Net canopy interception (Inet) during rainfall in an old-growth Douglas-fir–western hemlock ecosystem was 22.8 and 25.0% of the gross rainfall (PG) for 1999 and 2000, respectively. The average direct throughfall proportion (p) and canopy storage capacity (S) derived from high-temporal resolution throughfall measurements were 0.36 and 3.3 mm, respectively. Derived values of S were very sensitive...

this experiment was conducted to evaluate the drought tolerance of cultivated (carthamus tinctorius l.) and wild safflower (c. oxyacanthus bieb) populations at research farm of college of agriculture, isfahan university of technology located at lavark-najafabad in 2008. a randomized complete block design with 3 replications was used in each of irrigation levels after 80, 130 and 180 mm evaporat...

in order to study of drought stress on physiological and agronomicalcharacteristics of rapeseed varieties, an experiment was carried out as split plot basedon randomized complete block design with three replications at yazd region duringof 2011-2012. irrigation treatments was designed in two levels as main plot includingirrigation after 80 mm evaporation from evaporation pan, class a (control t...

Tillage-induced changes in soil properties are difficult to predict, yet can influence evaporation, infiltration and howwater is redistributedwithin the profile after precipitation.We evaluated the effects of sweep tillage (ST) on near surface soil water dynamics as compared with an untilled (UT) soil during a 7-month period. Plots were established in a fallow field devoid of residue under stub...

Dengue is a public health problem on the rise in many tropical regions and affects approximately 100 million people every year worldwide. In this paper, the authors retrospectively assess the association between five climatological variables and dengue incidence using data from the 2002 dengue epidemic in Colima, Mexico. Pluvial precipitation (mm), evaporation (mm), and mean, maximum, and minim...

to evaluate the effect of drought stress, biofertilizer and chemical phosphorus fertilizer on yield and seed protein percentage of two lentil cultivars, an experiment was conducted in split factorial based on crbd design with 4 replications in research farm of university of tehran (karaj-iran) during 2009-10. the main factor including three irrigation levels (irrigation after 70, 90 and 130 mm ...

Cooling demands of advanced electronics are increasing rapidly, often exceeding capabilities of conventional thermal management techniques. Thin film evaporation has emerged as one of the most promising thermal management solutions. High heat transfer rates can be achieved in thin films of liquids due to a small conduction resistance through the film to the evaporating interface. In this thesis...
