👉 Drought tolerance research is a trendy topic these days regarding the spread of gloabal warming. Many of our forests are struggling to renew themselves naturally because of the weather conditions that unables seedlings to set their roots deeply enough in the soil.
🌱 One of the way to renew forest is to evaluate the drought tolerance of tree varieties to find the most resisting ones to climate change, with fast & strong root development. Image analytics can help reaching that goal by assessing for example tree height, trunk diameter, evapotranspiration & stomatal conductance, tree crown volume and more on a daily basis, under greenhouses & nurseries conditions.
