Abstract:

Agricultural environments are critical to the conservation of biota throughout the world. This is due both to the limited extent of current reserve systems and the large, and still expanding, proportion of terrestrial environments already dominated by agricultural land-uses. Consequently, there is a growing call from scientists around the world for the need to maximise the conservation value of agricultural environments. Efforts to identify key influences on the conservation status of fauna in agricultural landscapes have taken complementary approaches. Many studies have focussed on the role o

An accurate soil nitrogen (N) test is needed to improve corn production, profitability, and reduce environmental concerns of increasing nitrate (NO<sub>3</sub>) levels in groundwater.

Abstract:

This research assumes as a specific topic of analysis the peri-urban landscape, an environment manifesting many contradictions among the traditional forms of cities, their actual patterns, and the permanence of a rural ambient. Current theories on sustainability propose the definition of a limit to the urban growth. It seems like the hypothesis of sustainability explicates itself through the postulate of the “compact city”, with strategies of densification, infilling, or re-compactation of the urban margins. Opposite to this, a sustainable approach to urban design consider the indeterminacy in

Land is a critical element in the formation of, maintenance and continuance of Native identity to tribes in North America. Since time immemorial, Native people have occupied these landscapes in a manner than can perhaps be best described as "persistent." Native views of the land can differ significantly from those of a Western, or Anglo-American tradition. And when managers of these lands come from a Western tradition, dissimilar views on how these lands should be used can become very problematic for Native people.

In this work we investigate the dynamics of Bose-Einstein condensates (BECs) in inhomogeneous potential landscapes.

This thesis covers all of these areas. We begin by recapping the historical background of condensate physics, with a definition of the condensed phase and discussion of various analytical quantities of relevance to this work.

The slope units were found to be ranked in descending order by mean soil erodibility as follows: shoulder, midslope, footslope, summit, toeslope. This systematic pattern of erodibility was
