1. Development Of A Sensor Suite To Determine Plant Water PotentialThe goal of this research was to develop a mobile sensor suite to determine plant water status in almonds and walnuts. The sensor suite consisted of an infrared thermometer to measure leaf temperature and additional sensors to measure relevant ambient conditions such as light intensity, air temperature, air humidity, and wind speed. In the Summer of 2009, the system was used to study the relationship between leaf temperature, plant water status, and relevant microclimatic information in an almond... V. Udompetaikul, S.

2. Evaluation of the Sensor Suite for Detection of Plant Water Stress in Orchard and Vineyard CropsA mobile sensor suite was developed and evaluated to predict plant water status by measuring the leaf temperature of nut trees and grapevines. It consists of an infrared thermometer to measure leaf temperature along with relevant ambient condition sensors to measure microclimatic variables in the vicinity of the leaf. Sensor suite was successfully evaluated in three crops (almonds, walnuts and grapevines) for both sunlit and shaded leaves. Stepwise linear regression models developed for shaded... R. Dhillon, V.

3. In-field Plant Phenotyping Using Multi-view Reconstruction: an Investigation in EggplantRapid methods for plant phenotyping are a growing need in agricultural research to help accelerate improvements in crop performance in order to facilitate more efficient utilization of plant genome sequences and the corresponding advancements in associated methods of genetic improvement. Manual plant phenotyping is time-consuming, laborious, frequently subjective, and often destructive. There is a need for building field-deployable systems with advanced sensors that have both high-speed and high-performance... T. Nguyen, D. Slaughter, B. Townsley, L. Carriedo, J. Maloof, N. Sinha |
4. Time Series Analysis of Somatic Cell Count from Dairy Herds in Minas Gerais - BrazilThe objective of this study was to analyze the temporal variation of somatic cell count (SCC) in milk of dairy cows from the state of Minas Gerais, Brazil. The Holstein Livestock Breeders Association of Minas Gerais provided data collected from 128 dairy farms located in the state of Minas Gerais between the years of 2000 and 2016. The database contains the SCC average of a total of 91,851 305-day lactations of Holstein animals. The annual SCC average was calculated as well as the percentage of... G.M. Dallago, D.
