Abstract:

Fine roots (≤ 2 mm in diameter) account for up to 50% of total net primary production in forests, representing a major flow of both carbon and nutrients into the soil. We investigated the vertical distribution and production of fine roots in a warm temperate old-growth evergreen broadleaved forest in southwestern Japan. We used a continuous inflow method that considered different rates of diameter-dependent root mortality, decomposition, and thickening. Fine roots were classified into two classes (≤ 1 mm and 1–2 mm diameter). The experiment was conducted over a 1-year period to collect data on

Abstract:

Fine root lifespan has previously been estimated at 3 to 4 weeks for apple trees growing in England. We used nondestructive belowground imaging technology to investigate the accuracy of this estimate for apple trees growing in central Pennsylvania. Eight root observation tubes (minirhizotrons) were installed beneath each of six 20-year-old `Red Delicious' apple trees on M26 rootstock. Videos of roots growing against the tubes were taken at intervals of 14 to 28 days between October to June, depending on the amount of root activity. Images were used to construct a database of life history infor

Abstract:

Fine root production rates are most commonly calculated from periodic measurements of live and dead fine root biomass. The accuracy of production estimates based on this method is very sensitive to violations of the inherent assumptions, particularly the assumption that the processes of fine root production and mortality are temporally separate. A simple model was used to simulate data for a variety of seasonal patterns of live and dead fine root biomass. Fine root production and mortality rates were calculated from these simulated data using two different computational methods. Comparison of

Fine root maintenance respiration rates, estimated from rates of starch and sugar depletion in the seedlings maintained in darkness, ranged from 0.83 to 3.25 mg starch g dry weight−1 day−1. At 20 and 30 °C, starch deposition was curtailed and previously deposited starch was used to maintain the older roots, whether current photosyntha

Abstract:

Fine root production is the largest component of belowground production and plays substantial roles in the biogeochemical cycles of terrestrial ecosystems. The increasing availability of nitrogen (N) and phosphorus (P) due to human activities is expected to increase aboveground net primary production (ANNP), but the response of fine root production to N and P remains unclear. If roots respond to nutrients as ANNP, fine root production is anticipated to increase with increasing soil N and P. Here, by synthesizing data along the nutrient gradient from 410 natural habitats and from 469 N and/or P

Fine roots constitute a large part of the primary production in northern (arctic and boreal) ecosystems, and are key players in ecosystem fluxes of water, nutrients and carbon. Data on root dynamics are generally rare, especially so in northern ecosystems. However, those ecosystems undergo the most rapid climatic changes on the planet and a profound understanding of form, function and dynamics of roots in such ecosystems is essential.

Abstract:

In this chapter, Ober and Weingast find the roots of some of the most unusual features of Archaic/Classical-era Sparta in the “proportionality principle.” That principle holds that the stability of a regime in which ruling elites extract revenues from nonelites through violence (or its threat) requires that each elite receive a share of rents proportionate to his potential to employ disruptive violence. When proportionality is respected, no one with the power to disrupt society has an incentive to do so. This equilibrium situation helps explain the high degree of stability in Sparta’s sociopol

Abstract:

The patterns of production described in Chapter 11 tell only half of the story about boreal forest production because a large proportion of the carbon (C) acquired by plants is allocated belowground in ways that have traditionally been extremely difficult to quantify. Work in the Bonanza Creek LTER provides considerable insight into the patterns, causes, and consequences of this belowground C allocation. Belowground allocation has a number of important ecosystem consequences beyond the simple fact that C allocated belowground comes at the expense of aboveground growth. Belowground and aboveground tissues differ substantially in the rates of C and nitrogen (N) incorporation into new tissue, the ratio of growth to respiration, and the rate of tissue decay. For example, despite the small biomass of fine roots relative to aboveground tissues in forest ecosystems, disproportionate amounts of C and N cycle annually through fine roots, which grow, die, and decompose very rapidly and have high N concentrations (Hendrick and Pregitzer 1992, Ruess et al. 1996, 2003). The objectives of this chapter are to (1) summarize our understanding of the structure and function of fine-root systems in forest types within the Bonanza Creek Experimental Forest, (2) compare our findings with the results of studies of other boreal and temperate ecosystems in order to develop a broader understanding of fine-root function, and (3) identify critical research gaps in our understanding of the role of fine-root systems in boreal ecosystem function. Fine roots grow more rapidly than the rest of the root system in a forest and are responsible for the bulk of nutrient and water acquisition. Until recently, fine roots were defined rather arbitrarily as roots less than 1–2 mm in diameter, while roots larger than this were considered coarse roots. Only one data set for fine and coarse root biomass has been published for interior Alaskan forests (Ruess et al. 1996), which shows (1) live fine-root biomass ranging from 221 g m-2 in floodplain white spruce stands to 832 g m-2 in upland birch-aspen stands, (2) a positive correlation between fine-root and coarse-root biomass, with coarse-root biomass averaging 50% greater than fine roots, and (3) no relationship between aboveground biomass and fine or coarse root biomass.

