Ceramic ecology in an Islamic capital: changes in the production and consumption of pottery in Palermo

open access: yesEarly Medieval Europe, EarlyView.
Palermo became the new capital of Sicily after the Aghlabid conquest in 831. The transformation of the city into a capital took many forms, including the production and consumption of pottery. The perspective from ceramic evidence shows that Palermo underwent faster and deeper processes of Islamization than other urban and rural contexts across the ...

Optimizing airflow reversals for kiln drying of softwood timber by applying mathematical models

open access: yesMaderas: Ciencia y Tecnología, 2014
After experimental validation of a kiln-wide drying model, a single board drying model and a stress model for kiln drying of softwood timber, these models are integrated and used to investigate benefits of airflow reversals in smoothing moisture content ...

From Social Justice to Indigenous Peoples' Rights: Continuities and (Re)framings in Ejido Property Claims in Yucatán, Mexico

open access: yesJournal of Agrarian Change, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This article examines how long‐standing local conflicts concerning the nature of common property, the distribution of access and administrative rights associated with it, and more broadly the nature of the community and the forms of citizenship that organise its governance shape demands for justice regarding land transfers to outside investors

Combined effects of lance nematode populations and use of plant growth regulators on creeping bentgrass putting greens

open access: yesCrop, Forage &Turfgrass Management, Volume 12, Issue 2, December 2026.
Abstract Plant growth regulators (PGRs) are used to optimize turfgrass growth, reduce management inputs, and potentially mitigate diseases. However, golf course superintendents have reported anecdotal evidence linking increased PGR‐induced phytotoxicity with high populations of lance nematodes (Hoplolaimus galeatus).

Using Dynamic Programming to Obtain Efficient Kiln-drying Schedules [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
This paper outlines a method for determining kiln-drying schedules that is based on the optimization technique of dynamic programming. The method is described with reference to the kiln drying of cedar pencil slats, but could be extended, with ...

The Process Transport of Drying Corn With Mixed-Adsorption Drying [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Mixed-adsorption drying with adsorptive material such as zeolite is an option to enhance the performance of drying corn. In this case, zeolite and seeds are mixed and fluidized by warm air as drying medium.

Temporal genetic relationships between growth, development, and malting quality in winter barley (Hordeum vulgare) using aerial imagery

open access: yesThe Plant Phenome Journal, Volume 9, Issue 1, December 2026.
Abstract Grain characteristics are the cumulative product of growth and development throughout the growing season. In barley (Hordeum vulgare), these traits determine the grain's value for malting purposes. The ability to accurately predict the genetic merit for malting quality is of great interest for barley breeding programs. Same‐season selection on
