Field experiments were conducted in 1981 and 1982 to
develop a method for using remotely measured leaf canopy-air
temperature differences (stress-degree-days (SDD)) to
schedule irrigations and to evaluate the effects of
differential irrigation on snap bean cultivars, 'Oregon
1604' and 'Galamor'. Effects on soil water potential
(SWP), leaf water potential...
This manual provides guidance on creating subject heading proposals for Indigenous topics that can be submitted to the Subject Authority Cooperative Program (SACO) for addition to the Library of Congress Subject Headings.
An exact integral solution for the moisture profile in growing fingers in sandy soil is derived from Richards' equation. The solution provides moisture content along a finger as a function of position and time and provides applicable results, including the calculation of the asymptotic matric potential of a growing finger...
This thesis examines a range of generic influences in William Shakespeare's Richard II. By exploring the play's references to conflicting interpretations of history from different generic perspectives, I hope to advance a more nuanced reading of the play's dynamic staging of history. In Chapter One, I suggest that Richard II...
