ABSTRACT

In this study, a systematic review spanning the last 5 years (2019-2023) was conducted to explore both experimental and theoretical techniques utilized in examining wind dynamics within vegetative canopies. A comprehensive search was carried out across academic repositories ScienceDirect® and Google Scholar®, employing specific keywords pertaining to wind studies in agricultural contexts. The search scope was confined to the period between 2019 and 2023 to encompass the most recent advancements in the field. The findings obtained not only showcase the advancements made in this domain but also unveil unexplored avenues for future research. Additionally, the review highlights emerging techniques that are still in their nascent stages. Despite the significant progress witnessed over the past five years, there exists a need for sustained investigation into this topic, with potential expansions into alternative research perspectives proposed within this study. Further exploration into the influence of canopy porosity and varietal composition on the efficacy of windbreak structures remains crucial, given the continued relevance of windbreaks in mitigating wind-induced stresses in agricultural settings.
