Posez n’importe quelle question sur les cours, conférences, exercices, recherches, actualités, etc. de l’EPFL ou essayez les exemples de questions ci-dessous.
AVERTISSEMENT : Le chatbot Graph n'est pas programmé pour fournir des réponses explicites ou catégoriques à vos questions. Il transforme plutôt vos questions en demandes API qui sont distribuées aux différents services informatiques officiellement administrés par l'EPFL. Son but est uniquement de collecter et de recommander des références pertinentes à des contenus que vous pouvez explorer pour vous aider à répondre à vos questions.
In alpine areas, the snow cover plays an important role as a water reservoir. Water is stored as snow over the winter and released in spring, recharging mountain aquifers through infiltration. These aquifers are essential, especially for supplying water fo ...
In this study, we present a radiative-transfer model to simulate reflectance and transmittance of light by soil slabs. The radiative-transfer model implemented, referred to as the beam-tracing model, uses cross-sectional images of scattering media to descr ...
GPR with a suspended 1 GHz horn antenna was deployed in the greenhouse and field for measurement of near-surface hydrologic parameters over bare and wheat canopy covered soils. Analyses of time-domain (TD) surface reflections (SR) and signal propagation ti ...
The objective of this research is to improve the comprehension of the hydrological behaviour of natural catchments. The main originality of this work is to associate different types of measurement in order to obtain a better vision of hydrological processe ...
Fluorescent dye tracers are used to show concentration maps of tracer fronts, plumes and pathways on soil profiles and in monolith cross sections. The physical process of fluorescence from the exposed soil surfaces must be understood in order to retrieve a ...
An approximate analytical solution is obtained for a physically based model of soil erosion on a gentle slope driven by rainfall impact in which there is inflow of clear or nearly clear water to the top of the soil bed. Comparison of the approximate analyt ...
Even at low residue concentrations, persistent organic pollutants (POPs) are of increasing concern all over the world. They include numerous organochlorine pesticides, like hexachlorocyclohexane (HCH), known for its toxicity, lipophilic properties and very ...
Management of favorable conditions for plant growth within partially wet soil volumes under drip irrigation presents a measurement challenge. Typically, soil water status is determined from a single point measurement or several point measurements within th ...
Anewcavitation erosion testing procedure in high-speed cavitation tunnel is presented. The method is based on surface-mounted obstacles on a plane-convex hydrofoil leading edge. This experimental set-up is able to accelerate the accumulation of damage on s ...
TASC (TYRES/TRACKS AND SOIL COMPACTION) is an Excel tool designed foremost as an aid in arable farming. The vulnerability of the soil to the passage of wheels or tracks is assessed after considering soil and load property factors. Danger of soil compaction ...
