Abstract:
Abstract A new relationship between the surface distribution of equivalent potential temperature and the potential temperature at the tropopause is proposed. Using a Gaussian approximation for the distribution of equivalent potential temperature, the authors argue that the tropopause potential temperature is approximately given by the mean equivalent potential temperature at the surface plus twice its standard derivation. This relationship is motivated by the comparison of the meridional circulation on dry and moist isentropes. It is further tested using four reanalysis datasets: the Interim E

Leaf, stem, plant, root fresh weight and leaf area (LFW, SFW, PFW, RFW, and LA, respectively)—were recorded 48 days after planting. For each of the vegetative components the only significant difference (P ≤ 0.05) occurred between 3% versus 6-18% soil moistures, with moisture level of 6-18% showing no significant variation among themse

Acetylation is one of the most common types of wood modification and is commercially available throughout the world. Many studies have shown that acetylated wood is decay resistant at high levels of acetylation.

It is well known that at a given water activity, acetylation reduces the equilibrium moisture content of the wood cell wall. Furthermore, linear relationships have been found between the acetylation weight percent gain (WPG), wood moisture content, and the amount of mass loss in

This study focuses on Shihezi City in Xinjiang, China. We propose a novel method for soil moisture retrieval by integrating Sentinel-1 and Sentinel-2 remote sensing data. Dual-polarization parameters (VV + VH and VV × VH) were constructed and tested. Pearson correlation analysis showed that these polarization combinations carried the most useful information for soil moisture estimation. We then applied Shapley Additive exPlanations (SHAP)

The former system comprising of near infrared (NIR) emitters of wavelengths 1200 nm and 1450 nm, and a photodetector for near real time soil moisture measurement in loams and peats holding different amount of water. There were 63 and 90 sets of data from loams and peats, respectively, used in the development of the dual stage-multiclass ANN model, wherein measurement of light attenuation (from nondestructive system) was correlated

The importance of the study is related to the need to study precipitation trends in certain regions. Based on the analysis of the long-term dynamics of annual precipitation values, relative humidity, and the number of days with precipitation, trends in the degree of moisture in the east of the island was established.

Water is one of the limiting factors in the growth of coffee plants. If plants experience a lack of water, it can inhibit plant growth and, at a critical level, can lead to drought stress and plant damages. The available soil water to plants can be estimated from the level of soil moisture index. The monitoring of soil moisture status can be used in improving the management of coffee plantations. Soil Moisture Index (SMI) is a method that can be used to estimate the level of soil moisture using remote sensing technology using NDVI and LST values.

Abstract Fermentation is critical in cacao processing which breakdowns sugar compounds in the pulp into organic acids. The produced organic acids stimulate enzymatic reactions in the beans which affect the flavor, taste, and color of the cacao beans. Acidity (pH) and moisture content of cacao beans influence the quality of cacao during fermentation. Those parameters are commonly measured using pH meter and gravimetric methods which are time-consuming and destructive.Therefore, the objective of this study was to develop non-destructive calibration models to predict the pH and moisture content o

This study evaluates the effect of initial moisture contents (11.74–29.84%) on physicochemical changes, in vitro and in vivo digestibilities of potato starch irradiated with electron beam (EB). After a constant dose of EB irradiation, intrinsic viscosity and average molecular weight of potato starch decreased for all investigated moisture contents. When the moisture of starch was lower than 18%, the depolymerization predominated, hence increasing the amylose content. At higher moisture, water can strongly absorb EB and produce highly active species that induced the crosslinking of amylose mole
