Effect of Dwarfing Induced by Uniconazole-P on Snow Tolerance of the Faba Bean (Vicia faba L.)
Plant Production Science, 2001 To clarify the effect of artificial dwarfing induced by uniconazole-P, a gibberellin biosynthesis inhibitor, on the snow tolerance of faba bean, we examined the snow damage, non-structural carbohydrate (NSC) concentration, and resistance to snow molds of

OENO One, 2000 The sensitivity of the vine to cold temperatures makes it a high risk crop in Québec. Winter colds during January and February can reach through the course of several days - 30° C and consequently the intense cold can damage the buds.

Uncertainties in classification system conversion and an analysis of inconsistencies in global land cover products [PDF]
, 2017 In this study, using the common classification systems of IGBP-17, IGBP-9, IPCC-5 and TC (vegetation, wetlands and others only), we studied spatial and areal inconsistencies in the three most recent multi-resource land cover products in a complex ...

Les impacts hydrologiques de la production de neige dans un domaine de moyenne montagne
VertigO, 2016 Artificial snowmaking is a relatively recent practice in Europe and in North America. This activity is necessary for the ski resorts to maintain and develop economic activities. However snowmaking requires large quantities of water, which are pumped from

Increase of Snow Compaction Density by Repeated Artificial Snow Consolidation Formation
Journal of the Institute of Industrial Applications Engineers, 2020 A method to consolidate huge amounts of snow into large ice pieces has been investigated based on science viewpoints for supporting the maintenance of road infrastructure in winter [1]. This study investigated repeated artificial snow consolidation formation for increasing snow compaction density. Producing compacted snow having density exceeding ρ = 0.

Suitability of ground-based SfM-MVS for monitoring glacial and periglacial processes [PDF]
, 2016 Photo-based surface reconstruction is rapidly emerging as an alternative survey technique to lidar (light detection and ranging) in many fields of geoscience fostered by the recent development of computer vision algorithms such as structure from motion ...
