Analysis and calibration of empirical relationships for estimating evapotranspiration in Qatar: Case study
(
American Society of Civil Engineers (ASCE)
, 2017 , Article)
Knowledge of evapotranspiration (ETo), which is the process of water loss from vegetated soils due to evaporation and transpiration, is important in real-time irrigation management and water-resource allocation, particularly ...
Robust consensus of autonomous underactuated surface vessels
(
Institution of Engineering and Technology
