Field heterogeneity of soil texture controls leaf water potential spatial distribution predicted from UAS-based vegetation indices in non-irrigated vineyards by L. Delval, J. Bates, J. Bates, F. Jonard, F. Jonard, M. Javaux, M. Javaux

“…Our results demonstrated that in non-irrigated vineyards, the spatial distribution of <span class="inline-formula">Ψ_leaf</span> was mainly governed by the within-vineyard soil hydraulic conductivity heterogeneity (<span class="inline-formula"><i>R</i>²</span> up to 0.81) and was particularly marked when the evaporative demand and the soil water deficit increased, since the range of <span class="inline-formula">Ψ_leaf</span> was greater, up to 0.73 MPa, in these conditions. …”

Study on the crack propagation morphology and initiation law of coal rock under the action of underwater electric pulse by XianKai Bao, Bin Jiang, GuangQin Cui, XiaoFan Zhang, Tong Zhang, Wu Zhang

“…Abstract Based on the symmetric initiation mechanism of double-wing cracks in coal rock mass induced by high-pressure electro-recoil water pressure, fracturing experiments have been performed on coal rock mass under different water pressures and discharge conditions using high-voltage electric pulse hydraulic fracturing devices. Combined with CT scans, the crack spatial distribution inside the post-break coal rock mass was analyzed and found that the edge of the water injection hole is prone to produce double-wing cracks along the drilling hole diameter. …”

A Semianalytical Model for Analyzing the Infill Well-Caused Fracture Interference from Shale Gas Reservoirs by Sidong Fang, Yonghui Wu, Cheng Dai, Liqiang Ma, Hua Liu

“…The results show that the production of the parent well will be dramatically enhanced when it is connected with the infill well via high-conductive hydraulic fractures. Longer unconnected fractures and more fracturing stages/clusters for the infill well will result in higher production for the infill well, but a negative effect is observed for the parent well. …”
