Deposits of foliar-applied herbicides: characterization and relevance for bio-efficacy as evaluated in selected weed species
Basi, Sabin (2013-10-07)The main focus is to elucidate and characterize the effect of formulation on the deposition patterns and the consequences for the foliar uptake of herbicides, either through cuticular or stomatal pathways. Glyphosate (Gly) ... -
Design of frequency selective filters for non-equispaced data
Schuh, Wolf-Dieter; Franken, Jessica; Brockmann, Jan Martin; Esch, Christina; Köhler, Joël; Gutjahr, Karlheinz (2018-07-22)Modern sensors and satellite missions deliver huge data sets and long time series of observations. In the most cases equispaced time series are collected. Filtering of time series is a standard task in data analysis. ... -
Detection and Attribution of Spatiotemporal Trends of Climatic Disaster Mortality in Nepal
Chapagain, Dipesh (2024-02-16)The socioeconomic impacts of climatic disasters are increasing globally. Some studies have argued that this increasing trend results from the growing population and assets exposed to hazardous events. Other studies have ... -
Detection and characterization of QTL in a porcinen Duroc-Pietrain resource population
Liu, Guisheng (2005)In the present thesis, genome scans were performed for QTL detection in a F2 resource population which was reciprocally crossed between Duroc and Pietrain. 1085 F2 progeny within 38 full-sib families were produced from ... -
Detection, identification, and quantification of fungal diseases of sugar beet leaves using imaging and non-imaging hyperspectral techniques
Mahlein, Anne-Katrin (2011-02-22)Plant diseases influence the optical properties of plants in different ways. Depending on the host pathogen system and disease specific symptoms, different regions of the reflectance spectrum are affected, resulting in ... -
Determinants and health risks of overweight and obesity among children and adolescents in Germany
Kleiser, Christina (2010-03-02)The worldwide growing prevalence of overweight and obesity is becoming an important public health concern, also among children and adolescents. To establish effective prevention strategies, it is important to identify ... -
Determinants of incentive-based forest governance in the Amazon: Evidence from Ecuador, Peru, and Brazil
Rosa da Conceição, Hugo (2018-02-07)Command-and-control policies are often criticized as insufficient to tackle tropical deforestation. Over the past two decades, both academics and policy-makers have promoted incentive-based policies, such as payments for ... -
The Determinants of Long-Term Growth in Smallholder Agriculture in Rwanda: An Intergenerational Analysis
Musafiri, Ildephonse (2015-06-03)The current study explores the determinants of long-term growth in small-scale agriculture in a rural area of Rwanda, with a special focus on intergenerational mobility of income and poverty over the past two and a half ... -
Determination and verification of possible resource savings in manual dishwashing
Fuss, Natalie Anna (2011-07-14)Many tests and consumer surveys have shown that manual dishwashing at home is done in very different ways, taking also different amounts of resources. Because almost every household, whether owning an automatic dishwasher ... -
