A series of studies during six years examined vegetative growth and fruit yield of the 'Olympus' strawberry when grown with black polyethylene mulch and drip irrigation. In some studies, plants were grown with or without mulch and irrigated at low, medium, or high levels for one or two months in...
The effect of scale is an important concern in mapping of biodiversity. Scale issues include the grid cell size used for analysis and the effect of the extent and internal boundaries. Because biodiversity analysis involves combinatorial processes, determining the proper scale is data dependent and cannot be predicted from the...
A sustainable resource development plan framework was prepared for the
Neskonlith Indian Band, who are located in the interior of British Columbia, Canada.
The framework intends to address issues involving; integrated resource management,
traditional native land management, ecosystem management, and community-based
resource management.
A soft systems (Wilson & Morren, 1990)...
Fire-history reconstructions are based on tree-ring records that span the last few centuries and charcoal data
from lake-sediment cores that extend back several thousand years. The two approaches have unique strengths and
weaknesses in their ability to depict past fire events and fire regimes, and most comparisons of these datasets...
The scheduled February 1985 launch of a radar altimeter aboard the U.S. Navy satellite Geosat has
motivated an in-depth investigation of wind speed retrieval from satellite altimeters. The accuracy of sea
surface wind speed estimated by the Seasat altimeter is examined by comparison with wind speed
estimated by the Seasat...
A topic of recurring interest in ecological research is the degree to which
vegetation structure influences the distribution and abundance of species. Here we test the
applicability of remote sensing, particularly novel use of waveform lidar measurements, for
quantifying the habitat heterogeneity of a contiguous northern hardwoods forest in the...
Many studies have shown that dairies consistently overfeed nutrients such as phosphorus (P) and potassium (K). This practice is expensive and potentially damaging to the environment and to animal health. This publication suggests ways to improve feed management and thus avoid overfeeding P and K. Proper ration balancing is good...
