Insight private equity : [Version 18 June 2013] [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
We are able to shed light on the black box of restructuring tools private equity investors use to improve the operational performance of their portfolio companies. By building on previous work considering performance evaluation of PE backed companies, we

Effects of light-diffusing plastic film on lettuce production and quality attributes

open access: yesSpanish Journal of Agricultural Research, 2017
In general, plants grown under diffuse light yield higher biomass than those grown under direct light as a result of a more uniform distribution of the light across the plant canopy.

Morphological and Physiological Responses of Cucumber Seedlings to Different Combinations of Light Intensity and Photoperiod with the Same Daily Light Integral

open access: yesHortScience, 2021
Lighting strategies for morphological and physiological characteristics of horticultural crops often focus on the proper daily light integral (DLI); however, a suitable combination of photosynthetic photon flux density (PPFD) and photoperiod at the same ...

Evaluation and Comparison of Light Use Efficiency and Gross Primary Productivity Using Three Different Approaches

open access: yesRemote Sensing, 2020
Light use efficiency (LUE), which characterizes the efficiency with which vegetation converts captured/absorbed radiation into organic dry matter through photosynthesis, is a key parameter for estimating vegetation gross primary productivity (GPP ...

Physiological basis of the light use efficiency model [PDF]

open access: yesTree Physiology, 1998
The observation that, for unstressed plants, light use efficiency of a plant canopy, defined as the ratio of net primary productivity (NPP) to absorbed photosynthetically active radiation (APAR), is approximately constant with respect to changes in APAR, implies that NPP can be modeled using a linear relationship with APAR.

Highly efficient FRET-based light-harvesting using nanocrystals

open access: yes2009 IEEE LEOS Annual Meeting Conference Proceedings, 2009
Dye molecules are widely used for biolabeling in molecular biology because of their high quantum efficiency and stability. Their small size (only a few nanometers) enables their use in bioimaging and biodetection of molecular features, for example, for double stranded deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA).

An optical reaction micro-turbine [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
To any energy flow there is an associated flow of momentum, so that recoil forces arise every time an object absorbs or deflects incoming energy. This same principle governs the operation of macroscopic turbines as well as that of microscopic turbines ...

Light interception and radiation use efficiency of wheat varieties as influenced by number of irrigations

open access: yesJournal of Agrometeorology, 2009
An experiment was conducted during rabi seasons of 2002-03 and 2003-04 to quantify the light interception and radiation use efficiency for three wheat varieties as affected by variable number of irrigations with the combination of three wheat varieties ...

P-model v1.0: an optimality-based light use efficiency model for simulating ecosystem gross primary production

open access: yesGeoscientific Model Development, 2019
. Terrestrial photosynthesis is the basis for vegetation growth and drives the land carbon cycle. Accurately simulating gross primary production (GPP, ecosystem-level apparent photosynthesis) is key for satellite monitoring and Earth system model ...
