A comparison of runoff- and spray-drift-related pesticide contamination in agricultural surface waters : exposure, effects and mitigation

, 2004
Includes bibliographical references.Runoff and spray-drift-related pesticide input are important sources of non pointsource pesticide pollution in surface waters but few studies have directly compared these routes in a risk assessment scenario ...

Design Optimization of Soft Fabric Pneumatic Actuators

Advanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
This study presents a systematic optimization framework for elongating and bending fabric‐based soft pneumatic actuators. After a preliminary design‐space reduction, the framework minimizes energy consumption under mechanical performance constraints by integrating validated finite element modeling with statistical surrogate models. Optimal designs were

Lost ground, lost value: Investigating the relationship between soil erosion and agricultural land value

American Journal of Agricultural Economics, EarlyView.
Abstract This study examines the impact of soil erosion on agricultural land values in the United States (US) Midwest. Based on a novel county‐level panel data set with information on soil erosion levels and agricultural land values covering five census years (1997, 2002, 2007, 2012, and 2017), we separately investigate the direct effect of two types ...

Modelling of water, sediment and phosphorus runoff: implications for grain cropping in southwest Australia

, 2010
Fertiliser decision support systems are widely used for making phosphorus (P) fertiliser recommendations. However, the current decision support systems do not provide an environmental assessment (e.g. P runoff) of the P fertiliser recommendation.

Identification and regionalization of dominant runoff processes – a GIS-based and a statistical approach

, 2009
In this study two approaches are presented to identify Dominant Runoff Processes (DRP) with respect to regionalization. The approaches are a simplification of an existing method to determine DRP by means of an extensive field campaign. The first approach
