The present study investigates remote sensing based approach of large-area crop water requirement using vegetation indices as proxy indicator of crop coefficient (Kc). This study is an attempt to estimate the reasonably proper Kc for lowland rice and wheat and subsequently crop evapotranspiration (ETc) in rice-wheat system using multitemporal IRS P6-AWiFS data integrated with meteorological dat...

Leaf area index (LAI) is a significant biophysical variable in the models of hydrology, climatology and crop growth. Rapid monitoring of LAI is critical in modern precision agriculture. Remote sensing (RS) on satellite, aerial and unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) has become a popular technique in monitoring crop LAI. Among them, UAVs are highly attractive to researchers and agriculturists. Howev...

Chinese cabbage is a key vegetable crop in northwest China. It of great significance to study the evapotranspiration (ET) and coefficient (Kc) for agricultural water-saving management this area. Eddy covariance (EC) was used measure ET Kc China from 1 May 16 October 2020, order analyze characteristics these variables under plastic mulch. The results showed that average first higher middle late ...

Accurate detection of heavy metal-induced stress on the growth of crops is essential for agricultural ecological environment and food security. This study focuses on exploring singularity parameters as indicators for a crop’s Zn stress level assessment by applying wavelet analysis to the hyperspectral reflectance. The field in which the experiment was conducted is located in the Changchun City,...

To extract the sensitive bands for estimating the winter wheat growth status and yields, field experiments were conducted. The crop variables including aboveground biomass (AGB), soil and plant analyzer development (SPAD) value, yield, and canopy spectra were determined. Statistical methods of correlation analysis, partial least squares (PLS), and stepwise multiple linear regression (SMLR) were...
