Fodder beet (Beta vulgaris L.) is an important forage crop used for cattle wintering in New Zealand. Regional nitrogen (N) fertiliser experiments over two seasons (2016–2018) consisting of different N application rates (0–300 kg N/ha) and times of N application (sowing, canopy closure, and mid‐bulb development stage) were used to validate yield ...

Mathematical Modeling of Oscillating Water Columns Wave‐Structure Interaction in Ocean Energy Plants
Oscillating Water Column (OWC)‐based power take‐off systems are one of the potential solutions to the current energy problems arising from the use of nuclear fission and the consumption of fossil fuels. This kind of energy converter turns wave energy into electric power by means of three different stages: firstly wave energy is transformed into ...

Differential predation patterns of free‐ranging cats among continents
Co‐evolutionary relationships associated with biogeographical context mediate the response of native prey to introduced predators, but this effect has not yet been demonstrated for domestic cats. We investigated the main factors influencing the vulnerability of prey species to domestic cat Felis catus predation across Australia, Europe and North ...
