Destructive and non-destructive measurements of residual crop residue and phosphorus effects on growth and composition of herbaceous fallow species in the Sahel
(2001)
Little is known about the residual effects of crop residue (CR) and phosphorus (P) application on the fallow vegetation following repeated cultivation of pearl millet [Pennisetum glaucum (L.) R. Br.] in the Sahel. The objective of this study, therefore, was (i) to measure residual effects of CR, mulched at annual rates of 0, 500, 1000 and 2000 kg CR ha^-1, broadcast P at 0 and 13 kg P ha^-1 and P placement at 0, 1, 3, 5 and 7 kg P ha^-1 on the herbaceous dry matter (HDM) 2 years after the end of the experiment and ...

Decomposition of and nutrient release from ruminant manure on acid sandy soils in the Sahelian zone of Niger, West Africa
(2001)
In ago-pastoral systems of the semi-arid West African Sahel, targeted applications of ruminant manure to the cropland is a widespread practice to maintain soil productivity. However, studies exploring the decomposition and mineralisation processes of manure under farmers' conditions are scarce. The present research in south-west Niger was undertaken to examine the role of micro-organisms and meso-fauna on in situ release rates of nitrogen (N), phosphorus (P) and potassium (K) from cattle and sheep-goat manure collected ...

Unterstützung der Zusammenarbeit auf dem Vorfeld von Verkehrsflughäfen
(Gesamtzentrum für Verkehr Braunschweig e.V. (GZVB), 2001-02-20)
Abstract. Auf Grund der steigenden Nachfrage nach Transportleistungen im Luftverkehr ist es dringend notwendig, die Kapazität der Flughäfen zu erhöhen. Neben der Anzahl der pro Zeiteinheit möglichen Starts und Landungen spielt dabei der Durchsatz auf dem Vorfeld eine entscheidende Rolle. Bewegungen von Boden- und Luftfahrzeugen, die Flüsse von Passagieren, Gepäck und Transportgütern und das Zusammenspiel der Dienstleister auf dem Vorfeld werden von der Verkehrszentrale überwacht und koordiniert. Aufgabenanalysen haben ...

Efficient phosphorus application strategies for increased crop production in sub-Saharan West Africa
(2001)
Comparable data are lacking from the range of environments found in sub-Saharan West Africa to draw more general conclusions about the relative merits of locally available rockphosphate (RockP) in alleviating phosphorus (P) constraints to crop growth. To fill this gap, a multi-factorial field experiment was conducted over 4 years at eight locations in Niger, Burkina Faso and Togo. These ranged in annual rainfall from 510 to 1300 mm. Crops grown were pearl millet (Pennisetum glaucum L.), sorghum (Sorghum bicolor (L.) ...

Intelligent structuring and reducing of association rules with formal concept analysis
(2001)
Association rules are used to investigate large databases. The analyst is usually confronted with large lists of such rules and has to find the most relevant ones for his purpose. Based on results about knowledge representation within the theoretical framework of Formal Concept Analysis, we present relatively small bases for association rules from which all rules can be deduced. We also provide algorithms for their calculation.
