The objectives of this study were to compare (i) the pattern of resource use and the productivity in cool-season crops and their influence on the following warm-season second crops, and (ii) the overall resource capture, resource use efficiency, and productivity of various single and double cropping systems.
In this way, we can optimise the use, efficiency and productivity of resources, the formation and growth of new industries, the introduction of new organisational models aimed at spreading information, the production and distribution of goods and services and the recycling of waste, while ensuring the well-being of the Earth as a whole.
Using the presence and productivity of former co-authors and potential collaborators as a proxy to measure the quality of the peer environment, the authors show that, "all else equal, scientists are more likely to move (than not) in a given year if the peer environment at home is not very good," Ganguli says.
This paper extends that approach with quantitative modeling of surface water allocation rules at multiple scales and the consequent economic impact on water use and productivity in the Indus River of Pakistan.
Primary outcomes are knee-related daily function, medical costs (healthcare use and productivity loss), and quality of life.
Alternative centre-pivot irrigation scenarios were also developed to assess their feasibility in terms of water use and productivity when irrigation is used to supplement rainfall or when rainfall is scarce.
For this purpose, we analysed healthcare use and productivity loss in a prospective cohort of patients starting AM therapies (AMOS), and calculated direct and indirect costs.
Therefore the objectives of this experiment were to evaluate the effect of inoculation of elite Rhizobium sp. on use efficiency of N, nodulation and productivity of common bean in four representative experimental sites of Eastern Ethiopia.
New limits on water availability, the changing nature of our economy, new technologies that permit great improvements in efficiency and productivity of water use, and new management approaches have broken the two curves of water use and traditional population and economic growth apart.
Building information modeling (BIM) is an emerging technology focused methodology that can be used to improve the performance and productivity of an asset's design, construction, operation and maintenance process.
