• Soil-Organic-Carbon Concentration and Storage under Different Land Uses in the Carrizal-Chone Valley in Ecuador 

  Reyna-Bowen, Lizardo; Vera-Montenegro, Lenin; Reyna, Lizardo (MDPI, 2019)

  Soil organic carbon (SOC) is an important indicator of soil quality; an elevated percentage of SOC indicates very high-quality soil, physically as well as chemically. As such, the principal objective of the present study ...

• Differences in the Response to Acute Drought and Phytophthora cinnamomi Rands Infection in Quercus ilex L. Seedlings 

  Ruiz Gómez, Francisco; Pérez de Luque, A.; Sánchez-Cuesta, Rafael; Quero, José L.; Navarro Cerrillo, Rafael M. (MDPI, 2018)

  The sustainability of “dehesas” is threatened by the Holm oak decline. It is thought that the effects of root rot on plant physiology vary depending on external stress factors. Plant growth and biomass allocation are ...

• Population Genetic Diversity of Quercus ilex subsp. ballota (Desf.) Samp. Reveals Divergence in Recent and Evolutionary Migration Rates in the Spanish Dehesas 

  Fernández i Marti, Ángel; Romero-Rodríguez, M. Cristina; Navarro Cerrillo, Rafael M.; Abril, Nieves; Jorrín-Novo, Jesús V.; Dodd, Richard S. (MDPI, 2018)

  The Spanish dehesas have been severely affected by human activities that date to the prehistoric period and have suffered accelerated decline since the 1980s. Holm oak (Quercus ilex subsp. ballota (Desf.) Samp.) is a key ...

• Assessing the Crop-Water Status in Almond (Prunus dulcis Mill.) Trees via Thermal Imaging Camera Connected to Smartphone 

  García-Tejero, Iván Francisco; Ortega-Arévalo, Carlos José; Iglesias-Contreras, Manuel; Moreno, José Manuel; Souza, Luciene; Cuadros Tavira, S.; Durán-Zuazo, Víctor Hugo (MDPI, 2018)

  Different tools are being implemented in order to improve the water management in agricultural irrigated areas of semiarid environments. Thermography has been progressively introduced as a promising technique for irrigation ...

• Airborne Laser Scanning Cartography of On-Site Carbon Stocks as a Basis for the Silviculture of Pinus Halepensis Plantations 

  Navarro Cerrillo, Rafael M.; Duque Lazo, Joaquín; Rodríguez-Vallejo, Carlos; Varo-Martínez, Mª Ángeles; Palacios Rodríguez, Guillermo (MDPI, 2018)

  Forest managers are interested in forest-monitoring strategies using low density Airborne Laser Scanning (ALS). However, little research has used ALS to estimate soil organic carbon (SOC) as a criterion for operational ...
