Fallow water retention and wheat growth as affected by tillage method and surface soil compaction

Creator:: Schillinger, William F.
Abstract:: No-tillage winter wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) grown in a wheat-fallow cropping system has consistently produced lower grain yields than conventionally tilled soils in the semiarid Pacific Northwest. A 2-year study was conducted in a long-term tillage trial at Moro, OR to determine factors responsible for differences in wheat growth and...

The effect of water injection at seeding in dry soil on the germination and growth of winter wheat (Triticum aestivum L.)

Creator:: Noori, Fariborz
Abstract:: Stand establishment plays a significant role in the development and yield of winter wheat (Triticum aestivum L.). Availability of soil moisture to the germinating seed is one of the most critical factors affecting stand establishment. Water injection is a method of applying supplemental moisture to the soil in direct contact...

Water relations and associated morphology of conditioned Douglas-fir and jack pine seedlings subjected to periods of drought stress

Creator:: McClain, K. M.
Abstract:: Significant post planting mortality of young conifer seedlings often occurs on drought prone sites because seedlings fail to either establish, or maintain favourable water relations. Survival is contingent upon growth which occurs when turgor pressure is above a threshold level. Since growth after planting is influenced by nursery cultural practices,...

Water relations in red and white clover seed crops

Creator:: Oliva, Ruben N.
Abstract:: Both red (Trifolium pratense L.) and white (Trifolium repens L.) clover seed yields can be highly variable and low in western Oregon. The objectives of this study were to: i) determine crop water requirements and supplemental irrigation timing, and ii) quantify the effects of soil and water status on inflorescence...

Impact of exotic Ponderosa pine (Pinus ponderosa Doug. ex Laws.) plantations on water resources in northwestern Patagonia, Argentina

Creator:: Licata, Julian A.
Abstract:: Exotic ponderosa pine (Pinus ponderosa Doug. ex Lawson) plantations are being planted within the natural distribution area of cordilleran cypress (Austrocedrus chilensis (D.Don) Pic. Ser. et Bizzarri) in Patagonia, Argentina. The productivity of these exotic plantations is much greater than that of native forests, suggesting greater water use. Before these...

Addressing Data Resolution in Precision Agriculture

Creator:: Kelley, Jason
Abstract:: Irrigated agriculture constitutes the greatest consumptive water use globally, so that irrigation efficiency measures are an important part of global efforts to best utilize this limited resource. However, greater irrigation efficiency must be achieved while simultaneously maintaining or increasing crop yields and farming profitability. Incremental water use decisions are made...

Height-related trends in structure and function of Douglas-fir foliage

Creator:: Woodruff, David R.
Abstract:: This dissertation investigated the impacts of tree height upon a range of physiological and structural characteristics of Douglas-fir foliage; relationships between structural and functional trends with height; and compensatory mechanisms that mitigate height-related growth constraints. Height-related trends in foliar physiological and anatomical characteristics were examined both within trees as well...
