Sensitivity analysis in mean annual sediment yield modeling with respect to rainfall probability distribution functions
(MDPI, 2023-01)An accurate estimation of the mean annual sediment yield from basins contributes to optimizing water resources planning and management. More specifically, both reservoir sedimentation and the damage caused to infrastructures ... -
Tree species growth response to climate in mixtures of Quercus robur/Quercus petraea and Pinus sylvestris across Europe - a dynamic, sensitive equilibrium
(Elsevier, 2023)Quercus robur/Quercus petraea and Pinus sylvestris are widely distributed and economically important tree species in Europe co-occurring on mesotrophic, xeric and mesic sites. Increasing dry conditions may reduce their ... -
Downstream changes of particle entrainment in a hydropeaked river
(Elsevier, 2020-11-25)Hydropeaking, through artificially generated flow peaks, affects hydro-sedimentary dynamics on rivers. The frequency and magnitude of such artificial flow pulses impact sedimentary process and, inevitably, affects bed-material ... -
Soil hydraulic properties and pore dynamics under different tillage and irrigated crop sequences
(Elsevier, 2023)Soil hydraulic properties and pore continuity are important parameters of soil quality and may differ among tillage systems, crop rotations, and change over time. However, there are some contrasting results, depending on ... -
Spatial Prioritization for Wildfire Mitigation by Integrating Heterogeneous Spatial Data: A New Multi-Dimensional Approach for Tropical Rainforests
(MDPI, 2022)Wildfires drive deforestation that causes various losses. Although many studies have used spatial approaches, a multi-dimensional analysis is required to determine priority areas for mitigation. This study identified ... -
Unravelling the effect of species mixing on water use and drought stress in Mediterranean forests: a modelling approach
(Elsevier, 2021)Understanding how water use and drought stress in woody plants change in relation to compositional, structural and environmental variability of mixed forests is key to understand their functioning and dynamics. Observational ... -
Spatial predictions of human and natural-caused wildfire likelihood across Montana (USA)
(MDPI, 2022)Spatial wildfire ignition predictions are needed to ensure efficient and effective wildfire response, and robust methods for modeling new wildfire occurrences are ever-emerging. Here, ignition locations of natural and ... -
Trajectories of wildfire behavior under climate change. Can forest management mitigate the increasing hazard?
(Elsevier, 2022)Mediterranean forests and fire regimes are closely intertwined. Global change is likely to alter both forest dynamics and wildfire activity, ultimately threatening the provision of ecosystem services and posing greater ... -
Metodología para el análisis de los errores y validación de nubes de puntos 3D obtenidas en campo para la caracterización de la arquitectura de árboles frutales
(2021)El estudio de la estructura de la planta (índice de área foliar, porosidad del dosel, densidad foliar, arquitectura leñosa y sistema de entrenamiento) y de su geometría (tamaño, forma y volumen) es básico para realizar ... -
R software code to process and extract information from 3D Lidar point clouds
(2019)In the process of electronic canopy characterization, it is necessary to process efficiently point clouds obtained by means of sensors or other capturing information systems. These point clouds may have different origin ... -
Perceptions of Heat Stress, Heat Strain and Mitigation Practices in Wildfire Suppression across Southern Europe and Latin America
(MDPI, 2022)This study aimed to assess current perceptions of heat stress, heat strain, acclimatisation and recovery practices in wildland fire suppression. A total of 1459 wildfire and structural firefighters, all involved in wildland ... -
Coupled effects of climate teleconnections on drought, Santa Ana winds and wildfires in southern California
(Elsevier, 2021)Projections of future climate change impacts suggest an increase of wildfire activity in Mediterranean ecosystems, such as southern California. This region is a wildfire hotspot and fire managers are under increasingly high ... -
Manejo de malas hierbas bajo la línea del viñedo mediante acolchados orgánicos y su efecto sobre el vigor del cultivo
(Sociedad Española de Ciencias Hortícolas, 2022)En una parcela de viñedo de Raimat (Lleida) cv. ‘Chardonnay’ se estudió, durante la campaña 2019, el efecto de cuatro estrategias de manejo de malas hierbas bajo las cepas: 1) laboreo con intercepas, 2) pases de segadora, ... -
Assessment of different N treatments in Hedgerow Almond Orchards by means of LiDAR point clouds
(2022)Monitoring of canopy status in fruit tree orchards allows better decisions in the canopy management, such as pruning or fertirrigation. LiDAR is an effective tool to acquire accurate 3D geometric and structural data, ... -
Análisis del dosel foliar de setos olivo mediante LiDAR y su relación con la productividad y atributos de calidad del aceite
(2022)La gestión del cultivo del olivo, particularmente en condiciones superintensivas, es clave para alcanzar la productividad y la calidad del aceite necesarias para mantener las expectativas económicas de las explotaciones. ... -
Understanding fire regimes in Europe
(CSIRO Publishing, 2021)Wildland fire effects are strongly associated with fire regime characteristics. Here, we developed the first European pyrogeography based on different fire regime components to better understand fire regimes across the ... -
Sensores de conductividad eléctrica aparente para el análisis de la variabilidad del suelo en Agricultura de Precisión
(2022)Los suelos son un recurso natural fundamental en agricultura, ya que sustentan la vida de las plantas. El conocimiento de sus propiedades y cómo varían en el espacio es fundamental para mantener su productividad y para la ... -
AKFruitData: A dual software application for Azure Kinect cameras to acquire and extract informative data in yield tests performed in fruit orchard environments
(Elsevier, 2022-10-29)The emergence of low-cost 3D sensors, and particularly RGB-D cameras, together with recent advances in artificial intelligence, is currently driving the development of in-field methods for fruit detection, size measurement ... -
Multi-beam LiDAR-derived data analysis for optimal canopy 3D monitoring in super-intensive almond (Prunus dulcis) orchards
