Biodiversity recovery of Neotropical secondary forests
(American Association for the Advancement of Science, 2019)
Canopy chlorophyll fluorescence applied to stress detection using an easy-to-build micro-lidar
(Springer Link, 2019)
LEDFLEX is a micro-lidar dedicated to the measurement of vegetation fluorescence. The light source consists of 4 blue Light-Emitting Diodes (LED) to illuminate part of the canopy in order to average the spatial variability ...
Modelling strategies for assessing and increasing the effectiveness of new phenotyping techniques in plant breeding
(ELSEVIER, 2019)
New types of phenotyping tools generate large amounts of data on many aspects of plant physiology and morphology with high spatial and temporal resolution. These new phenotyping data are potentially useful to improve ...
Quantifying soil carbon stocks and humification through spectroscopic methods: A scoping assessment in EMBU-Kenya
(ELSEVIER, 2019)
A soil carbon assessment was performed comparing agricultural cropping systems with natural vegetation along a sampling transect spanning different agro-ecologies on the eastern foot slopes of Mount Kenya in Embu county, ...
Combining reference trials, farm surveys and mathematical models to assess carbon footprint and mitigation measures in tropical agriculture
(ELSEVIER, 2019)
This study aimed at estimating carbon footprint (CF) and assessing mitigation options for selected tropical crops using excel-based models, parameterized with data collected through closed-ended questions questionnaires, ...
Tree cover on cattle farms in the southeast region of Guatemala
(Science Publishing Group, New York (Estados Unidos), 2019)
Often livestock activity is related to deforestation and loss of natural resources such as soil and water quality and
quantity. The strategies that come from this perception seek the minimization of livestock effect of ...
