(2022-07-26)Grassland comprises approximately 40.5% of terrestrial land area, which is around 5.25 billion ha in total. Grasslands are vital, multi-functional ecosystems for effective nutrient cycling, and habitat and forage for ...
-
(2016-08-02)Inspection of cracks on the surface of tall structures including chimneys, towers, containment buildings, and other cylindrical shapes is executed by visual monitoring to some extent, for which skilled field crews often ...
-
(2023-04-21)Poor soil management limits the soil functions of water infiltration and storage and enhances water and soil losses. Amidst recurring droughts and declining water availability, improved soil management practices such as ...
-
(2021-04-14)This thesis describes the development and flight testing of a compact, re-configurable, rotary-wing micro air vehicle concept capable of sustained hover and could potentially be launched from a 40mm grenade launcher when ...
-
(2023-05-02)The need to improve cotton to the benefit of humanity has been the driving factor in scientific cotton breeding for nearly 150 years. The act of cotton breeding itself is not a novel enterprise. What is novel, however, are ...
-
(2020-04-22)Remote-sensing classification in agriculture provides advanced techniques for expanding the capacity of high-throughput phenotyping in plant breeding and optimizing field management in precision agriculture. Methods applied ...

(2022-09-20)Sorghum bicolor (L.) is a diploid, commonly grown as a hybrid grain crop in developed countries for animal feed, food, and bioenergy. Breeding methodology of this crop is being transformed due to unoccupied aerial systems ...
-
(2019-07-24)Genotypic variance is necessary for trait improvement as limited diversity can reduce genetic gain in crop improvement. To maintain genetic diversity, a wealth of germplasm exists in the USDA-ARS sorghum [Sorghum bicolor ...
-
(2023-04-12)Remote sensing tools such as unmanned aerial systems (UAS) can screen thousands of genotypes in a short time, thus accelerating the selection process for crop improvement. An experiment was conducted at College Station and ...
-
(2012-10-19)This research investigated the Mission Specialist role in micro unmanned aerial systems (mUAS) and was informed by human-robot interaction (HRI) and technology findings, resulting in the design of an interface that increased ...
-
(2015-09-28)The objective of this research aims to develop efficient methods to verify and validate linear time-invariant models derived from nonlinear time-variant systems. The parametric model will be compared to a non-parametric ...
-
(2017-07-25)Small unmanned aircraft are being used in an increasing number of applications ranging from emergency response to parcel delivery. Many of these applications are benefited when employed as a multiple-vehicle operation. ...
-
Unmanned Aerial System (UAS) photogrammetry is a popular method for generating digital elevation models (DEMs) of large areas in a timely and precise manner. The DEMs produced from UAS photogrammetry can be referenced to ...
-
(2020-11-20)The following describes development of performance models for the battery, motor controller (electronic speed controller, or ESC), and brushless DC (BLDC) motor of small unmanned aerial systems (UAS) with a gross takeoff ...
-
(2021-08-18)Smutgrass (Sporobolus indicus) is an aggressive, perennial bunchgrass that invades introduced and native pastures primarily in the southeastern part of the United States. It is problematic to agriculture in range and pasture ...
