Optimal diameter growth equations for 60 major tree species werefit using the potential relat ive increment (PRI) methodology. Almost 175,000 individualsfrom the Midsouth (Arkansas , Louis iana, Missouri, Oklahoma, and Texas) were selectedfrom the USDA Forest Service’s Eastwide Forest Inventory Database (EFIDB). These records were then reduced to the individualsgrowing at thefastest rategiven t...

OBJECTIVES To determine whether longer periods of stent balloon inflation result in greater minimal luminal diameter (MLD) as measured by quantitative coronary analysis (QCA), and to determine whether measured size correlated with that predicted by pressure-diameter nomograms. METHODS Seventy-four stents were implanted in 52 patients. Stent acquisitions at a steady inflation pressure were tak...

Introduction: Foetal spinal cord has been the focus of interest by many scientists but the information regarding lumbar enlargement received very little attention, though important for clinical applications. Morphological studies were limited to vertebral canal and spinal cord during prenatal and postnatal periods . Readings of maximum transverse diameter of lumbar enlargement of foetal spinal ...

to investigate effect of calcium and growth medium on lilium (asiatic hybrid lilium bulbs “tresor” cultivar) and nutrients uptake, a factorial experiment based on completely randomized design was conducted by three levels of calcium in nutrient solution (2, 4 and 6 mm*) and five growth media (100% perlite, 70% perlite + 30% cocopeat, 50% perlite + 50% cocopeat, 30% perlite + 70% cocopeat, 100% ...

Abstract Determining forest volume increment, the potential of wood production in natural forests, is a complex issue but fundamental importance to sustainable management. increment through growth and yield models necessary for proper management future prediction characteristics (diameter, height, volume, etc.). Various methods have been used determine productive capacity amount acceptable harv...
