—The longest river in North America, the Missouri, trends southeast from Montana across the mid continent of the United States, 3,768 km to its confluence with the Mississippi River near St. Louis, Missouri. Frequent flooding, a shifting, braided channel, and high turbidity characterized the precontrol “Big Muddy.” Major alterations occurred over the past century primarily for flood protection,...

Aflatoxins are secondary metabolites produced by Aspergillus flavus, A. parasiticus, A. tamari, A. bombycis and A. nomius species. Relative humidity (RH) is one of the most important parameters influencing the development of aflatoxins in pistachio orchards by Aspergillus species. The type of irrigation system affects density and frequency of the Aspergillus species in the soil. In the current ...

Remote sensing has the potential to provide estimates of important inputs for the land process models, for instance the land cover type, the soil moisture and the LAI. Such models can provide information that is crucial for a number of applications such as flood and drought prediction, crop irrigation scheduling, and meteorology. Also, land cover maps provide fundamental information to many asp...

Water conservancy projects have the functions of flood control, power generation, water supply, and irrigation, play a vital role in survival development human society [...]

Detailed information on the root system under drip irrigation will help in more efficient scheduling. Although input of previous crop residues is effective increasing soil fertility, little known about its effect system. This study aimed to investigate effects methods (drip or flood) and different management morphological characteristics distribution physiological functions rice cultivar ‘Hinoh...
