It's official! Our own Rui Gao, PhD (he/his) Rui Gao is officially a PhD Candidate. His work on vineyards biomass, ET partition and stress will be completed soon. Here a couple of pics of him participating in #UAV flights in the #TREX, #GRAPEX and #TURFEX projects.

An excellent project from our great colleague Lia Ramos Fernandez and her research team on rice water and methane management in Peru. Her videos are a great documentary of her efforts. Check it out!

Our team just spent two intensive days collaborating, brainstorming, and getting to know one another face-to-face. This is what a team looks like that refuses to take lunch breaks or adjourn day one on schedule because we all want to keep talking and moving forward. NIFA

The AggieAir Service Center has moved south onto Madera, CA, to begin GreatBlue fixed wing flights over 450 acres of Almond orchard to assess water use.

#drone’s visible, infrared and thermal like AggieAir can clearly delimit flooding acreage. Combine this with city’s infrastructure information and an inventory of personal and city’s affected assets can be seamlessly generated.

This is fantastic news! This type of FAA permissions allows for further advances in drone technology and applications across urban, agricultural and natural environments.

At Moray, at the Inca’s crop experimental site. At the bottom the weather is warmer than on higher ground. The narrower stairs are not wider than 3 meters. I wonder how this site will look like on a drone thermal imagery? Also, many weather stations. #Landsat is too coarse πŸ₯²
