A Canopy Penetration Model for Aerially Disseminated Insecticide Spray Released above Coniferous Forests.

Abstract

A simple mathematical simulation model has been developed to predict the penetration and vertical distribution of insecticide sprays through coniferous canopies. Input parameters for the model consist of forest characteristics and the wind profile through the canopy.