Abstract:

Chicago emerged two decades after its Great Fire of 1871 to host America's second world's fair, and with it witnessed the birth of a Black cultural movement along with the city's general rebirth. First in the performing arts, then progressing slower in the visual and literary arts, the next four decades beheld the rise of the foundational elements of a Black Chicago Renaissance somewhat paralleling that in Harlem but in an asymmetrical fashion. While the tempo of aesthetic evolution through two distinct periods was imbalanced, overall progress appeared: with a transformation in the class structure, bringing necessary Black patronage to the forefront; an intelligentsia to spur interest and appreciation in the fine arts; and impressive, awe-inspiring creative production in painting, sculpture, photography and music.

Full text

Abstract:

The term “soil management” refers to the human manipulation of chemical, physical, and biological conditions of the soil for the production of agricultural plants. Good soil management helps maintain and improve soil fertility while sustaining optimum crop yield over time, whereas inappropriate soil management practices can lead to the degradation of soil fertility and a declining crop yield within a relatively short period of time. In a cropped field, where pests and disease are not limiting factors, the decline in crop yield over time may be attributed to several soil-related factors, namely, deterioration of soil physical conditions, such as surface crusting and subsurface compaction, depletion of available nutrients in the soil and soil acidification, soil moisture stress (drought or waterlogging), and the decline in soil organic matter and soil biological activity. Thus, major tasks of soil management for crop production include the following: • tillage and seedbed preparation • replenishment of soil nutrients • soil moisture management • maintenance of soil organic matter The main purposes of tillage are to loosen a compacted surface soil to facilitate seed emergence and root growth through improved soil aeration and water storage, and to eradicate weeds before planting and control subsequent weed growth during the cropping season. Common tillage practices used in tropical agriculture are as follows: • Slash-and-burn, followed by sowing seeds into holes made by punching a wooden stick into the porous surface soil. • Slash-and-burn, followed by heaping or ridging the compacted surface soil using a hand hoe. • Plowing, harrowing, and puddling in irrigated rice paddies using water buffalo or a two-wheel power-tiller. • Ridge tillage using a hand hoe, animal traction or an engine-powered tractor on crusted or compacted soils and poorly drained clayey soils. • Minimum or strip tillage with a crop-residue mulch on coarse-textured soils and on sloping land. • Conventional tillage involving plowing and harrowing on fine-textured soils and compacted soils on flatland. • Minimum tillage with a plant-residue mulch or cover crop in annual and tree crop mixed systems (agroforestry).

Abstract:

The term menu du jour (French) or menu del dia (Spanish) is sometimes used instead of the term table d’hôte menu. Another menu term used is carte du jour (literally ‘card of the day’), or ‘menu of the day’, which can also be a fixed meal with one or more courses for a set price. A prix fixe (fixed price) menu is similar. A ‘tasting menu’ (menu degustation) is a set meal with a range of courses (often between six and ten). These tasting menus are offered in restaurants where the chef provides a sample of the range of dishes available on the main menu. These tasting menus can also be offered with a flight (selection) of wines – a different wine for each course., with the chef coming to the customer’s table to explain the production of the dish. For all menus the price of the meal might also include wine or other drinks. In addition to menus for main meals, such as luncheon or dinner, there are also requirements for other types of menu such as all day menus, floor/room service menus, lounge service menus, hospital tray service menus, airline tray service menus and rail service menus and event menus.

