Smart Bioaerosol Monitoring: Advanced Sampling and Sensing across Environmental, Clinical, and Industrial Domains
2. Behavior of Bioaerosols Click to copy section linkSection link copied! To understand the behavior of bioaerosols in the environment, it is necessary to consider the formation of bioaerosols, their physical properties, and their interactions with the environment. The common mechanisms through which the bioaerosols are produced include coughing, sneezing, soil kicking, and release by plants. (1,62) These activities end up releasing particles of various sizes and compositions.
Comparative analysis of four soil water sensors for irrigation water management
ANOVA analysis of variance CST Central Standard Time MBE mean bias error NDAWN North Dakota Agricultural Weather Network NRCS Natural Resources Conservation Service PET potential evapotranspiration RMSE root mean square error SWCC soil water characteristic curve TDR time domain reflectometry VRI variable rate irrigation 1 INTRODUCTION Soil water sensors can help address the growing need to optimize water usage and improve crop productivity by providing real-time data on θv in the soil, thus...
The impact of residue and cover crop management on soil water and temperature regimes in a loam soil in North Dakota
AE available energy DOY day of year 1 INTRODUCTION In the Northern Great Plains, small grain production systems leave the soil without growing vegetation for an average of 31–38 days, from the time of harvest to first killing frost (Table 1; Jantzi et al., 2024). This unprotected surface leaves the soil vulnerable to erosion. Under these conditions, cover crops can help reduce wind and water erosion before winter freeze-up.
Soils information for urban customers: A perspective
HAHT human-altered and human-transported NRCS Natural Resources Conservation Service UA urban agriculture USDA United States Department of Agriculture 1 INTRODUCTION Using Minnesota, North Dakota, and South Dakota as examples, states with populations of 5.7, 0.92, and 0.8 million, respectively (U.S. Census Bureau, 2021), less than 1% of the land is considered urban, while over 60% of its population lives in these areas (U.S. Census Bureau, 2021).
Interseeded cover crops in wide‐row corn: An opportunity for northern cropping systems
θg soil gravimetric water content UAN urea ammonium nitrate 1 INTRODUCTION Although the benefits of cover crops to soil health, erosion control, and weed suppression have been widely researched and recognized, producers still face difficulty identifying a time in their cropping rotation to facilitate cover crop establishment (CTIC, et al., 2020, 2023).
Managing nitrogen to promote quality and profitability of North Dakota two‐row malting barley
EONR economic optimum nitrogen rate TKAN total known available nitrogen 1 INTRODUCTION The Northern Great Plains region—specifically North Dakota, Montana, and southern Manitoba and Saskatchewan—are large producers of barley. Historically, the barley cultivars in this region destined for the malting industry were six-row types; however, very recently, malting companies began to contract only two-row barley cultivars, leading to a shift in production.
Oil spill soil remediation using thermal desorption: Project synthesis and outcomes
PHC petroleum hydrocarbon concentrations SOC soil organic carbon TD thermal desorption TPH total petroleum hydrocarbons 1 INTRODUCTION Land use in western North Dakota, part of the Williston Basin, has traditionally been dominated by agricultural production, but between January 2005 and January 2020 oil production in the area increased from 0.48 to 7.5 million m3 month−1 (ND DMR, 2022).
