Prediction of frost occurrence by estimating daily minimum temperature in semi-arid areas in Iran
ABSTRACT- Many fruits, vegetables and ornamental crops of tropical origin experience physiological damage when subjected to low temperatures. Protection of plants from the effects of lethally low temperatures is important in agriculture, especially in horticultural production of high value fruits and vegetables. The objective of this study was to develop a simple model to predict the daily mini...
متن کاملComplementing Farmers’ Genetic Knowledge: Farmer
Genetic conservation and improvement depends (among other things) on the action of local people (CBD, 1994). We know that farmers are extremely knowledgeable about their crops and that they continuously experiment with them and with new materials arriving from various sources (Richards, 1989). Certain farmers are locally recognised as having “expert” knowledge about agro-biodiversity. They are ...
متن کاملPoint of Minimum Temperature
A homogeneous convex centrosymmetric body with constant thermal properties is initially at temperature zero and its boundary is maintained at a temperature Tb > 0. Prove or disprove that at any time t > 0, the point of minimum temperature is the center. Also, prove or disprove that the isothermal surfaces are convex and centrosymmetric. Note that the convexity of the isothermal surfaces will im...
متن کاملTemperature Mapping Using Ultrasound Digital Images
Introduction: The success of hyperthermia depends on the accuracy of the temperature monitoring in the tumor and the surrounding normal tissue. In this study, the temperature changes were determined by computing the speckle displacement in the ultrasound digital images. Speckle tracking algorithm was used to compute the displacement. Materials and Methods: The experiment was perf...
متن کاملPesticide Use and Asthma in Alberta Grain Farmers
A study of the respiratory health of grain farmers in Alberta, Canada was carried out in March 2002. Two populations were identified: members, in 1983, of a province-wide farm organisation, and grain farmers registered with the provincial agriculture department. A telephone interview addressed pesticide use (using pre-circulated trade names), chronic disease and respiratory symptoms. Pesticide ...
