Transboundary Waters and Their Status in Today’s Water-Scarce World

open access: yesSustainability, 2023
Approximately 40% of the world’s population lives in transboundary river and lake basins, accounting for an estimated 60% of global freshwater flow. These shared water resources support the livelihoods of more than 3 billion people. Today, with the decrease in the amount of water in the world, the dispute over transboundary waters has increased.

Water Status of Seeds [PDF]

open access: yesHortScience, 1995
Four topics are presented on the status of water in seeds; 1) methods to express moisture content (MC), 2) methods to determine MC, 3) relationship between relative humidity (RH) and MC, and 4) utility of water activity measurements in seeds. Seed MC is expressed on a fresh-weight basis in commerce and seed technology, while dry weight basis is used in

Spatio-Temporal Variation of Trophic Status and Water Quality with Water Level Fluctuation in a Reservoir

open access: yes, 2023
Water level fluctuation (WLF) is one of the important factors that affect reservoir water quality, habitat, species, and ecosystems. In this study, an independent sample t-test was used to evaluate the trophic status and water quality of the spatial and ...

Effects of environmental factors and management practices on microclimate, winter physiology and frost resistance in trees.

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2015
Freezing events are one of the most important limiting factors determining the ecological distribution and production of tree species. Assessment of frost risk, is therefore, critical for forestry, fruit production and horticulture.

Assessing the relationship between cordon strangulation, dieback, and fungal trunk disease symptom expression in grapevine

open access: yesOENO One, 2023
Grapevine cordons wrapped tightly around the cordon wire during establishment may be susceptible to an early occurrence of decay and dieback symptoms. A loss of productivity is often observed in older permanent cordons that have been constricted in this
