Management decisions grounded in ecological understanding are essential to the maintenance of a healthy urban forest. Decisions about where and what tree species to plant have both short and long-term consequences for the future function and resilience of city trees. Through the construction of a theoretical damage index, this study examines the legacy effects of a street tree planting program ...

Recently, tree planting has become popular under NAPA. For decades, many tree planting projects were implemented to reduce the vulnerability of ecosystems and societies. Despite all of these, tree-dependent livelihoods remain vulnerable, which leaves doubt on the benefit of tree planting to enhance the resilience of livelihoods to climatic shocks. This suggests that much can be learned from the...

in order to determine the relationship between the variables grain yield and biological yield and some important agronomic traits, and to find the direct and indirect effects of important agronomic traits on both grain and biological yields, 364 soybean genotypes (3 planting dates) were studied. the study was based on a design augmented with 3 checks and 6 blocks implemented, in seed and plant ...

This dissertation investigates the main research question: Which classification of innovation explains the heterogeneous timing of revenue realization? Given the significance of financial gain, researchers are recommended to pay attention to whether innovation outcomes result in commercial gains in the short term. Following this notion, a new category of innovation, planting and harvesting, is ...

This study aimed at the development of method of monitoring paddy rice planting applicable to areas located in the tropical humid climate region. The method was integrated with two steps of procedure. As the first step, we attempted to produce land use map which discriminated paddy field using multi-temporal Landsat data. In order to remove the effect of cloud cover, a new method of land use cl...

The importance of soil factors to the establishment of tree crops is well recognized by forest soil scientists and foresters. It has, however, been overlooked by far too many foresters responsible for major forestation projects. The soil factors found to be significant in the establishment of both planted stock and seedlings from natural or artificial seedf all are: texture and structure charac...
