The anamorphic fungus genus Periconia is worldwide in distribution and causes foliar disease on plants mostly in tropical and subtropical regions. This study presents the description and illustration of P. palmivora discovered on leaves of Phoenix dactylifera (Palmae/Arecaceae) from Terai forest region of Uttar Pradesh, India. The taxonomic determination was based on morphological characteristi...

The forecast process within an operational weather centre is based upon the analysis, diagnosis and prognosis of skilled meteorologists. To aid their efforts, the forecasters use a wide range of tools including weather satellites, radar, workstations, and numerical weather prediction (NWP) models. Tremendous gains in NWP performance over the past 2 decades has made this tool typically the most ...

The objective of this paper is to discuss concepts of landscape sustainability in the Phoenix metropolitan area. Phoenix is situated in the greater Salt River Valley of the lower Sonoran Desert in the southwest United States. In this paper I use the ecological frameworks of ecosystem services and resiliency as a metric for understanding landscape sustainability. An assessment of landscape susta...

Phoenix is a multi-agent planning system that fights simulated forest fires. In this paper we describe an experiment with Phoenix in which we uncover factors that affect the planner's behavior and test predictions about the planner's robustness against variations in some of these factors. We also introduct a technique – path analysis – for constructing and testing causal explanations of the pla...
