Ground-source heat pump (GSHP) systems can achieve a higher coefficient of performance than conventional airsource heat pump (ASHP) systems because the ground, which functions as the heat source or sink, is at a higher temperature in winter and lower in summer than the air temperature (Kavanaugh 1992; Kavanaugh et al 1997). In addition, there will likely be some mitigation against the effects o...

Pines (Pinus spp.) in Florida are subject to infection by a variety of root-infecting and root disease fungi (Barnard et al 1985; Barnard et al 1991). Among the least known and perhaps most poorly understood of these root-inhabiting fungi are members of the ascomycete genus Ophiostoma, with anamorphs belonging to the more commonly observed formgenus Leptographium. This highly complex and intern...

There are two fundamental barriers to making programming more appealing: cognitive challenges to overcoming the hard part, and affective challenges to overcoming the boring part. AgentCubes is a new 3D creativity to...
