Climate Volatility and Change in Central Asia: Economic Impacts and Adaptation
Mirzabaev, Alisher (2013-07-08)Central Asia is projected to experience a significant climate change, combined with increased weather volatility. Agriculture is a key economic sector and a major source of livelihoods for Central Asia’s predominantly rural ... -
Clinically-relevant antibiotic-resistant bacteria in process waters and wastewater from poultry and pig slaughterhouses and assessment of the bacterial dissemination into surface waters
Savin-Hoffmeyer, Michael (2021-01-21)The objective of this thesis was the investigation of clinically-relevant antibiotic-resistant bacteria in process waters and wastewater from poultry and pig slaughterhouses and the assessment of the bacterial dissemination ... -
Coestimating long-term temporal signals to reduce the aliasing effect in parametric geodetic mean dynamic topography estimation
Brockmann, Jan Martin; Borlinghaus, Moritz; Neyers, Christian; Schuh, Wolf-Dieter (2022-06-16)The geodetic estimation of the mean dynamic ocean topography (MDT) as the difference between the mean of the sea surface and the geoid remains, despite the simple relation, still a difficult task. Mainly, the spectral ... -
Collaborative Working Environments: Group Needs Approach to Designing Systems for Supporting Spatially Distributed Groups
Pankiewicz, Maciej Władysław (2011-02-24)Collaboration in spatially distributed groups requires technological support for mediating collaborative activities and members’ interactions over time and distance. Technology provides multiple tools for supporting ... -
Combining Fluorescence and Reflectance to Quantify Dynamics in Photosynthetic Regulation
Acebron, Kelvin (2021-12-14)Photosynthesis in the field is anything but steady-state. Because environment is changing, understanding plant’s photosynthetic activity <em>in situ</em> is challenging. Measurement of solar-induced fluorescence (SIF), ... -
Comparative genetic linkage map for Solanum ochranthum and S. juglandifolium and genetic diversity and population structure in S. lycopersicoides and S. sitiens
Albrecht, Elena (2008)The four nightshades <em>Solanum ochranthum, S. juglandifolium, S. lycopersicoides </em>and<em> S. sitiens </em>compose the basal ranks of the tomato clade (<em>S. sect. lycopersicum </em>and<em> S. sect. juglandifolium</em>), ... -
Comparative intake and digestibility among ruminant species fed forage-based diets
Riaz, Muhammad Qaiser (2015-02-02)The first ruminants evolved about 50 million years ago and were small forest dwelling omnivores. Today there are about 200 species of ruminants which include both wild and domestic species. Cattle, sheep, and goats account ... -
Comparative studies on the infection and colonization of maize leaves by Fusarium graminearum, F. proliferatum and F. verticillioides
Nguyen, Thi Thanh Xuan (2014-09-01)Infection of <em>Fusarium</em> species causes quantitative along with qualitative damage on small grains and maize plants. This is due to leaf damage together with contamination by formation of different mycotoxins. Because ... -
Comparison of different soil water extraction systems for the prognoses of solute transport at the field scale using numerical simulations, field and lysimeter experiments
Weihermüller, Lutz (2005)Sampling of water and solutes in soils is of major importance to understand water movement and solute transport in soils and to validate mathematical models. Porous cups are widely used to extract soil water for monitoring ... -
Comparison of DRIS and critical level approach for evaluating nutrition status of wheat in District Hyderabad, Pakistan
Akhter, Naheed (2012-03-07)Intensive cropping systems, improper use of fertilizers or no fertilizer application, and unreliable and poor quality of irrigation water have led to declining soil fertility in the district of Hyderabad, Pakistan. To date, ... -
Comparison of the sustainability of ecological farming approaches using bio-economic modeling
Freytag, Julia Petra (2024-06-05)EU and national policies foster ecological farming approaches to mitigate environmental pressures and increase sustainability of agricultural production. However, existing policies suffer from limited participation or low ... -
Complementary feeding practice during infancy and its relevance for dietary behaviour in infancy and childhood
Foterek, Kristina (2016-06-10)Emerging research indicates that besides innate taste preferences early sensory experiences in infancy via amniotic fluid, breast milk, and infant formula play a crucial role in the development of individual food preferences ... -
