Toward the goal of predicting area-averaged evapotranspiration, the evaporative fraction is modelled in terms of surface radiation temperature, air temperature, solar zenith angle, Normalized Difference of the Vegetation Index and albedo. Previous relationships break down when applied simultaneously to a variety of surfaces. The zenith angle is required to account...
Improved recovery of cryopreserved meristems and calli from in
vitro currant (Ribes aureum Pursh and R. ciliatum Humb. & Bonpl.) plants
was obtained by two-hour pretreatment with sucrose, proline, abscisic
acid-responsive protein (RABP), and bovine serum albumin (BSA)
solutions. Meristems and calli cold-acclimatized for one week were
immersed in pretreatment...
This thesis research is a series of five studies dealing
with various aspects of hazelnut quality:
1. Identification of kernel mold and its incidence among
hazelnut varieties.
2. Seasonal development and composition of kernels.
3. Hazelnut oil composition (fatty acids and
tocopherols) of seventeen varieties.
4. Hazelnut oil composition compared...
The principal aim of this study was the use and evaluation of dynamic
modeling techniques to identify mathematical models for cereal drying rates and
quality changes that best describe thin-layer malt drying data. Seven thin-layer
malt drying experiments were performed at the Great Western Malting pilot
facilities, Vancouver, WA. Malt...
