bimetallic pt-v supported by gamma-alumina is used to observe the changes of nheptanewhen passed over this catalyst. the pt concentration was kept constant at0.1wt% while the concentration of the vanadium was 0.5wt%. the activity andselectivity of catalyst have been determined under conditions at 450-500 degreescentigrade and 15-30 attn. the experimental results show that the addition of second...

Tobacco is a salt-sensitive glycophyte crop species. In this work effect of silicone (Si) supplementation (1 mM as Na2SiO3) was studied in Nicotiana rustica L. cv. Basmas grown hydroponically in growth chamber under control, low (25 mM) and high (75 mM) NaCl concentration for two weeks. Dry matter production of leaves was depressed by salinity level as low as 25 mM and higher salt concentration...

Crop model simulates growth and yield of crop in field scale and can be used to provide useful field information for farmers, such as irrigation application dates and amount, fertilizer application dates and amount, the choose of crop variety. Researchers have used crop models for many years, but they have had limited success in packaging these complex models in a framework that make them easy ...

the bottom trawl selectivity parameters (22mm cod-end mesh size) were determined for saurida undosquamis , mullus barbatus , upeneus pori , and pagellus erythrinus along karatas coasts of turkey in northeastern mediterranean waters during fishing season for the year 2002-2003. the lengths at first capture (l 50 ) values for s. undosquamis , m. barbatus , u. pori and p. erythrinus were 12.57, 9....

Although a many studies concerning crop residue burning have been conducted, the influence of crop residue burning on local PM2.5 concentrations remains unclear. The number of crop residue burning spots was the highest in Heilongjiang province and we extracted crop residue burning spots for this region using MOD14A1 (Thermal Anomalies & Fire Daily L3 Global 1 km) data and national land cover da...

asymmetrically mixed matrix matrimid-mil-53 membranes with silicone cover layer were fabricated. for better understanding of membrane fabrication process, three main parameters of fabrication, matrimid concentration, silicone concentration and weight percentage of metal organic framework (mil-53) particles, were optimized by an experimental design method. cross-section sem images were used to s...

Weed control through crop rotation has mainly been studied in a nonspatial context. However, weed seeds are often spread beyond the crop field by a variety of vectors. For weed control to be successful, weed management should thus be evaluated at the landscape level. In this paper we assess how seed dispersal affects the interactions between crop rotation and landscape heterogeneity schemes wit...
