olive is a perennial evergreen tree which has good adaptability to poor environmental conditions such as salt and drought resistance. in recent years, there is a tendency to plant olive trees in green spaces. therefore, this study was carried out to evaluate 15 olive cultivars regarding growth habit, form, and texture to recommend for landscape. six-year-old trees of 15 olive cultivars, which h...

Mensuration of tree growth habits is of considerable importance for understanding forest ecosystem processes and forest biophysical responses to climate changes. However, the complexity of tree crown morphology that is typically formed after many years of growth tends to render it a non-trivial task, even for the state-of-the-art 3D forest mapping technology-light detection and ranging (LiDAR)....

This paper applies Dynamic Syntax (Kempson et al., 2001) to dialogue modelling, and provides a characterisation of production that is relative to a converse process of tree growth which constitutes a parse check. As evidence for this approach, we place it in a psycho-linguistic perspective, using it to model (i) the parsing/production of elliptical expressions, (ii) dialogue properties such as ...

a principal obstacle facing intensive pear orchard establishment in iran is the absence of appropriate dwarfing or semi-dwarfing rootstocks, compatible with commercial cultivars, as well as showing adaptability with alkaline soils. this research aimed at an evaluation of the hawthorn seedlings (crataegus sp.) as a potential dwarfing rootstock for pear and a comparison of its dwarfing effects wi...

The tree shape robot is mainly applied at the exhibition or performance. In order to take the eyes of the spectator, the moving function, reproducing the fast growth process of tree, is important function of the tree shape robot. This paper proposed the mechanism to reproduce growth process of tree shape robot which is used at the exhibition or performance. Proposed mechanism for growth process...
