Hazelnuts (Corylus avellana) produce a prolific growth in the base of the trunk and roots, known as suckers, which are often removed in order to promote the development of a single trunk tree. Sucker removal facilitates cultural practices and mechanized operations, such as weed management and harvest. Sucker presence can...

Wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) is one of the most important crops in the world supplying about 18.8 percent of the world's caloric energy supply and 20 percent of the world's protein. In the Pacific Northwest (PNW), over one million hectares of wheat are grown every year. Wheat production is typically...
Density estimation for marine mammal species is performed primarily using
visual distance sampling or capture-recapture. Minke whales in Hawaiian waters
are very difficult to sight; however, they produce a distinctive “boing” call, making
them ideal candidates for passive acoustic density estimation. We used an array of
14 bottom-mounted hydrophones, distributed...
conservation and ecology. Currently, the most widely used methods for obtaining such estimates involve either sighting
animals from transect lines or some form of capture-recapture on marked or uniquely identifiable individuals. However,
many species are difficult to sight, and cannot be easily marked or recaptured. Some of these species produce...
Remote autonomous ecological acoustic recorders (EARs) were deployed in deep waters at five locations around the island of Kauai and one in waters off Ni'ihau in the main Hawaiian island chain. The EARs were moored to the bottom at depths between 400 and 800 m. The data acquisition sampling rate...
This guide provides tree fruit growers with the latest information on pesticides and herbicides for fruit trees. People who grow apples, pears and cherries can learn application rates and recommendations for each stage of tree growth.
Published January 2020. A more recent revision exists. Facts and recommendations in this publication...
Loop quantum gravity is a theoretical framework which aims to quantize general relativity. One of the unique aspects of this theory is that it imposes a discrete structure on space-time. One toy model of loop quantum gravity is loop quantum cosmology, which maintains the idea of a discrete spatial structure...
Loop quantum gravity is a framework for quantizing general relativity which imposes a discrete structure on space. In exploring the structure of loop quantum gravity, researchers have investigated loop quantum cosmology, a toy model with reduced degrees of freedom while maintaining a discrete space. Polymer quantum mechanics is a framework...
Improved sensitive techniques were developed for the
determination of soluble proteins in grape, juice and wine.
These techniques which permitted direct sample analysis
without prior dialysis or concentration, were used for: 1)
characterization of heat unstable proteins, 2) evaluating
the effect of bentonite fining and ultrafiltration (UF) on
the soluble...
