Trifluralin (a, a, a - trifluoro -2, 6 -dinitro-N, N-dipropyl-ptoluidine)
is effective in controlling downy brome (Bromus tectorum
L.) and wild oat (Avena fatua L.) but does not severely affect the
growth of wheat (Triticum aestivum L.). Studies were conducted
using germination chamber and greenhouse facilities to investigate
possible factors...
The use of the exponential-transfer-characteristics of a transistor
junction as a means of giving a logarithmic sweep calibration to a
sampling oscilloscope is presented. The prior work in logarithmic
converters leading up to the use of the transistor's transfer properties
is explored. A circuit adapting a sampling oscilloscope to a...
Foliar respiration forms a large component of the carbon balance of any coniferous forest. We examine seasonal, interannual, spatial and interspecific variation of foliar maintenance respiration in a forest in Washington, USA, with measurements made quarterly for >4 years on 400-year old trees of Pseudotsuga menziesii, Tsuga heterophylla and Thuja...
