newa.cornell.edu Data collected precipitation temperature leaf wetness relative humidity solar radiation wind speed wind direction NEWA – weather app’s for IPM NYS IPM Program’s Network for Environment & Weather Applications In collaboration with the Northeast Regional Climate Center and RainWise, Inc Links to National Weather Service products NOAA’s drought information NY NASS weather stats • Web-based weather station data. • Weather summaries & degree days. • IPM forecast models and crop models. .
New website • Easier navigation • Header menu and footer on all web pages • Launched Nov 2009
RainWise weather stations • Internet router device • real time data • sent directly to NRCC database • online dashboard • Cornell ftp software upgrade • data QC • export feature
NEWA network expansion • 6 in VT • UVM & VT TF Growers Assoc. • >10 in MA • UMass Extension • >4 in New England • Eco-orchard project • 9 in Seneca County • Natural Resources Conservation Service
Data • Gridded forecast data • being used in models • Quality control • sister stations • auto-messages • Fuzzy logic model • Leaf wetness estimation
Potato & tomato LB DSS • Late blight decision support system • Interactive simulation built by Bill Fry We now link to the late blight simulation created by William Fry, the Late Blight Decision Support System (DSS)
Apple disease models Interactive, mini-expert systems with 5-day forecasts. • Apple Scab • Ascospore maturity • Infection events • Events log • Fire Blight • Infection risk (Cougar blight) • Strep spray & shoot blight utilities • Sooty blotch/flyspeck • Infection risk
Apple insect models Interactive, mini-expert systems. • Codling moth • Oriental fruit moth • Obliquebandedleafroller • Plum curculio • Spotted tentiformleafminer • Apple maggot Apple models are being woven into a tree fruit IPM website with pesticide selection tool & guidelines.
Grape models Interactive, mini-expert systems with 5-day forecasts. • Grape Berry Moth – launched 5/10 • DMcast (downy mildew) – launched 4/10 • Grape Diseases – revision in the works • Current page will become an Event Log • Powdery mildew primary infection • Phomopsis cane and leaf spot • Black rot
Crop production models • Apple physiology • Apple evapotransporation • (not yet live) • Apple carbohydrate model • for thinning (not automated) • Biggest single value and reason I invested in a weather station is the carbohydrate model produced by Dr. Terence Robinson for apple. Has a major impact on the total crop value. Best information of any kind anywhere in the world for apples!!!
Future NEWA projects newa.cornell.edu • Grants submitted. • Vegetable model upgrades • PMEP & Cornell Guidelines • Vegetable IPM website • Invasive monitoring alert system • …that I know of!
