Adding Far-Red to Red-Blue Light-Emitting Diode Light Promotes Yield of Lettuce at Different Planting Densities

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2021
The economic viability and energy use of vertical farms strongly depend on the efficiency of the use of light. Increasing far-red radiation (FR, 700–800 nm) relative to photosynthetically active radiation (PAR, 400–700 nm) may induce shade avoidance ...

Simulated wind farm wake sensitivity to configuration choices in the Weather Research and Forecasting model version 3.8.1 [PDF]

open access: yesGeoscientific Model Development, 2020
Wakes from wind farms can extend over 50 km downwind in stably stratified conditions. These wakes can undermine power production at downwind turbines, adversely impacting revenue. As such, wind farm wake impacts must be considered in wind resource
