Spatial and temporal variability of CO2 emisions in soils under conventional tillage and no-till farming [PDF]
, 2012 Agricultural soils can act as a carbon sink depending on the soil management practices employed. As a result of this functional duality, soil management systems are present in international documents relating to climate change mitigation.

Effects of No-Tillage Production Practices on Crop Yields as Influenced by Crop and Growing Environment Factors [PDF]
This paper evaluated differences between yields of no-tillage compared to conventional or reduced tillage and their associated downside risk. Six crops were evaluated along with how those yields and risks differed by various environmental factors such ...

Helix Alignment, Chevrons, and Edge Dislocations in Twist‐Bend Ferroelectric Nematics
Advanced Science, EarlyView.The recently discovered twist‐bend ferroelectric nematic (NTBF) is the new member of the multiferroic family, representing a fluid with an oblique helicoidal (heliconical) periodic structure of spontaneous electric polarization. The work presents a thorough exploration of the material properties of this phase, how the periodic modulation of ...

No-Tillage impacts on soil hydraulic properties compared with conventional tillage
, 2012 Soil hydraulic properties are very important in precision irrigation, water and solute transport and irrigation scheduling. Tillage can change near surface soil hydraulic properties. In this study Beerkan methodwas used to better understand tillage and no-tillage impacts on transmission properties of topsoil.
