Crop Load Management in Nashi Pear—A Review

Horticulturae, 2022
Most nashi cultivars require heavy thinning, and this has traditionally been performed by the time and labour-intensive practice of hand thinning. Crop load management is a key cost driver for nashi production, but there are limited cost-effective ...

Alfvén waves in the near-PSBL lobe: Cluster observations [PDF]

, 2006
Electromagnetic low-frequency waves in the magnetotail lobe close to the PSBL (Plasma Sheet Boundary Layer) are studied using the Cluster spacecraft.

Quantifying clustering in disordered carbon thin films

Thin Solid Films, 2006
The quantification of disorder and the effects of clustering in the sp2 phase of amorphous carbon thin films are discussed. The sp2 phase is described in terms of disordered nanometer sized conductive sp2 clusters embedded in a less conductive sp3 matrix.

Cluster observations on the thin current sheet in the magnetotail [PDF]

Annales Geophysicae, 2008
Abstract. A magnetotail event on 15 September 2001 is analyzed, during which the Cluster spacecraft observed both embedding and bifurcation of the Thin Current Sheet (TCS). It is indicated that the ion anisotropy and nongyrotropy are responsible for those new equilibrium features that represent deviations from the conventional Harris model ...

Same Season and Carry-Over Effects of Source-Sink Adjustments on Grapevine Yields and Non-structural Carbohydrates

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2021
The grapevine (Vitis vinifera L.) is managed to balance the ratio of leaf area (source) to fruit mass (sink). Over cropping in the grapevine may reveal itself as spontaneous fruit abortion, delayed ripening, or as alternate bearing.

Simultaneous THEMIS observations in the near-tail portion of the inner and outer plasma sheet flux tubes at substorm onset [PDF]

, 2008
We analyzed the measurements made by two Time History of Events and Macroscale Interactions during Substorms (THEMIS) probes in ideal observational conditions (quiet background, near midnight, inside the substorm current wedge) during two distinct ...

Adaptive Viticulture Strategies to Enhance Resilience and Grape Quality in Cold Climate Regions in Response to Climate Warming

Horticulturae
Cold climate viticulture is challenged by climatic variability, including increased frost risk, shorter growing seasons, and unpredictable weather events that impact vine productivity and grape quality.
