Profitable Canola Production In The Great Southern And Lakes District, Paul Carmody, Ashley Herbert Feb 2001

Profitable Canola Production In The Great Southern And Lakes District, Paul Carmody, Ashley Herbert

Bulletins 4000 -

The Canola industry has rapidly grown with a 10 fold increase in area sown in Western Australia over the four years from 1996-99.

The driving force behind this increase in area can be attributed to the successful adoption of weed control technology in Triazine Tolerant Canola.

By knowing the model of the limiting factors, which are usually; weed control, fertiliser practices, blackleg management, variety selection, seeding dates, seeding depths, insect control and swathing, we can make the right decisions and achieve the targeted profit.

To produce yield to potential, all factors need to be optimised, otherwise yields will be decreased …

Implementing An Icc Printer Profile Visualization Software, Stone Xianfeng Zhao Feb 2001

Implementing An Icc Printer Profile Visualization Software, Stone Xianfeng Zhao

Theses

Device color gamut plays a crucial role in ICC-based color management systems. Accurately visualizing a device's gamut boundary is important in the analysis of color conversion and gamut mapping. ICC profiles contain all the information which can be used to better understand the capabilities of the device. This thesis project has implemented a printer profile visualization software. The project uses A2B 1 tag in a printer profile as gamut data source, then renders gamut of device the profile represents in CIELAB space with a convex hull algorithm. Gamut can be viewed interactively from any view points. The software also gets …

Charge Exchange Contribution To The Decay Of The Ring Current, Measured By Energetic Neutral Atoms (Enas), A. M. Jorgensen, M. G. Henderson, E. C. Roelof, G. D. Reeves, Harlan E. Spence Feb 2001

Charge Exchange Contribution To The Decay Of The Ring Current, Measured By Energetic Neutral Atoms (Enas), A. M. Jorgensen, M. G. Henderson, E. C. Roelof, G. D. Reeves, Harlan E. Spence

Physics & Astronomy

In this paper we calculate the contribution of charge exchange to the decay of the ring current. Past works have suggested that charge exchange of ring current protons is primarily responsible for the decay of the ring current during the late recovery phase, but there is still much debate about the fast decay of the early recovery phase. We use energetic neutral atom (ENA) measurements from Polar to calculate the total ENA energy escape. To get the total ENA escape we apply a forward modeling technique, and to estimate the total ring current energy escape we use the Dessler-Parker-Sckopke relationship. …


Polarization Effects In Quantum Coherences Probed By Two-Color, Resonant Four-Wave Mixing In The Time Domain, Elizabeth Mccormack, E. Sarajlic Feb 2001

Polarization Effects In Quantum Coherences Probed By Two-Color, Resonant Four-Wave Mixing In The Time Domain, Elizabeth Mccormack, E. Sarajlic

Physics Faculty Research and Scholarship

We present a combined theoretical and experimental study of the effects of laser polarization on optical coherences produced in two-color, resonant four-wave mixing (TC-RFWM). A time-dependent model incorporating diagrammatic perturbation theory and spherical tensor formalism is used to interpret observations of quantum beats due to molecular hyperfine structure in time-resolved TC-RFWM in nitric oxide. Good agreement is found between the model and the observed time-resolved signals for two distinct excitation schemes and a variety of polarization configurations including both polarization and population gratings. Measured hyperfine energy intervals are reported for the X(2)Pi (1/2) , v = 0 ground state and …


A Strategic Marketing Analysis Of The Western Australian Olive Industry, Francis D'Emden Feb 2001

A Strategic Marketing Analysis Of The Western Australian Olive Industry, Francis D'Emden

Horticulture published reports

A recent survey of Western Australian olive growers has revealed the rapid expansion of the State's Olive Industry, with at least 1.7 million olive trees to be planted in the next two to four years in Western Australia. NSW and SA are currently the dominant producers with around 64% of olive trees planted in those States.

This analysis concentrates on the olive oil market, as most groves have been planted to varieties suited to olive oil production. Approximately 4% of trees are table varieties, most of which have been planted amongst groves of predominantly oil or dual-purpose varieties.

Pi Words, Howard Bergerson, Michael Keith Feb 2001

Pi Words, Howard Bergerson, Michael Keith

Word Ways

The number pi (= 3.14159265358979323846264338327950288...) is fundamental to the very fabric of the universe, so it's not surprising to encounter it in a number of logological contexts. In this article we explore families of words having a connection with the value of pi. Unless noted, all words are in Webster's Third Unabridged.

