Greenhouse cooling by a fog system: Effects on microclimate and on production and quality of a soilless pepper crop
(2006)
The influence of greenhouse humidity control on greenhouse microclimate, crop transpiration rate, and yield and fruit quality of a soilless grown pepper crop was studied in a greenhouse located in the coastal area of western ...
Greenhouse microclimate and soilless pepper crop production and quality as affected by a fog evaporative cooling system
(2007)
The influence of greenhouse! humidity control on greenhouse microclimate, crop transpiration rate, and yield and. fruit quality of a soilless grown pepper crop was studied in a greenhouse located at the coastal area of ...
Use of a decision support system for management of the drainage solution in semi-closed hydroponic systems under different drainage fractions
(2014)
Soilless cultivation, especially in closed-loop hydroponic systems offers a great option for water saving in greenhouses. Capture and recycling of the excess irrigation water that drains out of the root zone is possible ...
Performance test of a Na+ accumulation model as part of a decision support system for closed hydroponic systems management
(2012)
The recycling of greenhouse effluents in soilless cultivation systems is environment-friendly, since the waste of water and the disposal of nutrients to the environment is drastically reduced or even eliminated. However, ...
Evaluation of crop reflectance indices for greenhouse irrigation scheduling
(2012)
Development of direct, non-contact, non-destructive methods for irrigation control purposes is of great interest. The present work deals with the evaluation of reflectance indices for irrigation control in greenhouse ...
Relationships between Reflectance and Water Status in a Greenhouse Rocket (Eruca sativa Mill.) Cultivation
(2013)
Crop water status is an important parameter for plant growth and yield performance in greenhouses, and thus early detection of water stress is essential for efficient crop management. Therefore, the aim of this work was ...
Development and evaluation of a DSS for drainage management in semi-closed hydroponic systems
(2014)
The recycling of greenhouse effluents in soilless cultivation systems is environment-friendly, since the waste of water and the disposal of nutrients to the environment is drastically reduced or even eliminated. However, ...
Interactions between salinity and irrigation frequency in greenhouse pepper grown in closed-cycle hydroponic systems
(2007)
Two different irrigation regimes with two different salinity levels were applied to peppers (Capsicum annum L.) grown in closed hydroponic systems in a glasshouse. The two salinity levels were attained by adding NaCl to ...
Response of an eggplant crop grown under Mediterranean summer conditions to greenhouse fog cooling
(2009)
The effects of greenhouse cooling using a high-pressure fog system on greenhouse microclimate and on eggplant (Solanum melongena) crop response were studied at the coastal area of western Greece. Measurements were carried ...
Extension and evaluation of a model for automatic drainage solution management in tomato crops grown in semi-closed hydroponic systems
(2015)
In the present paper, a model previously developed to simulate the course of Na+ accumulation in closed hydroponic systems as a function of plant water consumption was further extended so as to be operative also in semi-closed ...
