iran is widely drought prone, considering its semi-arid climate. eleven wheat cultivars differing in yield potential and drought resistance were employed to determine the possible relationship among grain filling rate and duration, stem reserves remobilization and grain yield under either irrigated (ir) or non-irrigated (nir) conditions at gerizeh research station in sanandaj for a duration of ...

in order to study the effect of temperature and photoperiod (pp) on development rate of different vegetative and reproductive stages of canola, an experiment was conducted at agricultural research station of gonbad during 2005-2007. the experiment was a randomized complete block design arranged in a split-plot in two conditions, for example supplemental irrigation and rainfed. there were differ...

The meteo-climatic datasets are at the basis of a great deal of studies on environmental state and its consequent management. In this frame, the completeness of meteo-climatic datasets is required for accurate and reliable analysis. Unfortunately, completeness is a rare in practice and, consequently, a preliminary treatment for filling in all gaps is needed. In this work, two intuitive and easy...

worth, perhaps we may say, in all. It is one of the most interesting features of the social framework of Britain, that while it recognises the distinctions of feudal rank, and records the exit of each worthy head of a time-honoured house, as in some sort the property of the nation, not the less through the various gradations of the scale does it appreciate the successful citizen, the independen...

Decay of the Kinetic and the Thermal Energy of Compressible Micropolar Fluids. We consider a heat conducting compressible micropolar fluid at rest and filling a closed stationary rigid container. We show that tim energy of arbitrary disturbances of the fluid eventually decays. Abnahme der kinetischcn und der thermischen Energie kompressibler mikropolarcr Fliissigkeiten. Betrachtet wird eine ruh...

In this paper we show how a fundamental result from information theory can be used to calculate the aggregate channel capacity in the uplink of an access point or a base station. The fundamental limits for this cell capacity provide an upper bound for any practically implementable multiple-access scheme. The capacity loss due to various implementation constraints is evaluated and a method for a...

abstract drought is one the most complicated and unknown natural disasters and rainfed agriculture is often the first sector to be affected by drought. in this research, we consider the drought monitoring from both meteorological and agricultural points of view. we have selected standardized precipitation index (spi) among the meteorological indices, with a one month time scale for the synoptic...
