Digital elevation models (DEM) can be used to derive a wealth of information about land surface morphology. When analyzed using GIS information about stream channels and watersheds it can determine the flow of water over the Earth’s surface...
Slickspots are soil inclusions with unique loamy soils that provide habitats for many endemic plants worldwide, including those within sagebrush steppe. Sagebrush-dominated communities are declining and require restoration, but restoration techniques...
Thailand experienced several epidemic waves of the highly pathogenic avian influenza (HPAI) H5N1 between 2004 and 2005. This study investigated the role of water in the landscape, which has not been previously assessed because of a lack of high...
In Tunisian semi-arid regions, where water is a rare commodity and the large dams cannot be
justified considering the very limited water contributions and the very high evapotranspiration,
innovative techniques of harvesting water have been adopted...
Technical efficiency among wheat farms in the Northern State of Sudan was estimated using a
stochastic frontier production function approach. Empirical findings show that technical inefficiency is
important in explaining the variations in yield among...
Seed yield is an important factor to any farmer. Most farmers recognize that yield will vary within a field due to many factors, but they are unaware of the actual magnitude of the yield variability. Yield mapping is a technique whereby the actual...
Wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) flour represents one of the primary sources of calories and proteins for the human diet.
The increase in the wheat yield without losing its baking and milling quality is an important breeding objective. The
use of QTL...
