1. Estimating Crop Leaf Area Index from Remotely Sensed Data: Scale Effects and Scaling MethodsLeaf area index (LAI) of crop canopies is significant for growth condition monitoring and crop yield estimation, and estimating LAI based on remote sensing observations is the normal way to assess regional crop growth. However, the scale effects of LAI make multi-scale observations harder to be fully and effectively utilized for LAI estimation. A systematical statistical strategy... Y. Dong , J. Wang , C. Li , G.

2. Impact of Variable Rate Fertilization on Nutrients Losses in Surface Runoff for Wild Blueberry FieldsWild blueberry producers apply agrochemicals uniformly without considering substantial variation in soil properties, topographic features that may affect fruit yield within field. A wild blueberry field was selected to evaluate the impact of variable rate (VR) fertilization on nutrient losses in surface runoff from steep slope to low lying areas to improve crop... S.

3. A Comprehensive Stress Index for Evaluating Plant Water Status in Almond TreesThis study evaluated a comprehensive plant water stress index that integrates the canopy temperature and the environmental conditions that can assist in irrigation management. This index—Comprehensive Stress Index (CSI)—is based on the reformulation of the leaf energy balance equation. Specifically, CSI is the ratio of the temperature difference between a dry leaf (i.e. a leaf with a broken stem) and a live leaf (on the same tree) [i.e. Tdry-Tleaf] and the difference between the vapor...
