Analyse de la campagne agricole 2003 en terme de stress hydrique

peer reviewed ; This article presents the evaluation of the crop water stress in 2003 using the Belgian Crop Growth Monitoring System (B-CGMS). The indicator used is the Relative Soil Moisture Index (RSMI), and is based on a calculation integrating soil moisture data. This index shows the differences between needed and effectively available soil water for different crop types. It is one of the outputs of the B-CGMS agrometeorological model. Based on a fixed threshold, days affected by water stress have been identified and computed for specific periods during which lack of soil water is likely... Mehr ...
