“…These studies often involved energy balance, radiation and/or mass balance, such as the environmental modification caused by low perforated polyethylene tunnels in lettuce growth (Buriol et al, 1993a), the meteorological elements in a plastic greenhouse in Pelotas-RS (Camacho et al, 1995), the protected cultivation and microclimatic aspects (Sentelhas and Santos, 1995), the energy balance in pepper plants under protected and field cultivation (Cunha et al, 2001), the energy balance in the cucumber crop in a natural and protected environment , the radiation balance and heat flux in the soil in a natural and protected environment with cucumber cultivation , the estimation of the latent heat flux by the energy balance in pepper protected cultivation (Cunha et al, 2002), the micrometeorological alterations caused by the plastic greenhouse and its effects on the pepper crop growth and production (Cunha and Escobedo, 2003 ), the use of meshes and shading in a protected environment and on the growth and commercial production of Gerbera jamesonii (Guiselini et al, 2004a), the effect of the protected environment cultivated with melon on the meteorological elements and its relationship with external conditions (Vásquez et al, 2005), the microclimate of vineyards cultivated under plastic cover and full sun (Lulu e Pedro Júnior, 2006), the microclimatic characterization of coffee trees cultivated under shading mesh and in full sun (Morais et al, 2007), the study of microclimate simulations in greenhouses aiming at the acclimatization of micropropagated banana plantlets cv Grande Naine (Scaranari et al, 2008), micrometeorological changes in vineyards by using plastic covers (Cardoso et al, 2008), the management of solar radiation coverage of protected environments and its effects on gerbera production (Guiselini et al, 2010), models for estimating micrometeorological elements in a protected environment (Costa et al, 2011), the efficiency of heat-reflective and shading screens in a screen-like protected environment under high temperatures (Rampazzo et al, 2014), agricultural screens as an undercover in the cultivation of hydroponic lettuce (Sales et al, 2014), the use of thermoreflective screen in protected environments for tomato cultivation (Ferrari and Leal, 2015), solar radiation and air temperature in a protected environment (Rebouças et al, 2015) and the monitoring of micrometeorological variables in different protected environments in the winter period ( Paula et al, 2017).…”
