Meteorological station records often consist only of precipitation and air temperature data. There is therefore a need for appropriate methods to estimate solar radiation data to enable complete data set creation, by combining observed and estimated data. It is important to know the quality and characteristics of the estimates made in order to understand what impacts the data may have on the us...

In the cold zone of China, winter is and long has a short duration sunshine. Unheated earthen-wall solar greenhouses are used for tomato production in this region. This was an experimental investigation different organic mulching materials (newspaper, bran, grass) on soil temperature, moisture, yield, fruit quality, water use efficiency. Organic variously improved efficiency, which very importa...
