Tacking the vector of Xylella fastidiosa: geo-statistical analysis of long-term field observations on host plants influencing the distribution of Phylaenus spumarius nymphs

SummaryCoconut is harvested at bimonthly intervals (six picks per year) in all field experiments carried out by the Coconut Research Institute in Sri Lanka. Because recording of individual picks is costly and time consuming, it is of interest to know whether or not recording can be restricted to fewer picks without prejudicing the results of experiments. Yield data from five long-term field experiments conducted at five different locations showed that the sum of the first, third and fifth picks could provide a good estimate of the sum of six picks. Yield recording can therefore be confined to these three picks and the cost and time of recording in an experiment reduced by 50%. These three picks can conveniently be used to assess treatment effects on total annual yield.Análisis estadístico del rendimiento de coco

Notsukezaki Sand Spit is the longest sand spit in Japan and the wave and morphological characteristics vary along the spit. The main purpose of this study is to investigate the morphological changes of the sand spit for long-term and mid-term field observations and aerial photos. The natural and morphological characteristics are investigated based on the field observations and aerial photos for a long-term period (decades). The regional sediment budget is estimated using the shoreline changes and the result of wave hindcast simulation for five years. Finally, the cross-shore beach processes are examined using the numerical model, CSHORE.

The article describes the causes of occurrence and forms of geomechanical processes manifestation in surrounding coal-rock massif of mine workings supported by anchor support. Based on long-term field observations, six forms of typical deformations of the surrounding massif have been established. Design solutions to strengthen the anchor support or complete reinforcement of damaged sections of mine workings during geomechanical processes of local felling have been developed. They include: installation scheme, substantiation of parameters and list of used reinforcement elements; technology of work, a list of equipment used.
