We describe the Dark Energy Camera (DECam), which will be primary instrument used in Survey. DECam a 3 sq. deg. mosaic camera mounted at prime focus of Blanco 4m telescope Cerro-Tololo International Observatory (CTIO). includes large CCD focal plane, five element optical corrector, filters (g,r,i,z,Y), and associated infrastructure for operation cage. The plane consists 62 2K x 4K modules (0.27"/pixel) arranged hexagon inscribed within roughly 2.2 degree diameter field view. CCDs 250 micron...

Crop water demand in the Okanagan Basin was determined for 1961 to 1990, 2010 2039, 2040 2069, and 2070 2099. Daily station temperature data were spatially interpolated a 1 × km grid adjusted elevation. precipitation estimated across four climatic regions. Output from three global climate models (GCM), CGCM2, CSIROMk2 HadCM3 used create future daily climate. potential evapo-transpiration (grass reference) an empirical relationship between Bellani- plate atmometer readings, extra-terrestrial...

Abstract We describe a research-for-development (R4D) strategy developed to address how investments and interventions in agricultural intensification as means achieve community development can be designed more socially inclusive equitable. draw on results from 5-year project – Promoting sustainable West Bengal (India) southern Bangladesh (SIAGI). reflect major pivot the project’s strategy, being primarily research-driven placing concerns priorities at centre with shift towards Ethical...

Affecting behavioural change is a common underlying goal across environmental and agricultural sciences, from climate mitigation adaptation, biodiversity conservation, water management, to crop diversification. However, many projects fail drive or sustain despite sound science good intentions. This paper draws on existing theories of construct conceptual framework that explores pathways initiate through the lens empowerment, self-efficacy agency. The demonstrated with case studies project in...

Managed aquifer recharge (MAR) has been proposed as an innovative water storage method to manage variable availability in Australian agricultural regions by combatting shortage whilst addressing groundwater overuse and reducing large evaporative losses from surface storages. MAR innovations involve the of into aquifers extraction when needed. However, their uptake limited they are associated with amounts uncertainty. We present argumentation approach reason about feasibility Coleambally...
