An important feature of the ASAE revised standard practice EP403.3 DEC98 for the design of anaerobic lagoons for animal waste management is the addition of normal runoff and normal precipitation on the lagoon surface between drawdown events in the ca

A system for measuring water droplet impact energy is described, which consists of piezoelectric film connected to a high-speed data acquisition board in a personal computer. The system converts the impact forces of individual water droplets falling

Mesophilic (37°C) performance of attached-film anaerobic digesters fed with dairy manure that had been subjected to low temperature (10°C) stress was evaluated. Two digesters packed with limestone gravel, two with pieces cut from non-woven polyeste

Retention of microorganisms in anaerobic digesters by providing an attachment medium can potentially increase their productivity at lower operating temperatures. The objective of this work was to investigate the effectiveness of attached-film bioreac

Four variations of the least-squares regression procedure proposed by Lettau (1971) were used to define a solution envelope containing the soil thermal diffusivity function, a(z), for a soil with a heterogeneous moisture profile. An explicit finite d

A simple model for hourly soil temperatures within 100 mm of the surface, for use in appropriate biophysical development models, was derived from simulations using a physically based, one-dimensional, numerical model for soil temperature and water co

The internal wiring of an existing stem or trunk flow gauge was redesigned to obtain greater accuracy of the gauge itself, eliminate errors due to signal loss in connecting cables, and reduce the number of channels and of the computing required of th

THIS study evaluated the effect of varying levels of water stress on leaf resistance, leaf water potential and transpiration of drip irrigated peach [Prunus persica (L.) Batsch]. Leaf resistances were significantly higher for the 1-emitter tree indic