Full text

Abstract:

Fresh cassava roots are transformed into shelf stable raw materials (flours and extracted starches). Chemical composition (moisture, protein, lipid, fibre and amylose content, cyanide contents), dry matter, starch extraction yields, particle size distribution and whiteness index are some of the quality characteristic requirements for selection of varieties in breeding programs, and raw materials for industrial processes. Starch yields ranges 20–35%, and vary with genotype. The crude protein (1–2%) and crude fat (∼1%) are considered minor components of cassava and are indicative of the poor nutritional quality. The cumulative of particles passing finer than sieve (D90) is commonly selected for industrial applications because it yields a large proportion of flour in the range 90–96% finer particle than sieve size. The amylose is the main genetic trait for categorising starches into waxy, semi-waxy, normal/regular and high amylose types when amylose content is 0–2, 3–15, 16–35, and > 35% of the total starch, respectively. Additionally, amylose is basic criteria for blending flours of different botanical sources. Cassava varieties are classified as sweet and bitter varieties when cyanide values are in the range 15–50 and 50–400 ppm, respectively. The a* (redness-greenness) and b* (yellowish) are considered as impurities in white fleshed cassava.

Abstract:

This book focuses on these changes through the creation, production, distribution, and consumption of a selection of television and Internet fiction, exploring the new mediascape that has taken root in Brazil since 2011. The objective is not to predict what that mediascape will be in the coming decades but to shed light on the emergence and the consequences of the post-2011 mediascape as a particular conjuncture. Ultimately, I argue that the ongoing transition from the nearly five-decade, TV Globo–dominated Network Era (1968–2011) to the increasingly competitive and fragmented post-2011 mediascape has given way to fundamental changes to the economic models, modes of production, producers, distribution windows, and consumption that have largely defined the Brazilian mediascape since the late 1960s. Such changes, I contend, also have major implications for the symbolic construction of the national social imaginary.

Experiments realized on representative benchmarks of a multi-robot application show the efficiency of the approach.

Experimental stamping dies are then designed to reflect various combinations of these five geometric param

Abstract:

Abstract Manufacturing companies must ensure high productivity and low production cost in rapidly changing market conditions. At the same time products and services are evolving permanently. In order to cope with those circumstances, manufacturers should apply the principles of smart manufacturing together with continuous processes improvement. Smart manufacturing is a concept where production is no longer highly labor-intensive and based only on flexible manufacturing systems, but production as a whole process should be monitored and controlled with sophisticated information technology, integ

Abstract:

Recent incidents on the Norwegian shelf showed that the inner steel structure of a flexible riser, the carcass, can experience extensive axial loading. These events resulted in carcass overload followed by a spin-out and tear-off at the carcass end, eventually followed by shutdown of production. The carcass axial tension capacity has previously not been considered a critical design issue for flexible pipes. The incidents resulted in an extensive program, initiated by Statoil, to find the root cause of the problem. Both analytical and computational efforts validated through extensive testing of

Abstract:

Abstract This paper presents the lessons learned from optimising the sand control and management strategies of an oil field (Field E) after multiple sanding events and well failures. It presents how the old sand control solution was selected, the failure root causes, and the remediation options considered. The new sand control method, and the performance of two re-drilled wells after two years of production are also presented. Field E is a sandstone field with oil and gas-cap gas at initial conditions, and was initially developed with 5 production wells, 2 water injection wells, and 2 gas inje

Abstract:

Abstract A fire development simulation model is described which provides estimates of the amount and temperature of the smoke layer produced, the evolution of toxic gases, and the amount of time available from the onset of fire for the safe departure of occupants. Its results can be used to determine the key features of the fire evolution and the corresponding danger to occupants. Studies of this type help to validate or deny the suggested fire scenario and witness statements. Mathematical modeling thus helps to discriminate between alternative fire scenarios by evaluating the consequences and

Abstract:

In late 2007 and early 2008, 2 1/4Cr1MoV heavy reactors fabrication has undergone some weld metal reheat cracking issues that became a serious situation as roughly 25 large vessels were affected. Strong efforts from the whole production chain were put in trying to isolate the root cause of the crack appearance and solve this particular matter. Many investigations were conducted by independent laboratories in the first months of 2008. In particular, a hot tensile Gleeble® test indicated a decrease in ductility in the critical temperature range of Intermediate Stress Relieving (ISR) treatment (6

Abstract:

This paper reports on an illustrative human rights impact assessment (HRIA) of the Italian wine supply chains of Systembolaget, the Swedish monopoly alcohol retailer. The HRIA aimed to evaluate the actual and potential human rights impacts at the production stage of the value chain in Italy, to identify their root causes, and to provide recommendations to relevant stakeholders concerning their prevention, mitigation and/or remediation. The assessment took just over a year and consisted of five phases of analysis using a methodology aligned with the UN Guiding Principles on Business and Human R
