Abstract:
... The role of an industry information storage and retrieval (ISR) system for published material is related to the total-information flow network. Suggestions are made for reorganization of literature and conferences to serve major user needs in groupings, form of presentation, and timing. Consolidation around natural cores of basic technology is recommended for internal efficiency and to facilitate ...

Abstract:
... Forest surveys based on permanent plots possess peculiarities unusual in other computer applications. The enormous amount of information (30,000 plots, 1,000,000 trees), must be checked, corrected. Relevant information must be selected from the data bank for statistical computations. Because information for decision-making changes, the computer programs must be flexible.This article explains how t ...

Abstract:
... Soil and crop management practices have been used for centuries in some parts of the world, but in the United States it was not until the 1930's that the public became concerned over the abuse of land. In response a series of emergency and long-range programs were initiated on the conservation and wise use of natural resources. Information generated by the publicly supported agricultural research ...

Abstract:
... We discuss seasonal variation in thermoregulatory behavior and its consequences on body temperature for 12 species of diurnal lizards in the southern Kalahari semidesert of Africa and also evaluate several methods of attempting to document thermoregulatory behavior using a descriptive data base. Lizards vary time of activity among seasons, which limits the variation in ambient conditions actually ...

Subject:
clods; databases; engineering; extensibility; poly(vinyl chloride); shrink-swell potential; shrinkage; soil formation; soil surveys
Abstract:
... The coefficient of linear extensibility (COLE) measures soil swelling of natural soil clods and was designed for use in soil genesis and characterization studies. In an attempt to quantify engineering ratings of shrink-swell potential and to enhance nonagricultural use of soil survey data COLE has been statistically related to arbitrary PVC values. However, the data used to calculate COLE can also ...

Triticum aestivum; Triticum turgidum subsp. durum; cultivars; databases; grain yield; irrigation; mathematical models; phenology; plant characteristics; soil; spring wheat; weather; winter wheat; yield forecasting
Abstract:
... This research was motivated by a need to predict crop yields on a large-area basis without benefit of direct measurement of plant characteristics. Mathematical models were developed that require only a modest amount of historical data for application on a real-time basis to geographical regions other than the one where the models were developed. The models, one for winter wheat (Triticum aestivum ...
