Carbon Footprint: A New Farm Management Consideration in the Southern High Plains

As concerns continue to mount regarding man induced impacts to the global climate, the SHPT region could be faced with a unique scenario in which the net carbon balance should be considered in the producer’s enterprise selection and production systems. Currently, the SHPT produces nearly one third of the U.S. cotton crop. Under a potential cap and trade system the challenge for the agricultural industry in the SHPT may be how to sustain the region’s economic base and production capabilities. Thus, the objective of this study was to measure the net carbon relationships between irrigated cotton and irrigated corn production systems on the SHPT using data from the Texas Alliance for Water Conservation (TAWC, 2009). Due to the unique management and production challenges in the SHPT, additional comparisons were made regarding economic viability and irrigation efficiency. Within the parameters of this study, it is apparent that irrigated corn has an advantage over cotton in both its ability to return carbon to the soil, maintain profitability, and use water resources efficiently. If the agricultural industry is included in CO2 regulation, it would appear that irrigated agricultural producers in the SHPT who have the ability to move between irrigated cotton and corn should be aware of the advantages corn possesses. However, even under changing commodity prices and profitability scenarios, corn still presents a significant advantage over cotton in its ability to reduce atmospheric CO2 by depositing larger amounts of biomass carbon into the soil.Cape and Trade, carbon, farm management, Environmental Economics and Policy, Farm Management, Q18, Q28, Q54, Q56,

Damping of quasi-2D internal wave attractors by rigid-wall friction

The reflection of internal gravity waves at sloping boundaries leads to focusing or defocusing. In closed domains, focusing typically dominates and projects the wave energy onto 'wave attractors'. For small-amplitude internal waves, the projection of energy onto higher wave numbers by geometric focusing can be balanced by viscous dissipation at high wave numbers. Contrary to what was previously suggested, viscous dissipation in interior shear layers may not be sufficient to explain the experiments on wave attractors in the classical quasi-2D trapezoidal laboratory set-ups. Applying standard boundary layer theory, we provide an elaborate description of the viscous dissipation in the interior shear layer, as well as at the rigid boundaries. Our analysis shows that even if the thin lateral Stokes boundary layers consist of no more than 1% of the wall-to-wall distance, dissipation by lateral walls dominates at intermediate wave numbers. Our extended model for the spectrum of 3D wave attractors in equilibrium closes the gap between observations and theory by Hazewinkel et al. (2008)

Waves attractors in rotating fluids: a paradigm for ill-posed Cauchy problems

In the limit of low viscosity, we show that the amplitude of the modes of oscillation of a rotating fluid, namely inertial modes, concentrate along an attractor formed by a periodic orbit of characteristics of the underlying hyperbolic Poincar\'e equation. The dynamics of characteristics is used to elaborate a scenario for the asymptotic behaviour of the eigenmodes and eigenspectrum in the physically relevant r\'egime of very low viscosities which are out of reach numerically. This problem offers a canonical ill-posed Cauchy problem which has applications in other fields.Comment: 4 pages, 5 fi

Occupational Therapists’ Perspectives During the COVID-19 Pandemic

On March 11, 2020, the World Health Organization declared the outbreak of the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) as a global pandemic. Hospitals, nursing homes, and communities worldwide were flooded with patients diagnosed with COVID-19, resulting in the increased need for medical care and treatment by health care professionals, such as occupational therapists. This study analyzes output from a quantitative online survey design, which was created on SurveyMonkey and included 43 questions. Data from the survey were collected, categorized, and measured through the SurveyMonkey computer system and included information gathered from 204 occupational therapists from October 2020 to February 2020. Based on the survey results, occupational therapists believe that their profession has an ethical duty to provide skilled interventions to patients diagnosed with COVID-19. The majority of the occupational therapists were worried about their health and their family’s health as a result of COVID-19. In addition, many of the. therapists reported a close contact and subsequent positive test for COVID-19. Health care administrators and leaders should use the common perspectives among health care workers to guide them as they provide additional support and implement changes during the COVID-19 pandemic. Interventions that could be implemented by health care administrators include self-care training, psychological support, and safe opportunities to engage in meaningful activities

Pengaruh Dosis Pupuk Majemuk NPK + Zn terhadap Pertumbuhan, Produksi, dan Serapan Zn Padi Sawah di Inceptisol, Kebumen

The study was conducted to identify the optimum Zn formula that could be added to dose 300 kg/ha NPK fertilizer with the additional 200 kg/ha urea, organic fertilizer 500 kg/ha and its implication on Zn nutrient uptake and paddy production. Generally, paddy cultivation practices applied macro-synthetic fertilizers without returning crop residues and organic materials as a soil conditioner as well as to provide micronutrients. In addition, the accumulation of P in the soil is pressing the availability of Zn, at neutral pH to alkaline Zn is not available and relatively mobile, when the soil is waterlogged Zn would be settled, and usually Zn is never be fertilized. Moreover, the land is intensively used for the manufacture of bricks and tiles indicate experiencing Zn depletion will cause symptoms on leaves of rice plants reduced toughness, pale green after 2-4 days later on flooded would be krotik and dried up. The research of fertilization innovation on micronutrients were conducted on July 2014 – January 2015 in Green House Agriculture Faculty, the University of Gajah Mada where the planting media of this research was Inceptisol which taken from Kebumen. The treatment were 10 treatments with a dose of NPK Plus Zn 0.25% Zn content ranges from 0% to 2% Zn repeated 3 times using a complete randomized design (CRD). The results showed that the land was given an additional 1.75% Zn has provided the highest Zn content of 0.16 mg/kg with a content of Trubus tissue's Zn 68,38 mg/kg. Whereas in the control treatment had the lowest score is 0.07 mg/kg with Zn content of trubus tissue was 47.85 mg/kg. Not seen an increase in yield due to the additional provision of 2% Zn to the dose of NPK fertilizer plus Zn were given, but the tendency dose of 1.75% Zn gives the highest production yield with and extrapolated enough to the total population reached 9.96 tons/ha while in control was only 3.45 tons/ha
