tea leaves contain unsaturated fatty acids, key precursors of volatile compounds contributing to tea aroma quality. tea is cultivated in areas with diverse environmental conditions. nitrogenous fertilizers influence tea yields and quality. a previous single site study demonstrated that increasing nitrogenous fertilizer rates raised fatty acid levels. however it is not known if the magnitudes an...

In this study, nitrogen fertilizer was applied to corn (Zea mays L.) at conventional (excessive) and recommended levels, and the growth response was assessed by measuring plant height and stem perimeter. Corn plant maximum height was observed in recommended rates of N fertilizer treatment, and the height without N fertilizer was the same as that receiving excess N fertilizer. Stem perimeter was...

With advancing semiconductor technology, growing design complexities, companies have turned to a global design team to build their System on a Chip (SoC). The major challenge is the capacity to scale infrastructure and methodology, along with ASIC design[23]. Silicon Access Networks recently shipped for revenue from first silicon, a family of four high performance SoC products. These high-end n...

Most current web application use small objects to increase the data transfer speed between server and client. This leads to completion of the object transfer while the TCP is still in the initial slow-start phase, which starts with an initial window size. SCTP, a new transport layer protocol, uses congestion control mechanism that is similar to that of TCP but complements TCP’s deficiencies in ...

The road environment can affect driver speed choice through influencing both the driver’s perception of their current speed, and the speed that they think is appropriate for the road. These influences and their effects on speed can therefore affect crash rates. This report reviews the influence of various factors within the road environment, including the geometry of the road, the roadside envi...

A field experiment was conducted in 2010, to evaluate the effects of plant density (D1, D2 and D3: 8, 14 and 20 plant/m2) on field performance of Sorghum under different nitrogen application rates (N1, N2 and N3: application of 40, 80 and 120 kg/ha Nitrogen, respectively). The experiment was arranged as factorial based...
