abstract in order to evaluate crop water stress index (cwsi) and canopy temperature of wheat cultivars under terminal drought stress, a field experiment was conducted at the agricultural research station of shiraz university, shiraz, during 2009 growing season. five wheat cultivars including shiraz, bahar, pishtaz, sistan and yavaros and four levels of water regime including well watering [irr...

In order to evaluate canopy and organs temperature depression (TD) under heat stress conditions and the effects of plant morphology on organs temperature depression and their association with grain yield, two field experiments were conducted using six wheat cultivars (Behrang, Chamran, Kauz, Koohdasht, Karim and Montana) planted on three dates (early, optimum, late) in 2014-2015 and 2015 -2016 ...

abstract to optimal use of available water, irrigation scheduling is important to over scarcity of water resources in arid and semi-arid area. in this research to estimate of maximum allowable deficit (or: management allowed depletion) and irrigation scheduling of fodder mays based on canopy-air temperature difference, a field study was conducted in agricultural faculty of karaj. the lower limi...

Coarse woody debris (CWD) and canopy gaps are thought to be important structural components that influence forest ecosystem processes, yet few studies have assessed whether these features interact to influence decay dynamics, and we know of none that does so under controlled experimental canopy gap conditions. By manipulating forest structure to create canopy openings, we tested whether canopy ...

because of importance of morphological characteristics, canopy temperature and their relationship with grain yield in rice varieties, an experiment was conducted based on split plot in a randomized complete block design with three replications in two years (2013-2014) at the college of agriculture, university of guilan. the experiment consisted of three transplanting times (5, 20 may and 5 june...

Canopy temperature is a useful indicator of crop water stress and can also be used for making timely irrigation scheduling decisions for center pivot and subsurface drip irrigation systems. However, it is not known how closely the measured canopy temperature from a circular area of the canopy surface compares with a larger continuous area that includes the full canopy width. A study was conduct...

The thermal radiation distribution within and above the canopy is explored. CUPID model is chosen to simulate the canopy component temperatures. TRGM model, based on 3D realistic structure and radiosity solution, is used to simulate the component brightness temperature distribution within canopy and thermal radiation emission directionality distribution TB (θ) above canopy. It is noted that the...

Agricultural aircraft and unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) are easily scheduled and accessible remote sensing platforms. Canopy temperature data for crop stress analysis were obtained with an Electrophysics PV-320T thermal imaging camera mounted in agricultural aircraft. Weather data and soil water potential were monitored and thermal images were analyzed for canopy temperature trends accounting...

Maintaining human thermal comfort (HTC) is essential for pedestrians because people outside can be more susceptible to heat stress and heat stroke. Modification of street microclimates using tree canopy cover can provide important benefits to pedestrians, but how beneficial and under what circumstances is not clear. On sunny summer days, microclimatic measures were made in residential streets w...

canopy temperature (ct) is used as a selection tool to improve crop adaptation to drought. the aim of this work was to investigate association of some photosynthetic characters with ct during grain filling in three cereal species. for this objective, a two-year study (2009-2011) was carried out in kurdistan province in western iran. four genotypes of triticale, three cultivars of bread wheat, a...
