OBJECTIVES

 To estimate the noise and denoise satellite imagery


using image processing techniques.

 To retrieve RS Parameters from the satellite imagery.


 To design a regression model to estimate crop yield
using these derived RS parameters and Meteorological

Impact of atmospheric
elevated carbon dioxide
on growth and yield of
major rainfed crops
Objectives
 Assessing the impact of enhanced levels of CO2 (550ppm
& 700ppm), on the performance of major rainfed crops.

 Conducting detailed experiment on two popular


groundnut genotypes (Dharani, K-9) to quantify the
performance and responsiveness at elevated CO2 level of
550ppm .
Response of TBM (g/pl) to three CO2 levels at different growth stages
Response of yield
parameters (Maize) to
three CO2 levels

• Maize and Blackgram


responded well at 550ppm
Conclusions
TheConvective cloud parameter are extracted from
DWR and compared with the Satellite data.
The accuracy of the precipitation measurement was
improved with the help of proposed hybrid algorithm
(Cloud growth technique and spatial gradient
technique).
The track of the cyclone was improved with the help
of WRF model and compared with the IMD data.
Thenoise in the satellite images are reduced using
DTCWT which enhances the crop yield estimation.
The results are validated with the ground truth data.
The impact of elevated CO2 on yield parameters was
high at 550ppm than at 700ppm in all the crops.
