This paper examines the influence of social and economic change on family structure relationships: How do such transformations as industrialization, urbanization, demographic change, expansion education, long-term growth income family? We take a comparative historical approach, reviewing experiences three major sociocultural regions: West, China, South Asia. Many changes that have occurred in life been remarkably similar settings—the separation workplace from home, increased training...
A comprehensive study of the cultural ecology, demography, and domestic organization one village undergoing socioeconomic changes, Tamang community Timling.
Abstract Grassland systems frequently exhibit small‐scale botanical and structural heterogeneity with pronounced spatio‐temporal dynamics. These features present particular challenges for sensor applications, in addition to limitations posed by the high cost low spatial resolution of many available remote‐sensing ( RS ) systems. There has been little commercial application practical grassland farming. This article considers developments performance, data analysis modelling over recent...
Abstract The use of semi‐natural grasslands for the production renewable energy through conventional conversion techniques faces major limitations because chemical and physical properties biomass. A new procedure was developed which separates biomass, as silage, into a liquid phase biogas solid fraction to be used fuel. Separation (mechanical dehydration) is carried out with screw press after mashing water (hydrothermal conditioning). effect hydrothermal conditioning at different...
An accurate estimation of biomass is needed to understand the spatio-temporal changes forage resources in pasture ecosystems and support grazing management decisions. A timely evaluation challenging, as it requires efficient means such technical sensing methods assess numerous data create continuous maps. In order calibrate ultrasonic spectral sensors, a field experiment with heterogeneous pastures continuously stocked by cows at three intensities was conducted. Sensor fusion combining sward...
ABSTRACT Timely assessments of nutritive values legume‐based swards during the growing season can facilitate a targeted and site‐specific forage management. This study was undertaken to explore potential field spectral measurements for nondestructive prediction metabolizable energy, ash content, crude protein (CP), acid detergent fiber legume–grass mixtures. A population 200 ( Lolium perenne L., Trifolium repens pratense L.) representing wide range legume proportion (0–100% dry matter),...
Abstract A procedure (Integrated Generation of Solid Fuel and Biogas from Biomass, IFBB) was developed which uses a screw press to separate the readily digestible constituents mature grassland biomass into fluid for conversion biogas fibrous cake processing solid fuel. Effects mechanical dehydration prior hydrothermal conditioning at different temperatures (5, 60 80°C) on concentrations organic compounds in methane production batch experiments were evaluated five semi‐natural grasslands...
Survey methods have been criticized for producing unreliable, invalid data and failing to provide contextual information test complex causal hypotheses. We discuss a technique that combines survey ethnographic at every stage of the collection process overcome these shortcomings. use evidence show how combined approach reduces coverage errors, nonresponse errors measurement arising from interviewer, questionnaire, respondent. Complete integration two during can uncover alone would missed....
Abstract The integrated generation of solid fuel and biogas from biomass (IFBB) procedure separates into a readily digestible press fluid, which is produced, fibrous cake that used as fuel. effects mechanical dehydration prior hydrothermal conditioning (5, 60 80°C) on five species‐rich, semi‐natural grasslands, typical mountain areas Germany were investigated. Proportional reduction ash constituents in the compared with parent material was up to 0·80, 0·61 0·81 for potassium, magnesium...
Abstract The identification of major uptake pathways in plants is an important factor when evaluating the fate manufactured nanoparticles environment and associated risks. Using different radiolabeling techniques we were able to show a predominantly particulate for CeO 2 contrast possible form ionic cerium.
RNA interference is a powerful experimental tool for knockdown, but not all organisms are amenable. Here, we provide proof of principle demonstration that type III Csm effector complex can be used programmable mRNA transcript degradation in eukaryotes. In zebrafish, Streptococcus thermophilus (StCsm) proved effective knockdown maternally expressed EGFP germ cells Tg(ddx4:ddx4-EGFP) fish. It also led to significant, albeit less drastic, fluorescence reduction at one day postfertilization...
SUMMARY In many parts of Pakistan, availability green forage is critical to livestock farmers. Forage production often conducted with two succeeding crops grown within one year and it highly affected by uncertain irrigation water low levels applied mineral fertilisers. The objectives the present study were (i) evaluate effects crop species, fertiliser type level on yield, (ii) determine corresponding use efficiency (iii) investigate relationships between chlorophyll content yield as a basis...
Abstract Grassland biomass has been identified as a potential energy source. The combustion of mature and fibrous biomass, occurs in extensive grasslands managed with low cutting frequencies, is one possible conversion technique. This study tested the relationship between plant diversity constituents relevant for combustion, they determine content, yield emission corrosion risks. from biodiversity experiment, species richness ( SR ) gradient 1–60 Central European mesophilic divided into four...
ABSTRACT An efficient and accurate detection of dry matter (DM) yield legume–grass mixtures can facilitate a targeted site‐specific management legume‐based swards. The major objective this study was to examine the relationship between spectral signatures swards DM across wide range legume species (white clover [ Trifolium repens L.], red T. pratense alfalfa Medicago sativa birdsfoot trefoil Lotus corniculatus L.]), proportion (0–100% DM), growth stage (beginning tillering end flowering)....
