Vagueness is standardly opposed to precision. Just as gradable adjectives like ‘tall’ and a quantity modifier like ‘a lot’ are prototypical vague expressions, mathematical adjectives like ‘rectangular’, and measure phrases like ‘1.80 meter’ are prototypically precise. But what does it mean for these latter expressions to be precise? On first thought it just means that they are precise, because ...

the process of adaptation to cold is an important mechanism in wheat cultivars to tolerate cold stress. this work was aimed to calrify the relationship between vernalization requirement with cold tolerance by assessing physiological changes in cold susceptible spring and tolerant winter wheat (triticum aestivum, cvs. kohdasht and cheyyene, respectively) in environmentally controlled conditions,...

in most semiarid and arid areas, fresh water shortage compels managers to use low quality water sources with high salinity to irrigate turf and landscape. recent research has noticed that management of nitrogen fertilization can alleviate salinity effects on plants. this greenhouse sand culture experiment was conducted in order to investigate morphological and physiological responses to salinit...

Robert van Rooij presents an original framework dealing with the formalization of vague predicates. His solution is based on a non-classical entailment, which he calls tolerant entailment. The author thoroughly discusses the relation of his solution to the major approaches to vagueness (supervaluationism, contextualism, epistemic approaches, . . . ) and gives an analysis of higher order vaguene...
