In particular, new sensors are now available with reduced dimensions, reduced costs, and increased performances, which can be implemented and integrated in production systems, providing more data and eventually an increase in information. It is of great importance to support the digital transformation, precision agriculture, and smart farming, and to eventually allow a revolution in the way food is produced. In order to exploit these results, authoritative studies from the research world are still needed to support the development and implementation of new solutions and best practices. This Special Issue is aimed at bringing together recent developments related to novel sensors and their proved or potential applications in agriculture.Research & information: generalbicsscBiology, life sciencesbicsscTechnology, engineering, agriculturebicsscprecision farmingsensor fusionremote sensingfluorescencereflectancespectrometrynitrogen fertilisationwheatyieldDrainage Pipe MappingGround Penetrating Radar (GPR)Real-Time Kinematic Global Navigation Satellite System (RTK/GNSS)dynamic vapor sorptionhigh-precision dryermodelingwater vapor pressure deficitautonomous robotagricultureviticultureelectric weedersonarintra-rowunder-vinerow followingdate palmsprecision agricultureplantation managementthermalhyperspectralData-driven agricultureISOBUSRear hitch positionWheel-based machine speedIR imagingcanopy temperaturemaximum temperature differencefungal infectionwheat genotypescalibration functioncapacitive soil moisture sensorinternet-based data acquisitionsoil moisture contentinfrared thermographyIRTtree inspectioninspection techniquestree monitoringfood securityfood systemdigitalizationhuman securityInternet of thingssustainableBarents regiontrees inspectiontrees monitoringVTAsustainabilitydrift risk assessment toolsedimenting spray driftairborne spray driftweather conditionsspray drift reductionrotary harrowsecondary tillagesoil erosionRFIDCRNSneutroncosmic-raysoil moisturewateragricultural sensorsagricultural engineeringdigital farmingembedded sensorsISO 11783Research & information: generalBiology, life sciencesTechnology, engineering, agricultureParaforos Dimitrios Sedt1294140Fountas SpyrosedtMarinello FrancescoedtParaforos Dimitrios SothFountas SpyrosothMarinello FrancescoothBOOK9910557108803321Sensors Application in Agriculture3022921UNINA03951nam 2200865 450 991078042610332120231206214514.01-282-03994-697866120399421-4426-8231-010.3138/9781442682313(CKB)2420000000004487(OCoLC)244767014(CaPaEBR)ebrary10200882(SSID)ssj0000309011(PQKBManifestationID)11225448(PQKBTitleCode)TC0000309011(PQKBWorkID)10267651(PQKB)11223281(CaPaEBR)417827(CaBNvSL)thg00600753(DE-B1597)465032(OCoLC)1013942798(OCoLC)954123661(DE-B1597)9781442682313(Au-PeEL)EBL4672157(CaPaEBR)ebr11257837(OCoLC)815769240(MdBmJHUP)musev2_105432(VaAlCD)20.500.12592/8hgd0d(schport)gibson_crkn/2009-12-01/6/417827(MiAaPQ)EBC4672157(MiAaPQ)EBC3251327(EXLCZ)99242000000000448720160922h19981998 uy 0engurcn|||||||||txtccrThe science of war Canadian scientists and Allied military technology during the Second World War /Donald H.

This book explains how and why Canada was able to play in the big leagues of military technology, particularly in the development of radar, RDX explosives, proximity fuses, chemical and biological warfare, and the atomic bomb. It also investigates the evolution of the Canadian national security state, which attempted to protect defence secrets both from the Axis powers and from Canada's wartime ally, the Soviet Union."--Jacket.World War, 1939-1945ScienceCanadaWorld War, 1939-1945TechnologyMilitary researchCanadaHistoryMilitary weaponsCanadaHistoryWorld War, 1939-1945CanadaKanadaswdKanadagndCanadafastLivres numeriques.History.e-books.Electronic books.
