“…In the European temperate continental zone (Dfb-Koppen climate classen), apart from the mountain and coastal regions, dew harvesting is unprofitable due to low efficiency, for example, 0.1 L/m 2 /day in the Netherlands (Jacobs et al, 2008), 0.15 L/m 2 /day in Sweden (Nilsson, 1996), and 0.1-0.4 mm in Poland (Galek et al, 2012;Muskała et al, 2015). Although dew water yield is limited and cannot exceed~1 mm/day (Beysens, 1995;Lekouch et al, 2010), it is strongly dependent on local conditions (Beysens, 2006;Galek et al, 2012;Rubio et al, 2008). In dry periods between precipitation, dew is of considerable significance for ecosystems (especially in vegetation period); on the other hand, it is also hazardous due to its contribution to rotting of various naturals and propagation of epidemics (Agam & Berliner, 2006;Chen et al, 2013).…”
