The Effect of Mulching on the Root Growth of Greenhouse Tomatoes Under Different Drip Irrigation Volumes and Its Distribution Model by Jiankun Ge, Yuhao Zhu, Xuewen Gong, Chuqi Yao, Xinyu Wu, Jiale Zhang, Yanbin Li

“…In the N0.9 treatment, root length density had a bivariate cubic polynomial relationship with soil water and temperature, with a coefficient of determination (<i>R</i>²) of 0.97 and a normalized root mean square error (NRMSE) of 20%. (4) When introducing the film mulching factor (<i>f_m</i>) and water stress factor (<i>K_s</i>) into the root distribution model to simulate the root length density distribution of Y0.9 and Y0.5, it was found that the NRMSE was 22% and <i>R</i>² was 0.90 under the Y0.9 treatment, and the NRMSE was 24% and R² was 0.98 under the Y0.5 treatment. …”