Sustainable Tourism Plan For The Houtman Abrolhos Islands, Fisheries Western Australia

Fisheries Management Papers

The Abrolhos coral reefs are the southernmost living reefs in the Indian Ocean. They have a unique assemblage of tropical species of fish, reef corals and other invertebrates, which live in close association with temperate species, particularly of algae, and species endemic to Western Australia. The Abrolhos is the centre of the fishery for the commercially valuable western rock lobster (Panulirus cygnus). Terrestrial flora and fauna of the Abrolhos are relict and provide important reference areas on ecological interactions. Virtually all the islands of the Abrolhos archipelago have sea bird nesting and breeding areas, and populations of some species of …


Knotted Word Worms, Michael Keith Feb 2001

Knotted Word Worms, Michael Keith

Word Ways

In an article in the August 1993 Word Ways, Ross Eckler introduced the concept of a word worm, an object defined on the three-dimensional lattice of integer-valued points. Each point on this lattice has 26 neighbors which can be reached by a single orthogonal or diagonal step. These 26 stepping directions are identified with the 26 letters of the alphabet as shown in Figure 1. This positive X direction is defined by the N-step, the positive Y direction, by the K-step, and the positive Z direction, by the E step.

Surface Water Quality - 2000 Hillsborough County, Florida Raw Data Summary, Tom Cardinale Feb 2001

Surface Water Quality - 2000 Hillsborough County, Florida Raw Data Summary, Tom Cardinale

Reports

The Environmental Protection Commission of Hillsborough County (EPC) is charged with the responsibility of monitoring the quality of surface water in the county. The data and information collected enables staff to determine pollution status and trends throughout Tampa Bay and our tributaries. The data is also widely distributed to other government agencies, academia, the local scientific community and the general public. EPC's routine monthly surface water monitoring began in January of 1972, with the Tampa Bay estuary and was expanded to major rivers and streams in 1973. This report is a tabulation of the raw data produced on surface water …


Religion, Rationality, And Special Treatment, Jane Rutherford Feb 2001

Religion, Rationality, And Special Treatment, Jane Rutherford

William & Mary Bill of Rights Journal

Religion has always played a major role in American society, both politically and socially. Its influence on the Constitution is expressed in the Establishment and Free Exercise Clauses. Why is religion given special treatment by the Constitution? In this Article, Professor Jane Rutherford makes a structural argument for religious liberty. Rutherford posits that religion is treated differently not because of the content of its views, but because of the various other functions it serves, such as providing voices for outsiders and advancing non-market values. Rutherford concludes that we should return to more serious enforcement of the Establishment and Free Exercise …


Discrepancy Convergence For The Drunkard's Walk On The Sphere, Francis E. Su Feb 2001

Discrepancy Convergence For The Drunkard's Walk On The Sphere, Francis E. Su

All HMC Faculty Publications and Research

We analyze the drunkard's walk on the unit sphere with step size θ and show that the walk converges in order C/sin2(θ) steps in the discrepancy metric (C a constant). This is an application of techniques we develop for bounding the discrepancy of random walks on Gelfand pairs generated by bi-invariant measures. In such cases, Fourier analysis on the acting group admits tractable computations involving spherical functions. We advocate the use of discrepancy as a metric on probabilities for state spaces with isometric group actions.


Particle Size Determination: An Undergraduate Lab In Mie Scattering, I. Weiner '01, M. Rust '01, Thomas D. Donnelly Feb 2001

Particle Size Determination: An Undergraduate Lab In Mie Scattering, I. Weiner '01, M. Rust '01, Thomas D. Donnelly

All HMC Faculty Publications and Research

A technique for determining the size of microscopic spherical particles using light scattering is presented as an undergraduate physics lab. Scatterer size is determined from angular scattering distribution measurements of laser light scattered from a dilute suspension of latex spheres with diameters of 4.99±0.05 and 6.038±0.045 μm. Previous experiments of this type used approximate theoretical corrections and required the construction of specialized sample cells to minimize complicating effects. As a significant improvement to these, we generate angular scattering distributions from Mie theory and, using an accurate numerical procedure, correct these distributions for Snell’s law and foreshortening effects. Scatterer size …
