Salt-affected soils, those on which plant growth is limited by an excess of salts, are of three types: (i) saline soils in which electrical conductivity is > 4 dSm 1; (ii) sodic soils in which the exchangeable sodium percentage (ESP) is > 15; and (iii) saline-sodic in which the electrical conductivity (EC) is > 4 dSm 1 and ESP is > 15. Salt-affected soils are most common in aridic moisture regi...

Nutrient depletion in soils adversely affects soil quality and reduces crop yield and consequently poses a potential threat to global food security and agricultural sustainability. With an emphasis on human-induced nutrient depletion, this paper described the causality among soil nutrient depletion, soil quality, crop production, socio-economic variables, and environmental condition. Then, glob...

歴史的な建造物や文化遺産から取得した3次元モデルは,現状を永久に保存できること,修復作業のガイド ラインに使用できることなど非常に有用性が高い.また,このような3次元モデルを用いた形状の比較や様々な 手法による分類などは考古学にとても有益であるとされている.大小 52 の塔からなるバイヨン寺院は,カンボ ジアアンコール遺跡群の代表的な寺院のひとつであり,塔の東西南北に尊顔が刻まれているというユニークな特 徴を有する.日本国政府アンコール遺跡救済チーム(JSA)の調査によると,尊顔は全部で 173 現存し,デーヴ ァ(男神),デヴァター(女神),アシュラ(悪魔)の3種類に分類できると言われている.また,多数の職人 で形成されたグループが複数存在し,同一のグループによって制作された尊顔は類似していると言われている. 本論文では,レーザレンジセンサを用いた計測により取得した尊顔の3次元形状...

Organic farming is a promising agricultural method with positive effects on the human ecological and social environment. Governments have taken over a major role in defining organic farming by creating legal standards. Many countries all over the world have estabChristian R.

position equates to better health—spans both time and place and is found for almost all diseases and many health risk behaviours. The near universality of this phenomenon has led to a search for more fundamental causes. Although differences in material resources and/or psychosocial attributes have been postulated, neither can satisfactorily explain the ubiquity of the socioeconomic–health gradi...

 This is the second case study report from the Ipsos MORI and Cambridge Centre for Housing and Planning Research work programme for the National Housing Federation. It is based on interviews with 15 housing associations over the period January and February 2014.  Overall, associations see themselves and their tenants as effectively managing the impacts of welfare reform, particularly the size...

Betriebliche Anwendungen unterstützen in Unternehmen deren Geschäftsprozesse und folglich auch deren Wertschöpfung und sind daher wichtige Artefakte. Häufig treten Situationen auf, in denen Anwendungen bewertet und mit weiteren Anwendungen verglichen werden müssen, bspw. bei Projekten zur Konsolidierung der Anwendungslandschaft oder bei der Einführung einer neuen Anwendung. Hinsichtlich einer B...
