Effects of weather conditions, light conditions, and road lighting on vehicle speed
Light conditions are known to affect the number of vehicle accidents and fatalities but the relationship between light conditions and vehicle speed is not fully understood. This study examined whether vehicle speed on roads is higher in daylight and under road lighting than in darkness, and determined the combined effects of light conditions, posted speed limit and weather conditions on driving...
متن کاملResponses of soybean yield and yield components to light enrichment and planting density
Light intensity intercepted by the soybean canopy during the reproductive period is an important environmental factor determining soybean yield components and grain yield. A 2-year field experiment was conducted to investigate the effects of light enrichment and its interaction with planting density on yield formation of soybean cultivars. Light enrichment increased seed yield per plant and yie...
متن کاملWeather Conditions, Weather Information and Car Crashes
Road traffic safety is the result of a complex interaction of factors, and causes behind road vehicle crashes require different measures to reduce their impacts. This study assesses how strongly the variation in daily winter crash rates associates with weather conditions in Finland. This is done by illustrating trends and spatiotemporal variation in the crash rates, by showing how a GIS applica...
متن کاملAdverse Weather and Commuting Speed
This paper investigates the welfare effect of travelling through congested areas and adverse weather through changes in the speed of individuals’ car trips based on the entire commuting trip. Weather measurements are local and time specific (hourly basis). As most commuters travel twice a day between home and work, we are able to employ panel data techniques, which deals with issues related to ...
متن کاملRelation of Weather Conditions to Onion Blast.
During the recenit period ineluding the years of 1925 to 1940 there have been seven years in which the crops from onion seed suffered a serious leaf injury resulting in low yields. The disease is apparently physiological, for there has not been a single instance in either past or recent investigations that showed the presence of a pathogen when the plants exhibited the first signs of injury. Th...
