Errors associated with particulate matter measurements on rural sources: appropriate basis for regulating cotton gins
(Texas A&M University, 2004-09-30)
Agricultural operations across the United States are encountering difficulties complying with current air pollution regulations for particulate matter (PM). PM is currently regulated in terms of particle diameters less ...
Environmental amenities and disamenities, and housing prices; using GIS techniques
(Texas A&M University, 2004-09-30)
This research investigated the effects of Scientifically Estimated Environmental Risks (SEERs) and perceived risks of floods, hurricanes, and hazardous material releases, and hazard mitigation measures with other locational ...
Diurnal variations in methane emission from rice plants
(Texas A&M University, 2004-11-15)
A greenhouse study was conducted to investigate the mechanisms causing diurnal variations in methane emission from rice plants (Oryza sativa L.). Methane emission was measured using a closed chamber system on individual ...
A study of micro fiber dispersion using digital image analysis
(Texas A&M University, 2004-11-15)
The area of the digital image processing is getting more attention in the hope that it will increase the accuracy of any scientific measurements, such as in determining an object velocity, temperature, and size. While ...
A comparison of the environmental effects of traditional intensive forestry and the sustainable forestry initiative: a modeling approach at the landscape level
(Texas A&M University, 2004-09-30)
Changes in landscape pattern caused by changes in forest management, namely the Sustainable Forestry Initiative (SFI), and the implications of these structural changes on landscape processes were analyzed. Landscape structure ...
Development of SCAR marker linked to a root-knot nematode resistant gene in peanut
(Texas A&M University, 2004-11-15)
Root-knot disease caused by Meloidogyne spp. is the most important nematode disease of peanut. Even though many management strategies have been applied to control this disease on peanut, resistance is the most recommendable. ...
Alliance coordination effectiveness and the performance of international strategic alliances: development of the partnership and moderating role of market environment turbulence
(Texas A&M University, 2004-11-15)
The purpose of this dissertation was to investigate post-international strategic alliance (ISA) formation issues, which have been neglected in the ISA literature. The specific research questions were 1) how do ISA partners ...
Two-port polarization independent electro-optically tunable wavelength filter in lithium niobate
(Texas A&M University, 2004-09-30)
Two-port polarization independent electro-optically wavelength tunable filters based on asymmetric Mach-Zehnder structure in LiNbO3 substrate have been developed for 1.55μm application. The operation principle is based on ...
Tube bending with axial pull and internal pressure
(Texas A&M University, 2004-09-30)
Tube bending is a widely used manufacturing process in the aerospace, automotive, and other industries. During tube bending, considerable in-plane distortion and thickness variation occurs. The thickness increases at the ...
