1. Hypoxia in the Northern Gulf of Mexico- Causes and ConsequencesSeasonally severe and persistent hypoxia, or low dissolved oxygen concentrations, occur on the inner to mid-Louisiana continental shelf to the west of the Mississippi River and Atchafalaya River deltas. The areal extent during mid-summer surveys of 1993- 1997 ranged from 15.800 to 18,200 km2. The shelfwide distribution in mid-summer for 1985 to 1992 averaged 8,000 to 9,000 km2. Hypoxia occurs below the pycnocline from as early as late February through early October, but is most widespread, persistent... |
2. Vegetative Assessment of Phosphorus and Nitrogen Status in Maize Using Remote SensingAssess spatial variability of soil P and N is not only costly but also a time consuming processes. Remote sensing measurements of canopy spectral reflectance can provide a rapid and non- destructive method for assessing plant-canopy nutrient status. The main objective of this research was to detect P and N stress during the early corn growth by selecting specific wavelengths, or combinations of them, using narrow band field sensors. In 2001, two corn experiments were planted over an old manure experiment... |
