Downscaling and Projection of Multi-CMIP5 Precipitation Using Machine Learning Methods in the Upper Han River Basin by Ren Xu, Nengcheng Chen, Yumin Chen, Zeqiang Chen

“…This study developed multiple machine learning (ML) downscaling models, based on a Bayesian model average (BMA), to downscale the precipitation simulation of 8 Coupled Model Intercomparison Project Phase 5 (CMIP5) models using model output statistics (MOS) for the years 1961–2005 in the upper Han River basin. A series of statistical metrics, including Pearson’s correlation coefficient (PCC), root mean squared error (RMSE), and relative bias (Rbias), were used for evaluation and comparative analyses. …”

Growth Traits and Yield Performance of Japonica Hybrid Rice Bred by the New Strategy in the Yangtze River Region of China by Yutiao Chen, Jiayu Song, Xiaofu Hong, Huaijie Zhang, Tiejun Hu, Guanglong Zhu

“…Despite the successful breeding of hybrid japonica rice by the new strategy (the female parent with a restorer line containing an appropriate proportion of indica rice genes) in China, it remains unclear whether these cultivars exhibit a similar yield performance with the traditional high-yield hybrid cultivars in the Yangtze River region. Therefore, two field experiments were conducted in Fenghua City and Yuyao City, China, during the two growing seasons in 2019 and 2020. …”

Zoning of infiltration areas using Schosinsky’s Soil Water Balance in La Balsa River Basin, Costa Rica by Ramirez-Granados Pablo

“…Thus, the aim of this study is to develop an example for how to use Schosinsky´s Soil Water Balance (SSWB) model ‐along with other variables‐as a more viable way to determine water infiltration zones at the basin level. Zones, in La Balsa River Basin (LBRB), were determined by overlaying information of basin slopes, existing land use, land cover and spatial distributed rainfall. …”
