Individually ventilated cages microclimate monitoring using photoacoustic spectroscopy
A multi-gas photoacoustic sensor was developed in order to monitor microclimatic parameters at ppm level from the atmosphere of individually ventilated cages housing mice. Ammonia, water vapour and carbon dioxide were measured on-line and in real-time during two weeks and 24 hours a day. The quality of bedding and the ventilation rate inside the cages has been monitored. The circadian activity ...
متن کاملPerformance of an Ultrasonic Ranging Sensor in Apple Tree Canopies
Electronic canopy characterization is an important issue in tree crop management. Ultrasonic and optical sensors are the most used for this purpose. The objective of this work was to assess the performance of an ultrasonic sensor under laboratory and field conditions in order to provide reliable estimations of distance measurements to apple tree canopies. To this purpose, a methodology has been...
متن کاملProject Title : Insect Responses to Induced Apple
Significant Findings: 1. Apple leaf quality deteriorates with the season. We confirmed in multiple seasons that L. subjuncta larval development is prolonged and pupal weight is decreased on apple foliage as the season progresses. These data indicate the apple leaves are a relatively good food material for Lacanobia larvae early in the season but deteriorate in quality later in the season. Simil...
متن کاملApple Tree Physiology – Implications for Orchard and Tree Management
INTERNATIONAL DWARF FRUIT TREE ASSOCIATION Apple yield and fruit quality are the end result of myriad cultural practices (e.g., pruning, thinning, spraying), environmental inputs (e.g., light, carbon dioxide, water, nutrient supply) and physiological processes (e.g., leaf area development, light interception, photosynthesis, respiration). All of them are truly essential contributors to fruit pr...
متن کاملExclusionary Contracts ∗
When do participants in a market have the incentive to enter into agreements that exclude potential entrants? This paper synthesizes, extends and illustrates the theory of exclusionary contracts. In a model of incumbent contracts with downstream buyers, a “Chicago benchmark”yields no incentive for exclusionary long term contracts. Departures from the benchmark in each of three directions yield ...
