The Motion Decoupled Delivery System: A New Deployment System for Downhole Tools is Tested at the New Jersey Margin [PDF]
Scientific Drilling, 2013 The Motion Decoupled Hydraulic Delivery System (MDHDS) is a new downhole tool delivery system that is deployed by wireline and uses drillstring pressure to advance a penetrometer (or other downhole tool) into the formation at the bottom of offshore ...

Discussion of ‘‘Re-Examination of Undrained Strength at Atterberg Limits Water Contents’’ by H.B. Nagaraj, A. Sridharan & H.M. Mallikarjuna [PDF]
, 2012 Having recently investigated soil strength at the Atterberg limits, the discussers read the paper by Nagaraj et al. (2012) with interest. Whilst some of the conclusions of the paper concur with those of our own work, there are other areas in which we ...

Plant Biotechnology Journal, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Stalk rot, primarily caused by Fusarium graminearum (Fg) and Pythium inflatum (Pi), is a major maize disease responsible for significant yield losses. The molecular mechanisms governing defence against these pathogens remain poorly understood. To uncover key miRNAs and their regulatory genes, small RNA, degradome, and transcriptome sequencing ...

Instrumented Impact Cone Penetrometer [PDF]
Canadian Geotechnical Journal, 1973 The present paper describes the development of an instrumented impact cone penetrometer for a direct measurement of in situ strength properties of a soil target. The developed penetrometer, in addition to providing acceleration signatures (as obtained by previous investigators), is capable of recording cone thrust and local side friction ...

Development of a Cone Penetrometer for Measuring Spectral Characteristics of Soils in Situ [PDF]
, 1993 A patent was recently granted to the U.S. Army for an adaptation of a soil cone penetrometer that can be used to measure the spectral characteristics (fluorescence or reflectance) of soils adjacent to the penetrometer rod. The system can use a variety of

Portable penetrometer for agricultural soil: sensitivity test to identify critical compaction depth
Revista Brasileira de Ciência do Solo, 2010 To express the negative effects of soil compaction, some researchers use critical values for soil mechanical strength that severely impair plant growth. The aim of this study was to identify this critical compaction depth, to test the functionality of a ...

Restoration Ecology, EarlyView.Abstract Introduction Recreational off‐highway vehicle (OHV) use can cause significant disturbance to natural areas. The use of local balsam poplar (Populus balsamifera L.) cuttings may be a solution to supply native plant material for the restoration of flood‐prone and riparian environments.

Oviposition and larval establishment of three ‘generalist’ noctuids on Capsicum annuum
Austral Entomology, Volume 65, Issue 1, February 2026.Abstract Understanding the oviposition and foraging behaviour of pestiferous lepidopterans on their economically important food plants guides the development of effective pest management tactics. Here, we examined the oviposition behaviour and larval establishment of three noctuid species on a single crop—capsicum (Capsicum annuum).
