Estimating canopy fuel load with hemispherical photographs: A rapid method for opportunistic fuel documentation with smartphones
(British Ecological Society, 2021-08)
Canopy fuel load (CFL) affects wildfire intensity and is a critical input for fire behaviour models; however, measuring CFL in the field is time-consuming and costly. Until recently, hemispherical photographs have been ...
Changes in leaflet shape and seeds per pod modify crop growth parameters, canopy light environment, and yield components in soybean
(Elsevier, 2020-04)
Seed number (SN) is the component most strongly associated with yield in soybean. SN depends on pod number (PN) and seeds per pod (SPP). Whereas SPP is a relatively stable component, PN is strongly influenced by environmental ...
Seed size underlies the uncoupling in species composition between canopy and recruitment layers in European forests
(Elsevier Science, 2019-10)
Increasing evidence supports that canopy richness favors multifunctionality in European forests. Given that recruitment represents one of the main demographic bottlenecks in plant communities, the provision of similar ...
Changes in the fish fauna associated with a sub-Antarctic Macrocystis pyrifera kelp forest in response to canopy removal
(Springer, 2007-12)
The fish fauna associated with a Macrocystis pyrifera forest and the effects of the canopy removal on this fauna were studied in the Beagle Channel, Tierra del Fuego. Seasonal changes and differences in the fish communities ...
Re-absorption and scattering of chlorophyll fluorescence in canopies: A revised approach
(Elsevier Science Inc., 2020-09)
The measurement of chlorophyll fluorescence in remote way represents a tool that is becoming increasingly important in relation to the diagnosis of plant health and carbon budget on the planet. However, the detection of ...
An empirical model that uses light attenuation and plant nitrogen status to predict within-canopy N distribution and upscale photosynthesis from leaf to whole canopy
(2015-10-03)
Modelling the spatial and temporal distribution of leaf nitrogen (N) is central to specify photosynthetic
parameters and simulate canopy photosynthesis. Leaf photosynthetic parameters depend on both local light availability
and ...
Effects of single-tree selection harvesting on hymenopteran and saproxylic insect assemblages in the canopy and understory of northern temperate forests
(Springer Tokyo, 2012-06)
Insects respond to changes in microhabitat caused by canopy disturbance, and thus can be used to examine the ecological impacts of harvesting. Single-tree selection harvesting is the most common silvicultural system used ...
Genetic and environmental dissection of biomass accumulation in multi-genotype maize canopies
(Oxford University Press, 2019-04-15)
Multi-genotype canopies are frequent in phenotyping experiments and are of increasing interest in agriculture. Radiation interception efficiency (RIE) and radiation use efficiency (RUE) have low heritabilities in such ...
Pressures on open canopy structures with parapets under wind loading
(Elsevier, 2013)
Developing a prescription for brush control in the Chaco region, effects of combined treatments on the canopy of three native shrub species
(Taylor & Francis, 2018)
Shrub encroachment is frequent in grazing lands in the Chaco region, Argentina. Fire is used by cattlemen to reduce the dominance of the shrub stands, improve forage standing biomass and quality, and enhance grazing ...
