Spatial variation of grassland canopy affects soil wetting patterns and preferential flow
Spatially heterogeneous canopy and pre‐event soil moisture conditions changed soil‐wetting patterns. Taller grass, together with drier soil, weakens soil moisture response, probably because of uneven water input and dryness induced preferential flow. Abstract Canopies shape net precipitation patterns, which are spatially heterogeneous and control soil ...

LPG Burners for Weed Control [PDF]
Abstract. This article reports on the results of a study carried out on three prototypes of open flame burners for thermal weed control. Their performance is reported in terms of flame temperature and length, in order to ascertain the best ratio between primary and secondary air, and liquefied petroleum gas (LPG) consumption.
