Immerzeel, W.W.Gaur, AnjuZwart, Sander J.[Integrating remote sensing and a process-based hydrological model to evaluate water use and productivity in a south Indian catchment]Integrating remote sensing and a process-based hydrological model to evaluate water use and productivity in a south Indian catchment

Water availability and high soil fertility make inland valley landscapes suitable for sustainable rice-based cropping. In this study, Random Forests statistical analysis was used on a database of 499 surveyed inland valleys in four study zones in three West African countries. The goal of the stud...


Djagba, J.F.Sintondji, L.O.MaléKouyaté, A.Baggie, I.Agbahungba, G.Hamadoun, A.Zwart, Sander J.[Predictors determining the potential of inland valleys for rice production development in West Africa]Predictors determining the potential of inland valleys for rice production development in West Africa

Mangrove swamp rice cultivation is important for food security in some countries of West Africa including Sierra Leone. In this agro-ecology, rice is cultivated during the rainy season when freshwater flows in the rivers and salt and acidity concentrations have reduced to non-toxic levels. Rice y...


Baggiea, I.Sumah, F.Zwart, Sander J.Sawyerr, P.Bandabla, T.Kamaraa, C.S.[Characterization of the mangrove swamp rice soils along the Great Scarcies River in Sierra Leone using principal component analysis]Characterization of the mangrove swamp rice soils along the Great Scarcies River in Sierra Leone using principal component analysis

Rice spikelets become sterile when exposed to high temperatures during flowering. Recent experimental studies have shown that transpirational cooling and flowering time (within the day) are important factors determining sterility. Extrapolation of the results from these experimental studies to ot...


Oort, Pepijn A.J. vanSaito, KazukiZwart, Sander J.Shrestha, S.[A simple model for simulating heat induced sterility in rice as a function of flowering time and transpirational cooling]A simple model for simulating heat induced sterility in rice as a function of flowering time and transpirational cooling

Agricultural land suitability analysis (ALSA) for crop production is one of the key tools for ensuring sustainable agriculture and for attaining the current global food security goal in line with the Sustainability Development Goals (SDGs) of United Nations. Although some review studies addressed...


Akpoti, K.Kabo-bah, A.T.Zwart, Sander J.[Agricultural land suitability analysis: state-of-the-art and outlooks for integration of climate change analysis]Agricultural land suitability analysis: state-of-the-art and outlooks for integration of climate change analysis

Water management techniques to elevate rice yields and productive use of water resources in Africa, frequently lack a substantial spatial assessment as they are often based on plot level measurements without taking into account toposequential effects present in the landscape. These effects have b...


Schmitter, Petra S.Zwart, Sander J.Danvi, A.Gbaguidi, F.[Contributions of lateral flow and groundwater to the spatio-temporal variation of irrigated rice yields and water productivity in a West-African inland valley]Contributions of lateral flow and groundwater to the spatio-temporal variation of irrigated rice yields and water productivity in a West-African inland valley

The dataset described in this data article represents four agricultural zones in West-Africa that are located in three countries: Benin, Mali and Sierra Leone. The dataset was created through a research collaboration between the Africa Rice Center (AfricaRice), Sierra Leone Agricultural Research ...


Djagba, J.F.Kouyate, A.M.Baggie, I.Zwart, Sander J.[A geospatial dataset of inland valleys in four zones in Benin, Sierra Leone and Mali]A geospatial dataset of inland valleys in four zones in Benin, Sierra Leone and Mali

Inland valleys (IVs) in Africa are important landscapes for rice cultivation and are targeted by national governments to attain self-sufficiency. Yet, there is limited information on the spatial distribution of IVs suitability at the national scale. In the present study, we developed an ensemble ...


Akpoti, K.Kabo-bah, A.T.Dossou-Yovo, E.R.Groen, T.A.Zwart, Sander J.[Mapping suitability for rice production in inland valley landscapes in Benin and Togo using environmental niche modeling]Mapping suitability for rice production in inland valley landscapes in Benin and Togo using environmental niche modeling
