Storage water use is an indirect consequence of the interplay between different meteorological drivers through their effect on water flow and water potential in trees. We studied these microclimatic drivers of storage water use in Scots pine (Pinus sylvestris L.) growing in a temperate climate. The storage water use was modeled using the ANAFORE model, integrating a dynamic water flow and – sto...

abstract: water quality of dam storage is highly affected by upstream environment and basin. regarding other conducted studies, there exist various reasons such as some studies and general monitoring of dams which cause some main problems including salinity, chemical and microbial pollution eutrophication, and sedimentation. chame-gardalan storage dam in ilam province is one of the storages whi...

decline in postharvest losses of kiwifruit depended to maintain of quality characteristics during storage and transportation. storage losses caused serious economic losses in kiwifruit. this study was conducted to inhibition of pathogen infection and increasing fruit quality of kiwifruit. hayward kiwifruits inoculated by b.cinerea conidia through pore wounds which formed by removal of the pedic...

the effects of different stages of maturity (mature green, until 20 to 40% of change in color), two treatments of cool water (5 ?c for 5' and 10 ?c for 15min.), two treatments of hot water (50 ?c for 15 min. and 55 ?c for 5 min.) ), two temperatures (10 and 14 °c) of storage vs. six time periods (0, 5, 10, 15, 20 and 25 days) on shelf life and storage time of ‘langra’ mango fruit were stud...

This paper presents sizing, energy management strategy, and cost analysis for a configuration consisting of solar photovoltaic (PV) panels, fuel cell (FC) storage system, and reverse osmosis (RO) desalination technology for combined power and fresh water production. In this system, PV is the main power supply source; fuel cell is a storage system accompanied by Hydrogen production and storage d...

The effect of storage time on some properties of groundnut shell briquette with 5, 10, 15 and 20% binder (cassava gel) was studied. The briquettes were prepared using a motorized briquetting machine. The moisture content, durability rating, water penetration, calorific value and the ash content were determined after every 30 days for 6 months. The results reveals that the moisture content of br...
