Paratuberculosis or Johne’s disease (JD) prevalence in Australia is low at the cow-level with varying herd-level prevalence. Control strategies incorporating vaccination are limited, suggesting opportunities for changes regulatory oversight. In order to study this further, we examined economic benefits of participation JD control programmes and without as well knowledge, attitudes, practices (K...

The thesis introduces receiver algorithms improving the performance of TDMA mobile radio systems. Particularly, we consider receivers utilising side information, which can be obtained from the error control coding or by having a priori knowledge of interference sources. Iterative methods can be applied in the former case and interference suppression techniques in the latter. Convolutional codin...

BACKGROUND Efforts to educate producers and veterinarians in the United States regarding the management, prevention and control of Mycobacterium avium subspecies paratuberculosis (MAP) infection have increased over recent years. While nationwide awareness about MAP infection is improving, current level of awareness among beef producers and veterinarians is largely unknown. This study compares t...

Purpose The purpose of this paper is to explore the extent which Job Demands-Resources (JD-R) theory (Demerouti et al. , 2001; Bakker and Demerouti, 2017) an appropriate conceptual framework for understanding physical environment work. Design/methodology/approach A analysis multidisciplinary workplace literature was performed assess core propositions JD-R as they relate environment. Findings co...

Although the job demands-resources model (JD-R) is getting much attention in literature, there limited, if any, empirical research Indonesia. This study used JD-R to predict satisfaction Indonesia with a sample of 17,177 employees. Using data from 5 th wave Indonesian Family Life Survey, Exploratory factor analysis (EFA), confirmatory (CFA), and structural equation modeling (SEM) were performed...

Purpose Drawing on job demands-resources (JD-R) theory, this study aims to develop a model of how work engagement mediates the relationship between supervisor support and affective commitment, with religiosity moderating engagement. This further tests moderated-mediation exploring relationships support, religiosity, commitment within unique institutional context where religious values beliefs s...

The spatial heterogeneity of water uptake by fine roots under field conditions was analyzed in situ with miniature sap flow gauges in a mature beech-oak-spruce mixed stand. Sap flow rate (J), sap flow density (Jd), and root surface-area-specific flow rate (uptake rate, Js) were measured for eight to 10 small-diameter roots (3-4 mm) per species in the organic layer (superficial roots) and in the...
