Monthly Precipitation Forecasts Using Wavelet Neural Networks Models in a Semiarid Environment
(MDPI, 2020)
Accurate forecast of hydrological data such as precipitation is critical in order to provide useful information for water resources management, playing a key role in different sectors. Traditional forecasting methods present ...
Postharvest assessments of table olive damage using image analysis and VIS/NIR spectroscopy
(Universidad de Córdoba, UCOPress, 2015)
En la actualidad la recolección de la aceituna de mesa se realiza principalmente
de forma manual. Sin embargo, el elevado coste de la mano de obra, su disponibilidad
temporal y el bajo rendimiento de campo genera un ...
Strategies for the optimization of the efficiency in the plant protection product applications in olive canopies
(Universidad de Córdoba, UCOPress, 2017)
Pesticide applications are necessary to guarantee the proper development of crops and,
therefore, to ensure the profitability for the farmer. However, their mismanagement in last
years has led to important environmental ...
Testing Accuracy of Long-Range Ultrasonic Sensors for Olive Tree Canopy Measurements
(MDPI, 2015)
Ultrasonic sensors are often used to adjust spray volume by allowing the
calculation of the crown volume of tree crops. The special conditions of the olive tree require
the use of long-range sensors, which are less ...
Desarrollo de cosechadoras de olivar tradicional basadas en sacudidores de copa
(Universidad de Córdoba, UCOPress, 2016)
El olivar español es el primer productor mundial de aceite (40%) y de aceituna de
mesa (25%). La mayor parte del olivar no es rentable y es clave reducir sus costes. Dado
que la recolección supone del orden del 50% de ...
Análisis del tiempo de vibrado en el derribo de aceituna mediante vibradores de troncos
(Universidad de Córdoba, Servicio de Publicaciones, 2007)
El objetivo general de esta Tesis es el análisis y optimización del tiempo empleado en la vibración de los olivos mediante vibradores de troncos. Se centra en la determinación del tiempo óptimo de vibración y en la evaluación ...
The potential of conservation agriculture to mitigate climate change in mediterranean areas
(Universidad de Córdoba, UCOPress, 2016)
Agriculture contributes to climate change, and is affected by it. On the one hand,
solar energy is used primarily by photosynthetic organisms which transform it into
carbohydrates, releasing oxygen (O2) whilst consuming ...
Development of a Telemetry and Yield-Mapping System of Olive Harvester
(MDPI, 2015)
Sensors, communication systems and geo-reference units are required to achieve
an optimized management of agricultural inputs with respect to the economic and
environmental aspects of olive groves. In this study, three ...
Olive Crown Porosity Measurement Based on Radiation Transmittance: An Assessment of Pruning Effect
(MDPI, 2016)
Crown porosity influences radiation interception, air movement through the fruit orchard,
spray penetration, and harvesting operation in fruit crops. The aim of the present study was to develop
an accurate and reliable ...
Olive Actual “on Year” Yield Forecast Tool Based on the Tree Canopy Geometry Using UAS Imagery
(MDPI, 2017)
Olive has a notable importance in countries of Mediterranean basin and its profitability
depends on several factors such as actual yield, production cost or product price. Actual “on
year” Yield (AY) is production (kg ...
