Every year, plant diseases cause a significant loss of valuable food crops around the world.
The plant and crop disease management practice implemented in order to mitigate …

Evaporation (E) and transpiration (T) respond differently to ongoing changes in climate,
atmospheric composition, and land use. It is difficult to partition ecosystem-scale …

Evapotranspiration (ET) is critical in linking global water, carbon and energy cycles.
However, direct measurement of global terrestrial ET is not feasible. Here, we first reviewed …

In agriculture, remotely sensed data play a crucial role in providing valuable information on
