Performance of non-parametric algorithms for spatial mapping of tropical forest structure.
TL;DR: A significant improvement in tropical forest mapping can be achieved by weighting the number of inventory samples against the choice of image layers and the non-parametric algorithms.
Journal ArticleDOI
Effects of Dry or Ensiled Feeds and Protein Percent on Milk Production and Nitrogen Utilization by Lactating Cow
TL;DR: In two 2×2 factorial experiments, 28 cows in first and later lactation were fed rations containing either dry (low nitrogen solubility) or ensiled feeds with low (14%) or high (16%) concentrations of crude protein this paper.

TL;DR: In this article, a combination of classical ground survey of vegetation type and structure, meteorological data, and remote sensing was used to quantify the relationship between vegetation and climate along the sensitive Sahel savanna-desert transition.
Journal ArticleDOI
Effect of Treating Full-Fat Whole Soybeans with Dry Heat or Formaldehyde on Digestibilities of Nitrogen and Polyenoic Acids
TL;DR: In this article, full-fat whole soybeans were treated with dry heat (100 to 200C for 4 or 8h) or formaldehyde (0 to 8g/100g soybean protein).
