Crop water stress index is a sensitive water stress indicator in pistachio trees

Quantifying water stress in canola (Brassica napus L.) using crop water stress index

The relationship between canopy temperature and soil moisture is particularly important because of using canopy temperature as an indicator of crop water stress. A field experiment was conducted to calculate crop water stress index (CWSI) of two canola cultivars including RGS and Sarigol at College of Agriculture and Natural Resources of Darab, Shiraz University, Iran during 2013-2014 growing s...

determination of crop water stress index for pistachio trees under subsurface drip irrigation using canopy-air temperature difference

this study was conducted to determine the possibility of a crop water stress index (cwsi) to schedule irrigation for pistachio tree under subsurface drip irrigation. the effects of two irrigation intervals consisting 3 (i3) and 14 (i14) days based on measuring soil water content were investigated on the cwsi. from 22 may (doy 143) to 22 september (doy 266), the evapotranspiration in i3 and i14 ...

Comparative Study on the Effect of Water Stress and Rootstock on Photosynthetic Function in Pistachio (Pistacia vera L.) Trees

The aim of this study is to evaluate the  effects of water deficit stress on chlorophyll fluorescence (CF) characteristics of photosystem II (PSII) and pigment contents in two rootstock seedlings (Pistacia atlantica L. and P. khinjuk L.). Three levels of soil water potential (Ψs) was used, including WWD (-0.05 MPa), MWD (-0.7 MPa) and SWD (-1.5 MPa). It was found that water stress increased the...

Electrodermal Activity Is Sensitive to Cognitive Stress under Water

When divers are at depth in water, the high pressure and low temperature alone can cause severe stress, challenging the human physiological control systems. The addition of cognitive stress, for example during a military mission, exacerbates the challenge. In these conditions, humans are more susceptible to autonomic imbalance. Reliable tools for the assessment of the autonomic nervous system (...
