Economic and environmental assessment of variable rate nitrogen application in potato by fusion of online visible and ne...
Addressing within-field spatial variability for nitrogen (N) management to avoid over and under-use of nitrogen is crucial for optimizing crop productivity and ensuring environmental sustainability. In this study, we investigated the economic, environmental, and agronomic benefits of variable rate nitrogen application in potato (Solanum tuberosum L...
Validation of satellite water products based on HYPERNETS in situ data using a Match-up Database (MDB) file structure
A Match-up Database (MDB) file structure and tools were developed to ease the validation analysis of satellite water products and to improve the exchange and processing of match-up data from different sites, missions and atmospheric correction processors. In situ remote sensing reflectance (Rrs) measurements were available from the HYPSTAR (R) (HYp...
On the parsimony, interpretability and predictive capability of a physically−based model in the optical domain for estim...
Soil moisture plays an important role in the transpiration, evaporation and plant growth processes at the land surface-atmosphere interface. Optical remote sensing has great potential for the retrieval of surface soil moisture content (SMC), with many empirical data-driven models or physical models developed to address this issue. Nevertheless, mos...
Upgrading analytical models to predict the onset of degradation in selective laser sintering
The optimisation of selective laser sintering (SLS) of polymeric materials, based on analytical equations providing fast predictions, can broaden the SLS application area. However, the selection of SLS polymeric materials is currently rather limited, due to specific requirements regarding sufficient flowability and limited molecular degradation. Th...

Regulatory miRNAs in Cardiovascular and Alzheimer's Disease: A Focus on Copper.
Published in International journal of molecular sciences
Non-coding RNAs (ncRNAs), including microRNAs (miRNAs), are key regulators of differentiation and development. In the cell, transcription factors regulate the production of miRNA in response to different external stimuli. Copper (Cu) is a heavy metal and an essential micronutrient with widespread industrial applications. It is involved in a number ...
A novel non-integer order Savitzky-Golay derivative function of visible and near-infrared spectra for improving predicti...
Prediction of phosphorus (P) content in manure using visible and near infrared (vis-NIR) spectroscopy is essential for better manure management. However, accurate prediction requires better spectra pre-processing, out of which spectra derivative is frequently used. This study presents the development of a non-integer order SavitzkyGolay derivative ...
Analysis of total soil nutrient content with X-ray Fluorescence Spectroscopy (XRF) : assessing different predictive mode...
The difference in the matrix present in soil samples from different areas limits the performance of nutrient analysis via XRF sensors, and only a few strategies to mitigate this effect to ensure an accurate analysis have been proposed so far. In this context, this research aimed to compare the performance of different predictive models, including a...
Monitoring of drought stress and transpiration rate using proximal thermal and hyperspectral imaging in an indoor automa...
...
Background: Thermography is a popular tool to assess plant water-use behavior, as plant temperature is influenced by transpiration rate, and is commonly used in field experiments to detect plant water deficit. Its application in indoor automated phenotyping platforms is still limited and mainly focuses on differences in plant temperature between ge...
