1. Investigating Profile And Landscape Scale Variability In Soil Organic Carbon: Implications For Process-oriented Precision ManagementMitigation of rising greenhouse gases concentrations in the atmosphere has focused attention on agricultural soil organic C (SOC) sequestration. However, field scale knowledge of the processes and factors regulating SOC dynamics, distribution and variability is lacking. The objectives of this study are to characterize the profile... D.R.

2. Precision Conservation: Site-specific Trade-offs Of Harvesting Wheat Residues For Biofuel FeedstocksCrop residues are considered to be an important lignocellulosic feedstock for future biofuel production. Harvesting crop residues, however, could lead to serious soil degradation and loss of productivity. Our objective was to evaluate trade-offs associated with harvesting residues including impacts on soil quality, soil organic C and nutrient removal. We used cropping systems data collected at 369 geo-referenced points on the 37-ha Washington State... D.R. Huggins, |
3. Modeling Soil Carbon Spatial Variation: Case Study In The Palouse RegionSoil organic carbon (Cs) levels in the soil profile reflect the transient state or equilibrium conditions determined by organic carbon inputs and outputs. In areas with strong topography, erosion, transport and deposition control de soil carbon balance and determine strong within-field differences in soil carbon. Carbon gains or losses are therefore difficult to predict for the average field. Total Cs ranged from 54 to 272 Mg C ha-1, with 42% (range 25 to 78%) of Cs in the top 0.3-m of the soil... A.R.

4. Greenhouse Study to Identify Glyphosate-resistant Weeds Based on Canopy TemperatureDevelopment of herbicide-resistant crops has resulted in significant positive changes to agronomic practices, while repeated and intensive use of herbicides with the same mechanisms of action has caused the development of herbicide-resistant weeds. As of 2015, 35 weed species are reported to be resistant to glyphosate worldwide. A greenhouse study was conducted to identify characteristics which can be helpful in field mapping of glyphosate resistant weeds by using UAV imagery. The experiment included... A. Shirzadi, M.

5. Assessing Soybean Water Stress Patterns and ENSO Occurrence in Southern Brazil: an in Silico ApproachWater stress (WS) is one of the most important abiotic stresses worldwide, responsible for crop yield penalties and impacting food supply. The frequency and intensity of weather stresses are relevant to delimitating agricultural regions. In addition, El Nino Southern Oscillation (ENSO) has been employed to forecast the occurrence of seasonal WS. Lastly, planting date and cultivar maturity selection are key management strategies for boosting soybean (Glycine max (L.) Merr.) yield... A. Carcedo, L.F. Antunes de almeida, T. Horbe, G.
