Abstract:
A model to predict the daily green leaf area index (GLAI) for corn has been developed for Indiana conditions. Using daily maximum and minimum temperatures the GLAI was predicted for the vegetative stage, reproductive and grain filling stage, and the leaf senescing stage of corn. Predictions of GLAI for corn can be made on a daily basis from the day corn is planted until it is harvested for grain. The GLAI model was tested under Virginia conditions using green leaf area measurements collected from corn plants grown on Davidson silty clay loam, Davidson silty clay, and Mayodan sandy loam soils

Abstract:
Commercially available leaf area index (LAI) meters are tools that can be used in making insect management decisions. However, proper technique must be determined for LAI estimation, and accuracy must be validated for the meters. Full-season soybean require LAI values of at least 3.5 to 4.0 by early to mid-reproductive developmental stages to achieve maximum yield potential, but the relationship between double-crop soybean LAI and yield is unknown.

Leaf area index (LAI), defined as the one sided green leaf area per unit ground area, is a key parameter in ecosystem process models. Owing to the large area of the earth's surface that they occupy, savanna ecosystems represent the third largest terrestrial carbon sink. There is considerable uncertainty however, as to the functioning of these ecosystems, particularly as they respond to land cover changes. Consequently, ecosystem process models constitute one of the best methods available for investigating the effect this may have on terrestrial carbon cycling. If these models are to be used ov

Double cropping soybean after small grain harvest does not always allow sufficient canopy growth to maximize photosynthesis and seed yield. This is due to a shorter growing season and moisture deficits common to the Mid-Atlantic USA.

An LAI of 3.5 to 4.0 by flowering is required to maximize yield potential. Soybean LAI will vary within and between fields due to soil differences, cultivar selection, and other cultural practices.

Abstract:
Pour mieux comprendre le fonctionnement des écosystèmes forestiers à échelle fine, les modèles écophysiologiques cherchent à intégrer les flux d’énergie et de matière. Ces échanges dépendent de la distribution de la végétation. Leur modélisation nécessite donc une description de la structure de la végétation en trois dimensions (3D) à un niveau de détail que seule la télédétection peut produire à haut débit. Les LiDAR terrestre (Light Detection And Ranging) possèdent un fort potentiel pour caractériser en 3D la végétation au sein des canopées. De précédents travaux qui relient la densité de po

Abstract:
The majority of small-scale farmers in the Eastern Cape apply inadequate quantities of manure, inorganic (NPK) fertilizer and Gromor as lone fertilizers or tend to mix manure or Gromor with chemical fertilizers for crops, without any scientific basis (Mkile, 2001). Hence this study – aimed at achieving effective and efficient use of chemical fertilizers, manure and Gromor, either as lone fertilizers or mixed with one another, in maize production – was established. A three-year dry land field experiment, arranged in a RCBD with 3 replicates where cattle manure, chemical fertilizer and Gromor we

Resumo: A melancieira é cultivada praticamente em todo o território brasileiro, atingindo produção média anual no período de 1999/2006 de 1826134,5 t em área média anual de 81891,8 ha no mesmo período. A produção e qualidade dos frutos de melancia estão associadas a fatores genéticos, climáticos e fitotécnicos, sendo a nutrição da planta de fundamental importância para conseguir resultados satisfatórios. O nitrogênio e o potássio são os nutrientes extraídos em maior quantidade pela melancia e devem ser aplicados de forma e quantidade adequada e na época correta. Outro fator de grande importânc

Abstract:
Grasslands are one of the most important ecosystems on Earth, covering approximately one-third of the Earth’s surface. Grassland biodiversity is important as many services provided by such ecosystems are crucial for the human economy and well-being. Given the importance of grasslands ecosystems, in recent years research has been carried out on the potential to monitor them with novel remote sensing techniques. Improved detectors technology and novel sensors providing fine-scale hyperspectral imagery have been enabling new methods to monitor plant traits (PTs) and biodiversity. The aims of the

Resumo: Avaliou-se o efeito do IAF residual sob a estrutura do pasto de capim-Tanzânia e o comportamento ingestivo de cabras Boer X Saanen sob lotação intermitente. O experimento foi conduzido no período de fevereiro/2008 a agosto/2008. A área foi subdividida em 18 piquetes de 243 m2 para o estudo de 3 tratamentos dispostos segundo um delineamento em blocos casualizados com 6 repetições para avaliações referentes à gramínea. As avaliações referentes ao comportamento ingestivo das cabras foram realizadas, na mesma área, em 12 piquetes, alocados em blocos casualizados, com 4 repetições. Os trata

In den letzten Jahren wurden relativ komplexe Erosionsmodelle entwickelt, deren Teilprozesse immer mehr auf physikalisch begründeten Ansätzen beruhen. Damit verbunden ist eine höhere Anzahl aktueller Eingangsparameter, deren Bestimmung im Feld arbeits- und kostenaufwendig ist. Zudem werden die Parameter punktuell, also an bestimmten Stellen und nicht flächenhaft wie bei der Fernerkundung, erfasst. <br /> <br /> Im Rahmen dieser Arbeit wird gezeigt, wie Satellitendaten als relativ kostengünstige Ergänzung oder Alternative zur konventionellen Parametererhebung genutzt werden können.

Abstract:
Understanding variations in remote sensing data with illumination and sensor angle changes is important in agricultural crop monitoring. This research investigated field bidirectional reflectance factor (BRF) in crop differentiation and PROSAIL leaf area index (LAI) estimation. BRF and LAI data were collected for planophile and erectophile crops at three growth stages. In the solar principal plane, BRF differed optimally at 860 nm 60 days after planting (DAP) for canola and pea, at 860 nm 45 and 60 DAP for wheat and barley, and at 860 nm and 670 nm 45 and 60 DAP for planophiles versus erectoph
