The use of bromoxynil (3,5-dibromo-4-hydroxybenzonitrile)
to control broadleaf weeds in cereal crops has become widespread.
This herbicide has not always performed satisfactorily for reasons
which were not clearly evident.
The effects of temperature, light and humidity on the herbicidal
activity of bromoxynil on coast fiddleneck, Amsinckia intermedia,
were studied. Fiddleneck...
Several studies were conducted to determine if a more consistent
predictor of phytotoxicity to winter oats could be obtained with a
surfactant-herbicide ratio or a per-unit-volume concentration of surfactant,
independent of volume. The herbicides tested were 2,2-dichloropropionic acid (dalapon), 1,1'-dimethyl-4, 4'-bipyridinium
(paraquat), and 3-tert-butyl-5-chloro-6-methyluracil (terbacil) with
the nonionic surfactant X-77...
Herbicides were tested for the selective control of bentgrass in
Kentucky bluegrass turf under three levels of competition. Best control
in zero competition was obtained with a winter treatment of
bromacil at two pounds per acre. Under circumferential and direct
competition, best control was obtained with a summer and fall...
THE PROBLEM. The problem was to study the recreation resource-
user and to determine attitudes, characteristics and relationships
between selected variables common to these users.
PURPOSE OF THE STUDY. The purpose of the study was to
examine:
1) Who are the recreation resource-users of the Bend Ranger
District, Deschutes National...
The refractive index of particulate matter suspended in seawater
is nonuniform and potentially is an indicator of composition and
origin. A method is described for determining the refractive index
distribution. The method requires the measurement of the volume
scattering function and assumes the total size distribution to be
capable of...
