Evaluation of pre-harvest desiccation strategies in red clover (Trifolium pratense L.) and white clover (Trifolium repens L.) seed crops
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022-07-07)Desiccation with diquat about one week before seed harvest has been common practise in Norwegian clover seed production. However, after withdrawal of diquat in 2020, clover seed growers no longer have desiccators available. ... -
Evaluation of Satellite Rainfall Products over the Mahaweli River Basin in Sri Lanka
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022-04-25)The availability of accurate spatiotemporal rainfall data is of utmost importance for reliable predictions from hydroclimatological studies. Challenges and limitations faced due to the absence of dense rain gauge (RG) ... -
Evaluation of the Entomopathogenic Potential of Beauveria bassiana, Metarhizium anisopliae and Isaria fumosorosea for Management of Cosmopolites sordidus Germar (Coleoptera: Curculionidae)
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021-12-18)The banana weevil (BW), Cosmopolites sordidus, is the main coleopteran pest of banana, causing up to 100% yield loss. In this study, we screened 20 isolates of entomopathogenic fungi (EPF) for the management of BW. In the ... -
Evaluation of the Impact of Land Use Changes on Soil Erosion in the Tropical Maha Oya River Basin, Sri Lanka
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022-12-29)Soil degradation is a serious environmental issue in many regions of the world, and Sri Lanka is not an exception. Maha Oya River Basin (MORB) is one of the major river basins in tropical Sri Lanka, which suffers from ... -
Evaluation of two new-generation global soil databases for macro-scale hydrological modelling in Norway
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022-05-07)Lack of national soil property maps limits the studies of soil moisture (SM) dynamics in Norway. One alternative is to apply the global soil data as input for macro-scale hydrological modelling, but the quality of these ... -
Evaluation of Vineyard Cropping Systems Using On-Board RGB-Depth Perception
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020-12-03)A non-destructive measuring technique was applied to test major vine geometric traits on measurements collected by a contactless sensor. Three-dimensional optical sensors have evolved over the past decade, and these ... -
Even small forest patches increase bee visits to flowers in an oil palm plantation landscape
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021-11-11)Pollination sustains biodiversity and food security, but pollinators are threatened by habitat degradation, fragmentation, and loss. We assessed how remaining forest influenced bee visits to flowers in an oil palm-dominated ... -
Ex-situ biological CO2 methanation using trickle bed reactor: review and recent advances
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2021-08-03)Power-to-methane technology is a promising solution to facilitate the use of excess variable renewable energy for biomethane production. In this approach, hydrogen produced via electrolysis is used to upgrade raw biogas, ... -
Examining approaches for modeling individual tree growth response to thinning in Norway spruce
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022-08-02)Using periodic measurements from permanent plots in non-thinned and thinned Norway spruce (Picea abies (L.) H. Karst.) stands in Norway, individual-tree growth models were developed to predict annual diameter increment, ... -
Experiences from a National Landscape Monitoring Programme: Maintaining Continuity Whilst Meeting Changing Demands and Opportunities
(Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2019-04-30)Over the past few decades, there has been increasing interest in recording landscape change. Monitoring programmes have been established to measure the scope, direction and rate of change, and assess the consequences of ... -
Experimental warming and precipitation reduction affect the biomass of microbial communities in a Sphagnum peatland
(Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2020-02-15)Due to their unique flora, hydrology and environmental characteristics, peatlands are precious and specific habitats for microorganisms and microscopic animals. Their microbial network structure and their biomass are crucial ... -
