A feedlot cannot retain its manure byproduct indefinitely.
Eventually some method of disposal must be used. A case study
approach to this problem confronting a cattle feeding operation
representative of those in the area was used to determine volume
relationship among different product forms in order to maximize
net revenue...
A free-air gravity anomaly map of the continental margin of
Peru between 12° and 18° S. Lat. shows a -110 to -220 mgl anomaly
associated with the Peru-Chile Trench, a -60 mgl anomaly over the
Pisco Basin on the continental shelf, and -120 mgl anomaly over the
Mollendo (or Arequipa)...
As the capital requirements for the modern dairy enterprise increase, the Oregon milk producer and his lender need more information concerning the profitability, solvency and liquidity of the enterprise on which to base their financial decisions. This research examines three areas where more information could be used to

Because fuels management is supported, funded, and implemented nationwide...
A recently developed statistical model for first-order scattered fields is used to predict
the normalized covariance function of an underwater acoustic signal backscattered by a
hypothetical school of fish. The fish school is configured as an oblate spheroid with the
individual fish Poisson distributed within the school.
Empirical covariance functions...
