Effects of crop cover on temperature regime of an alfisol in the tropics
Effect of maize (Zea mays L.) and cowpea (Vigna unguiculata L. Walp) canopies on the thermal regime of an Alfisol was investigated in flat and ridged seedbeds. An interaction was observed between canopy characteristics and soil moisture availability that influenced the soil temperature. When the soi...
