Savanna Tree Seedlings are Physiologically Tolerant to Nighttime Freeze Events
Freeze events can be important disturbances in savanna ecosystems, yet the interactive effect of freezing with other environmental drivers on plant functioning is unknown. Here, we investigated physiological responses of South African tree seedlings to interactions of water availability and freezing temperatures. We grew widely distributed South African tree species (Colophospermum mopane, Comb...
متن کاملdevelopment and implementation of an optimized control strategy for induction machine in an electric vehicle
in the area of automotive engineering there is a tendency to more electrification of power train. in this work control of an induction machine for the application of electric vehicle is investigated. through the changing operating point of the machine, adapting the rotor magnetization current seems to be useful to increase the machines efficiency. in the literature there are many approaches wh...
15 صفحه اولAn investigation on the effect of shape and size of pits on early establishment of wild pistachio (Pistacia vera L) seedlings in Khajeh Kalat woodland
The aim of this study was to find the most efficient methods for restoring wild pistachio forests through direct seeding and by seedling planting in the woodlands of Khajeh Kalat in Khorasan Razavi. Two planting methods and two pit shapes and four pit sizes were tested. Basin pit sizes were (control, 20, 50, and 100 cm but curve shaped pits were at (control, planting seedlings at ground level),...
متن کاملLong-term Growth and Persistence of Blue Oak (quercus Douglasii) Seedlings in a California Oak Savanna
We report on growth and survivorship of two cohorts of blue oaks Quercus douglasii Hook. & Arn. (Fagaceae) monitored at Hastings Reservation in Monterey County, California, the first growing in an unprotected old field and measured as seedlings in 1965 and the second planted as acorns in 1985 in several sites differing in their degree of protection from grazing. Growth of all individuals was ex...
متن کاملHerbivory on Acacia seedlings in an East African savanna
Trees critically affect the functioning of savanna ecosystems through their effects on nutrient cycling, water availability, and patterns of space use by wildlife. Therefore, whatever factors influence successful recruitment of tree seedlings are important filters controlling savanna ecosystem function. In African savannas, large mammals have been considered the most important agents of mortali...
