Performance and techno-economic analysis of monocrystalline, multicrystalline and amorphous silicon-based stand-alone photovoltaic power system in Malaysian field conditions / Mohd...
Published 2005“…Thus it was proven that the a-Si modules worked best in an equatorial climate country. The costs of PV technology and energy generations from the Systems I, II and III were RM 11.7 per kWh, RM 6.4 per kWh and RM 6.2 per kWh respectively which are still high compared to that from the grid. …”

A comparative study on single and multiple trait selections of equatorial grown maize hybrids
Published 2023-06-01“…This study compares the effectiveness of the additive main effects and multiplicative interaction (AMMI) and multi-trait genotype-ideotype distance (MGIDI) models for identifying superior maize hybrids well-suited to the equatorial climate. Fifteen genotypes, including 13 hybrid candidates and two popular commercial varieties (BISI 2 and NASA 29), were analyzed in 10 distinct environments in Indonesia over three consecutive years (2018–2020). …”

Patterns and drivers of evapotranspiration in South American wetlands
Published 2023-10-01“…Here we assess the ET dynamics in 12 wetland complexes across South America, revealing major differences under temperate, tropical, and equatorial climates. While net radiation is a dominant driver of ET seasonality in most environments, flooding also contributes strongly to ET in tropical and equatorial wetlands, especially in meeting the evaporative demand. …”
