Joint research project of PJTSAU, NRSC coming up under National Hydrology Project
Professor Jayashankar Telangana State Agricultural University (PJTSAU) has entered into memorandum of understanding with National Remote Sensing Centre (NRSC) of the Indian Space Research Organisation for collaborative research on estimation of evapotranspiration and soil moisture. The study would help estimate the evapotranspiration, sum of water evaporation and transpiration from the soil/water surface area to the atmosphere or movement of water to the air from sources such as soil, canopy interception and water bodies. University Vice-Chancellor V. Praveen Rao said the research would help accurate assessment of crop water requirement and soil moisture content in the backdrop of increasing irrigation facilities in the State.More Related News
