Energy harvesting has a vital role in building reliable Environmental Wireless Sensor
Networks (EWSNs), without needing to replace a discharged battery. Solar energy is one of …

Data acquisition from multi-hop large-scale outdoor wireless sensor network (WSN)
deployments for environmental monitoring is full of challenges. This is because of the severe …

Rainfall runoff and leaching are the main driving forces that nitrogen, an important non‐point
source (NPS) pollutant, enters streams, lakes, and groundwater. Hydrological and transport …

We present an empirical study on network dynamics in an outdoor heterogeneous multi-hop
WSN deployment for long-term environmental monitoring. We analyze the network dynamics …

This paper proposes an integrated method for the estimation of soil moisture in potato crops
that uses a low-cost wireless sensor network (WSN). Soil moisture estimation maps were …
