The knowledge of spatial variability soil properties is useful in the rational use of inputs, as in the site specific application of lime and fertilizer. The objective of this work was to map and evaluate the spatial variability of the…

Abstract. This paper presents a method to measure the lesions originated by the Cercospora arachidicola and Cercosporidium personatum fungi, which cause, respectively, the early and late leaf spots in peanut plants. The proposed method is based on a modified version…

Abstract. This paper presents a new method based on digital image processing techniques such as color transformations and mathematical morphology, as well as on some specialist knowledge, to provide estimates for the lengths of rice panicles that have been removed…

Assessment of student knowledge in Learning Management Systems such as Moodle is mostly conducted using close-ended questions (e.g. mul­tiple-choice) whose answers are straightforward to grade without human intervention. FILL-IN-THE-BLANK tests are usually more challenging since they require test-takers to recall…

The process of water erosion occurs in watersheds throughout the world and it is strongly affected by anthropogenic influences. Thus, the knowledge of these processes is extremely necessary for planning of conservation efforts. This study was performed in an experimental…

This thesis examines the transmission of intergenerational cultural knowledge on eastern James Bay Cree lands. Geospatial technologies and the representation of Cree knowledge are explored, with emphasis on the geoweb. A geoweb with two parts, old and new, is theorized…

A significant gap exists between evidence-based practice (EBP) and actual occupational therapy (OT) practice in the management of a disabling post-stroke impairment - unilateral spatial neglect (USN). With improved patient outcomes linked to the use of best practices, it is…
