Impacts of Shade Trees on the Adjacent Cacao Rhizosphere in a Young Diversified Agroforestry System
Agronomy, 2022 Cacao agroforestry systems offer the potential to diversify farmer income sources, enhance biodiversity, sequester carbon, and deliver other important ecosystem services. To date, however, studies have emphasized field- and system-scale outcomes of shade

Native Shade Trees Aid Bird Conservation in Tea Plantations in Southern India
Current Science, 2021 In the Western Ghats, India, we study how different intensities of tea cultivation influence birds. We com-pared bird communities in conventional monoculture tea and mixed-shade tea plantations, both of which use agrochemicals, with organic tea ...

Proceedings of the 2006 symposium on Interactive 3D graphics and games - SI3D '06, 2006 As GPU-powered special effects become more sophisticated, it becomes harder to create and manage effect interaction using the fairly primitive shading languages. This difficulty also introduces a workflow problem: artists design effects but only programmers can implement them, making it impossible for them to work asynchronously.To address these ...

Effects of shade trees on robusta coffee growth, yield and quality. A meta-analysis
Agronomy for Sustainable Development, 2020 Productivity of coffee plantations is threatened by both climate change and decreasing revenues of coffee growers. Using shade trees might protect against temperature variability, erosion and excessive radiation but there may be trade-offs in ...

Tree-Structured Shading Decomposition
2023 IEEE/CVF International Conference on Computer Vision (ICCV), 2023 We study inferring a tree-structured representation from a single image for object shading. Prior work typically uses the parametric or measured representation to model shading, which is neither interpretable nor easily editable. We propose using the shade tree representation, which combines basic shading nodes and compositing methods to factorize ...

The effect of nitrogen fertilizer on hybrid maize yields under the shade of coconut trees [PDF]
E3S Web of Conferences, 2021 The need for maize in West Kalimantan is around 320,000 tonnes per year, most of which is still imported from outside the region. Cultivating the maize under the shade of coconut trees is an alternative to meet the needs of maize in West Kalimantan and ...
