The cotton historical lines project—Part I: History and field evaluation
Abstract Common garden experiments have provided great insights into crop adaptation across many systems. Cotton (Gossypium spp.) cultivars have changed in the 20th and 21st centuries, but breeders have not quantified the degree of these changes. We synthesized a panel of 164 non‐genetically modified genotypes, from the private and public sectors ...

Investigation of laboratory saw ginning and blending on cotton fiber quality measurement
Background Small-scale research or individual seed cotton samples from breeders and geneticists are ginned using laboratory saws or roller gins. The objective of this study was to examine the effects of two different laboratory saw ginning (SG) rates and

Turbulent mixing layers in supersonic protostellar outflows, with application to DG Tauri [PDF]
Turbulent entrainment processes may play an important role in the outflows from young stellar objects at all stages of their evolution. In particular, lateral entrainment of ambient material by high-velocity, well-collimated protostellar jets may be the ...

Abstract Horizontal and vertical curves significantly affect crash risk due to their impact on driver behavior, vehicle dynamics, and sight distance. However, their combined effects and spatial interactions remain underexplored in large‐scale safety assessments. To address limitations in high‐resolution geometric data and insufficient spatial modeling,

The effect of cotton fibre characteristics on the measurement of their resistance to rupture. Contribution to the study of the quality of measurements made using high volume instruments (HVI) [PDF]
Cotton fiber strength as measured by HVI is the results of a calculation taking into account the results from a mechanical test and from an optical characterization of the number of broken fibers. This poster presents the general conditions that were used to check the precision and the accuracy of the strength measurement on a set of cotton covering a ...

Synthetic aperture radar (SAR)-based mapping of volcanic flows: Manam Island, Papua New Guinea [PDF]
We present new radar-based techniques for efficient identification of surface changes generated by lava and pyroclastic flows, and apply these to the 1996 eruption of Manam Volcano, Papua New Guinea.

Registration of ‘CA 4019’ cotton cultivar
Abstract Upland cotton (Gossypium hirsutum L.) production is a staple for the economy of the Texas High Plains. The area is responsible for a large portion of the U.S. cotton production. Local water resources are being depleted, forcing producers to maximize production quality and quantity with restricted or minimal irrigation resources.
