Evaluation of the GreyWater Footprint Comparing the Indirect Effects of Different Agricultural Practices [PDF]
Increasing global food demand and economic growth result in increasing competition over scarce freshwater resources, worsened by climate change and pollution. The agricultural sector has the largest share in the water footprint of humanity.

Water Erosion in a Long-Term Soil Management Experiment with a Humic Cambisol
Water erosion, the main factor in soil degradation, is strongly influenced by soil cover and management. The objective of this study was to determine soil and water losses under natural rainfall conditions from 1993 to 2012 in the southern Santa Catarina

Cytarabine is a key therapy for acute myeloid leukaemia (AML), but its efficacy is limited by the dNTPase SAMHD1, which hydrolyses its active metabolite. Screening nucleotide biosynthesis inhibitors revealed that IMPDH inhibitors selectively sensitise SAMHD1‐proficient AML cells to cytarabine.

Unique biological samples, such as site‐specific mutant proteins, are available only in limited quantities. Here, we present a polarization‐resolved transient infrared spectroscopy setup with referencing to improve signal‐to‐noise tailored towards tracing small signals. We provide an overview of characterizing the excitation conditions for polarization‐

No-tillage Corn Weed Management
Materials and Methods The crop rotation was corn following soybean. Crop residue was 95–100% at planting. Fertilization included 100 lb/A actual N applied as 28% urea ammonium nitrate dribble banded. A randomized complete block design with three replications was used. Herbicides were applied in 20 gal. water/acre.
