The Mammoth Cave Historical GIS (MCHGIS) fosters new understandings of a national park landscape as a historic farming community and offers a web-based platform for public memory of pre-park inhabitants. It maps the 1920 manuscript census at the household level over a streaming topographic map and georeferences Civilian Conservation Corps photographs of dwellings for visualization and analysis ...

One of the major goals of the Sustainable Agriculture Farming initiatives at UC Davis is to provide information about the feasibility of adopting conservation tillage and cover cropping at the farm level. The project includes two tillage schemes: standard tillage (ST) and conservation tillage (CT), and three farming methods: conventional, organic, and winter legume cover crop. All three product...

the sustainability of farming system (sofs) is considered to be an important principle in a broad concept of sustainable agriculture. variables affecting sofs include alternate crop farming (using nitrogen-fixing plants as alternate crops), utilizing farm animal manure, using plants and crop residues back into the soil system, and utilizing a variety of protective plowing schemes. overuse and p...

This paper presents work on retrofitting of high-tech systems (HTS) in land-based aquaculture system for improving production efficiency. The objective is to develop architecture for an automated system for aquaculture farming. We call this development an automated expert system architecture (AESA). The article has been organized into four parts. First, it reviews the background and business op...

We examine the robustness of critical infrastructure networks in the face of terrorist attack, using a simulation experiment that incorporates link capacity; and an extension of data farming which we call network farming. Our results show that symmetrical designed networks generally outperform randomly generated networks, although ring-like structures are very vulnerable. Under targeted attacks...
