The CERES-Wheat model was applied to simulate yields from 2005 to 2007 at Xiaotangshan of northern Beijing. Experiment datum required by CERESWheat model were all collected and checked. In addition, 1974-2004 climate records were taken and calculated as predictive weather scenario used for yield forecasting. The model calibration adopted simulation results of 2005 and which of the other two yea...

The refined empirical line (REL) approach was used to convert the Earth Observing 1 (EO-1) Advanced Land Imager (ALI) sensor digital number (dn) to surface spectral reflectance ( ). The dn-torelation was derived from a bright target of known reflectance in the image, and the modeled estimates of the image dn at . The mean absolute percent difference ( ) between retrieved from ALI using the REL ...

Reduction of the quantity and quality forage is one main restrictions on productivity livestock systems. Tropical legumes are most important crops to improve feeds and, thus, for providing products human consumption in arid regions. In order investigate shift cultivation date two from summer spring weather conditions, a factorial experiment randomized complete block design with three replicatio...

An alternative means by which to examine the importance of assimilates supply to flower and pod formation is to analyze the relationships of leaf area index (LAI), above-ground dry matter (ADM), leaf area duration (LAD) and crop growth rate (CGR) around flowering with flower number and pod/flower ratio. For this objective, an experiment was conducted at Agricultural Research Station of Gonbad, ...

Recent interventions have focused upon play dates as a means to improve friendships. However, no measures have been published which quantify play date quality. An important characteristic of play dates in this regard may be the amount of conflict. We present the development of such a measure. We compare maternal reports of play dates for 112 community subjects with 48 subjects referred for peer...

in order to evaluate the effects of cover crops on reduced weed biomass in hybrid sunflower an experiment was carried in the research stations, natural resources medicinal plants (samian_ardabile) with 3 replicates in 1390-1391. the first factor was considered three type of cover crops, winter rye, spring barley, winter wheat with 2 control treatment, second factor was mulch management at two l...

    Climate, as the average temperature or precipitation over a long period of time, is constantly fluctuating and changing. There is a complex relationship between climate change and human biological and cultural reactions (Weeks and Petrie, 2018). Increased dry conditions in the subtropics is one of the consequences of climate change that has been predicted by various models. While using th...

Measurement or estimation of leaf area is essential for understanding crop responses to experimental treatments. The objective of this study was to develop regression models for estimating leaf area of field-grown cotton (Gossypium hirsutum L.) from measurements of leaf dry weight (LDW), vegetative components (stems and leaves) dry weight (VDW) and plant height (PH). Three cotton cultivars (Del...
