Growth and nutritional properties of lettuce affected by different alternating intervals of red and blue LED irradiation
TL;DR: In this paper, the effects of alternating red light (R) and blue light (B) provided by LEDs on the growth and nutritional properties of "Green Oak leaf" were examined, and the results showed that different types of radiation led to obvious morphological changes, plants with simultaneous RB appeared the most sparse while those with RB’ looked the most compact.
Journal ArticleDOI
Development of a simulation-based decision support workflow for the implementation of Building-Integrated Agriculture (BIA) in urban contexts
TL;DR: A simulation-based environmental analysis workflow for Building-Integrated Agriculture (BIA) in urban contexts, that includes detailed solar radiation, water and energy specific models is presented to guide the user through decision-making on the potentialities of implementing BIA in a given neighborhood while maximizing crop yields and minimizing water andEnergy consumption.
Journal ArticleDOI
Building integrated agriculture information modelling (BIAIM): An integrated approach towards urban agriculture
TL;DR: In this paper, a building integrated agriculture information modelling tool is proposed for urban agriculture, which is integrated with Building Information Modeling (BIA) and BIM maturity level, which can help to design an optimum environment building for plants.

Improving Light Distribution by Zoom Lens for Electricity Savings in a Plant Factory with Light-Emitting Diodes.
Kun Li,Li Zhipeng,Qichang Yang +2 more
TL;DR: The improvement saved over half of the light source electricity, while prominently lowering the temperature, and the rate of photosynthesis sharply decreased, causing reductions in plant yield and nitrate content, while having no negative effects on morphological parameters and photosynthesis pigment contents.
Journal ArticleDOI
Effect of Greenhouse Design Parameters on the Heating and Cooling Requirement of Greenhouses in Moroccan Climatic Conditions
Noureddine Choab,Amine Allouhi,Anas El Maakoul,Tarik Kousksou,Said Saadeddine,Abdelmajid Jamil +5 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors investigated key design parameters that affect the thermal behavior and the heating/cooling energy need of a greenhouse situated in Agadir (Morocco) and found that the East-West greenhouse orientation is the optimum orientation as it can reduce the annual cost of air-conditioning of the greenhouse by 9.28% compared to North-South orientation.

Crop evapotranspiration : guidelines for computing crop water requirements
TL;DR: In this paper, an updated procedure for calculating reference and crop evapotranspiration from meteorological data and crop coefficients is presented, based on the FAO Penman-Monteith method.
Journal ArticleDOI
Evaluation and modelling of greenhouse cucumber-crop transpiration under high and low radiation conditions
TL;DR: In this article, the transpiration time course of soilless culture cucumber plants (Cucumis sativus L.) during two cycles, at low (up to 9MJm−m−2ǫd−1) and high ( up to 20MJm −m− 2ǫ d−1), was analyzed, and their relationship with greenhouse climate parameters (incident radiation and vapour pressure deficit, VPD) and canopy development was found.
Journal ArticleDOI
A simplified model for predicting evapotranspiration rate of nine ornamental species vs. climate factors and leaf area
TL;DR: In this paper, a survey of nine greenhouse ornamental species (Begonia, Cyclamen, Gardenia, Gloxinia, Hibiscus, Impatients, Pelargonium, Poinsettia and Schefflera) has been carried out concurrently with the measurements of evapotranspiration rate.
Journal ArticleDOI
Transpiration from geranium grown under high temperatures and low humidities in greenhouses
TL;DR: The agreement between measured and calculated transpiration was good for the wide range of temperature, radiation and humidity levels that occurred during the 42 days of the test and a simplified model of daytime transpiration based on easily measured variables is presented.
