Giant reed (Arundo donax L.), a woody grass native to the Mediterranean, has become cause of concern for national water security in its invaded range arid southwestern United States, Australia, New Zealand, and South Africa. The main objective this study was provide first, landscape-level estimates use by giant reed. utilized eddy covariance method quantify evapotranspiration (ET) throughout 20...

In order to further the development of plant-based remediation of sites contaminated by carbo-chemical and petro-chemical industries, the penetration of the roots of Phragmites australis in contaminated soil substrate was studied in model trials. The series of experiments contained model substrate with firm bitumen and tar. In terms of the level of root penetration, the roots and rhizomes penet...

Machine learning is frequently combined with imagery acquired from uncrewed aircraft systems (UASs) to detect invasive plants. Having prior knowledge of which machine algorithm will produce the most accurate results difficult. This study examines efficacy a voting-based ensemble classifier identify Phragmites australis three-band (red, green, blue; RGB) and five-band blue, red edge, near-infrar...

Higher spatial and temporal resolutions of remote sensing data are likely to be useful for ecological monitoring efforts. There many different treatment approaches the introduced European genotype Phragmites australis, adaptive management principles being integrated in at least some long-term In this paper, we investigated how natural color a smaller set near-infrared (NIR) images collected wit...

This study aimed to investigate the performance of French Type Constructed Wetlands (FTCW) at a pilot scale level in real field conditions for sewage treatment India. The plant consisted hybrid wetlands two stages, vertical and horizontal sub-surface flow types. first stage comprised three compartments, vegetated with different native plants (phragmites australis, canna indica, sagittaria), ope...
