1. A Comparison Of Alternative Methods For Prioritizing Buffer Placement In Agricultural Watersheds For Water Quality ImprovementConservation buffers are a widely used best management practice for reducing agricultural nonpoint source pollution. Various governmental programs and community initiatives have been implemented to adopt conservation buffers for water quality improvement. Since there is substantial cost for installing conservation buffers in watersheds, cost-effectiveness would be improved by targeting buffers to locations where they would produce greater benefit and to avoid locations...

2. Indexes for Targeting Buffer Placement to Improve Water QualityTargeting the placement of vegetative buffers may increase their effectiveness to improve watershed water quality. Several GIS-based indexes have been developed to help planners identify relatively better locations for placing buffers. Conservation planners require consistent and clear recommendations on which index should be used in a given planning... Z. Qiu, M.G. Dosskey |
3. Study On The Automatic Monitoring Technology For Fuji Fruit Color Based On Machine VisionFruit color is one of the important indicators of quality and commodities. Three kinds of the traditional methods are used to evaluate fruit color, including artificial visual identification, fruit standard color cards and color measurement instrument. These methods are needed to be conducted in the field by persons, which are time-consuming and labored, and also difficult to obtain the dynamic color information of the target fruits in the growth process. This study developed... M. Chen, M. Li, J. Qian, W. Li, Y. Wang, Y. Zhang, X. Yang |
