Interactions between beech and oak seedlings can modify the effects of hotter droughts and the onset of hydraulic failure
Charlotte Grossiord, Eugénie Isabelle Mas, Hervé Cochard, Margaux Clara Lou Didion-Gency, Janisse Deluigi, Fernando Valladares
center dot Mixing species with contrasting resource use strategies could reduce forest vulnerability to extreme events. Yet, how species diversity affects seedling hydraulic responses to heat and drought, including mortality risk, is largely unknown. Using ...
Hoboken2023Efficient numerical representation of the impacts of flexible plant reconfiguration on canopy posture and hydrodynamic drag
This study considered a new approach for representing flexible canopies within large-eddy simulation that captures the impacts of reconfiguration on both the canopy posture and the canopy drag. The unsteady change in plant posture in response to the passag ...
2019Wind sheltering of a lake by a tree canopy or bluff topography
Fernando Porté Agel, Corey Dean Markfort
[1] A model is developed to quantify the wind sheltering of a lake by a tree canopy or a bluff. The experiment-based model predicts the wind-sheltering coefficient a priori, without calibration, and is useful for one-dimensional (1-D) lake hydrodynamic and ...
2010The influence of local meteorological conditions on the circadian rhythm of corn (Zea mays L.) pollen emission
Field experiments were performed to study the diurnal cycle of corn pollen emission and its relation to local meteorological conditions, including temperature, relative humidity, solar radiation, mean wind speed, and turbulence quantities. Pollen concentra ...
2008The influence of pool geometry and induced flow patterns in rock scour by high-velocity plunging jets
The dissipation of energy of flood discharges from water releasing structures of dams is often done by plunging jets diffusing in water and impacting on the riverbed downstream. The construction of expensive concrete structures for energy dissipation can b ...
