Monitoring of non-structural elements is not usually implemented, despite the seismic vulnerability of these components and the significant cost associated with their replacement in case of damage. By exploiting the limited cost of commercial sensors, ac...

A decreased nitrogen (N) rate with increased planting density (DNID) is recommended as a feasible method to maintain rice grain yield and N-utilization efficiency. However, it is still unclear whether DNID could improve grain quality, particularly the ed...
