(2018-01-29)Long-term soil moisture monitoring sites are a source of data both for drought forecasting and hydrological and land surface modeling validation. Uncertainties in soil moisture monitoring data are not well documented and ...
-
(2023-04-21)Poor soil management limits the soil functions of water infiltration and storage and enhances water and soil losses. Amidst recurring droughts and declining water availability, improved soil management practices such as ...
-
(2019-07-29)The cosmic-ray neutron sensors (CRNS) are a proximal sensor that can be used to estimate spatially averaged soil moisture at hectometer scale. The sensor measures the number of thermalized neutrons created by the collision ...

(2019-11-18)Constraints on food, land and water resources pose a need for conservation practices to maintain viable agricultural lands. Wheat - a staple cereal grain for humans and animals worldwide - has been heavily cultivated in ...
-
(2016-04-26)Soil moisture is an important component in many hydrologic and land– atmosphere interactions. Proper characterization of soil moisture variability is vital for understanding hydrological, ecological and biogeochemical ...
-
(2013-10-03)Previous work suggests precipitation is more likely to fall over dry soils than wet soils. The limited knowledge of the association between surface moisture content and convective activity raises many questions about whether ...
-
(2020-01-30)Soil water availability influences the physiological, structural, and functional properties of plants. The physical properties of the soil play an important role in determining water availability, and shapes both the root ...
-
(1982)The development of the antidote R-25788 has made it possible to use the herbicide, Eptam, in corn production. However, there have been many reported cases of safener failure in field corn treated with Eradicane. The chemical ...
-
(2009-05-15)The dissertation focuses on characterization of subpixel variability within a satellite-based remotely sensed coarse-scale soil moisture footprint. The underlying heterogeneity of coarse-scale soil moisture footprint is ...
-
(Texas A&M University, 2005-08-29)The forest product industry is keenly interested in extending the normal planting season, as well as in the comparative field performance of standard nursery bare-root seedlings and containerized rooted cuttings. The effect ...
-
(Texas A&M University, 2004-09-30)This study evaluated the applicability of remote sensing instrumentation for site- specific management of abiotic and biotic stress on cotton grown under a center pivot. Three different irrigation regimes (100%, 75%, and ...

(2020-06-09)Spatial random fields are widely used to model the space-time correlation structure of different objects in various fields, such as the soil moisture field in hydrological, agricultural and climatological studies. Since ...
-
(2018-08-21)The spatial and temporal monitoring of soil moisture from remote sensing platforms plays a pivotal role in predicting the future food and water security. That is, improving soil moisture estimation at remote sensing platforms ...
-
(2018-04-24)Testate amoebae are a group of protozoa that live in aquatic environments such as peatlands, estuaries, and lakes, and their shells are often well-preserved in the sediments of these environments. These organisms are useful ...
