From Prediction to Prescription: Intelligent Decision Support for Variable Rate Fertilization

Fink, Raymond Keith; Hoskinson, Reed Louis; Hess, John … - 2009

We describe the use of machine learning methods in the analysis of spatial soil fertility, soil physical characteristics, and yield data, with a particular objective of determining local (field- to farm-scale) crop response patterns. For effective prescriptive use, the output of these tools is...

I think that I shall never see {hor_ellipsis} a lovely forestry policy: Land use programs for conservation of forests

Rayner, S.F.; Richards, K.R. - 2008

Forestry programs are frequently invoked as having potential for mitigation of greenhouse gas emissions. Most studies have attempted to quantify the potential impact of forest programs on carbon uptake and the potential costs of such programs. In this paper, we will attempt instead to focus on...

Characteristics of birch trees which influence Yellow-bellied Sapsucker (Sphyrapicus varius varius) feeding activity.

Nelson, Chris - 1991

-bellied Sapsuckers (Sphyrapicus varius varius). Previous studies suggest that sapsuckers preferentially select larger birch trees (>20 cm … dbh) as feeding trees. I tested whether large birch trees were being selected as feeding trees through sapwell frequency … measures. I also collected birch phloem sap samples from 11 different trees to find if variability existed between different …

Ex-vessel Pricing and IFQs: A Strategic Approach

Fell, Harrison - 2010

In this article, intraseasonal fishing is modeled as a differential game between fishers in a total allowable catch (TAC)–regulated fishery with and without individual fishing quotas (IFQs). Heterogeneous harvest values are included by incorporating time-specific harvest costs and a...

THREE ESSAYS ON DIFFERENTIAL GAMES AND RESOURCE ECONOMICS

Ling, Chen - 2010

This dissertation consists of three chapters on the topic of differential games and resource economics. The first chapter extends the envelope theorem to the class of discounted infinite horizon differential games that posses locally differentiable Nash equilibria. The theorems cover both the...
