poor pigmentation, reduced firmness, and short shelf life. This study evaluated the effects of preharvest applications of prohexadione‐calcium (1.5 L ha−1) on fruit quality and storage performance in lowland and hilly orchards ...
