Physics and Astronomy Faculty Publications and Presentations
Detection of a stochastic background of gravitational waves is likely to occur in the next few years. Beyond searches for the isotropic component of a stochastic gravitational-wave background, there have been various mapping methods proposed to target anisotropic backgrounds. Some of these methods have been applied to data taken by the Laser Interferometer Gravitational-wave Observatory (LIGO) and Virgo. Specifically, these directional searches have focused on mapping the intensity of the signal on the sky via maximum-likelihood solutions. We compare this intensity mapping approach to a previously proposed, but never employed, amplitude-phase mapping method to understand whether this latter approach may …

Dissertations and Theses
Extreme heat and wildfire events are becoming more prolific and exacerbated by climate change, carrying significant implications for environmental and social systems. Residential buildings play a central role in protecting people from heat and pollutant exposure during extreme weather events, but the level of protection varies dramatically depending on building energy efficiency and technology availability. Low-income and communities of color have higher energy burdens compared to affluent populations, and underserved communities often do not have financial resources for, or access to, advanced building technologies. This dissertation explores the impacts of extreme heat and wildfire on residential buildings, focused specifically on …

It also presents an analysis of the effects of these errors on the false track. The effectiveness of the false track is further analyzed through the confrontation scenario between the rectangular front formation of a certain type of equipment and networked radars.

Habitat, Phenology, And Seed Studies Of Citrullus Colocynthis In Lut Desert, Iran, Nastaran Kahrom, Mohammad Farzam, Mansour Mesdaghi
IGC Proceedings (1993-2023)
Colocynth is one of the major medicinal plants that naturally grows in deserts of Middle East and North Africa. Extending cultivation of this species is useful for sand dune fixation and for making incomes for the needy inhabitants. Despite of numerous studies on seed germination, there are still debates on best method of seed dormancy breaking for colocynth. Moreover, seed morphology, phonological stages, and habitat conditions of this species are not fully studied. In a flat plain of Gonabad, located at the edge Lut desert, we established line transects of 200 m and plots of 4×4 m, where vegetation parameters, …

Effect Of Winter Grazing Management Of Stockpiled Native Pastures Of Basaltic Soils Of Uruguay On Daily Gains Of Heifers, G. Pigurina, R. Castells, G. Reyes, E. J. Berretta
IGC Proceedings (1993-2023)
The effect of three grazing systems of fall stockpiled native pastures on the winter gains of 66 Hereford heifers (135 kg) was studied. Treatments were: continuos grazing (CG); (C7) the plot was divided in 12 and each was grazed for 7 days and (C28), the plot was divided in 3 and each were grazed for 28 days. Heifers were weighed every 14 days and grazing behaviour was recorded. Stockpiled HM was greater (P< 0.05) in C7 and C28 than in CG (988, 912, and 604 kg DM/ha, respectively). Herbage allowance (HA) was greater (P< 0.01) in CG followed by C28 and C7 (11.7, 6.6 and 5.9 kg DM/100 kg LW, respectively). Post-grazing HM was greater (P0.05) in all pastures (CP 10.2%, NDF 71.2%, ADF 41.3% and ash 14.4%). Final LW of heifers were similar (P> 0.05) (167, 162 and 160 kg for CG, C7 and C28, respectively). A very mild winter favoured exceptional gains which tended to be higher in CG (0.353 …

Influence Of Stocking Rate And Grazing System On Lamb Performance Of Mixed Oat And Ryegrass Swards In Uruguay, Fabio Montossi, R. San Julián, C. Arocena, A. Dighiero
IGC Proceedings (1993-2023)
An experiment was conducted at INIA-Tacuarembó Research Station (Uruguay) during 15 June to 4 October 1998, using a Avena Sativa (oat) and Lolium multiflorum (ryegrass) sward to examine the effect of stocking rate (SR; 25 and 35 lambs/ha) and grazing system (GS; strip and 7 days rotational grazing) on sward and lamb performance. SR had a significant effect on lamb performance, being higher the liveweight gain (LWG; 120 vs 98 g/a/d, P < 0.01), hot carcass weight (HCW; 17.7 vs 16.1 kg/a, P < 0.05) and carcass fat cover (GR; 12 vs 8 mm, P < 0.01) of those lambs managed at the lower SR. At the high SR, lambs increased grazing time (405 vs 376 min., P < 0.05). SG did not affect lamb performance, but strip GS reduces lamb grazing time (367 vs 414 min., P < 0.01) and biting rates (22 vs 24 bites/lamb/min., P < 0.01). Post grazing sward height (SH) was highly associated with LWG (LW = - 101,7 + 32.7 SH – 1.49 SH2, R2 = 0.66). This experiment demonstrated that: (a) the productive potential of ryegrass and oat swards to produce high quality …

Lamb Stocking, Grazing System And Supplementation Effects On Triticale And Ryegrass Swards Performance In Uruguay, Fabio Montossi, R. San Julián, D. Correa, F. Gonzales, V. Porcile
IGC Proceedings (1993-2023)
An experiment was carried out from 3 of July to 22 of October 1998, using a Lolium multiflorum Lom. (ryegrass) and Triticosecale Wittmack (triticale) sward grazed by lambs, to examine the effect of stocking rate (SR; 25 and 35 lambs/ha), grazing system (GS; strip and 7 days rotational grazing) and supplementation (S; with or without) on sward structure, production, composition and nutritive value. SR affected significantly pre and post grazing herbage mass and sward height, being higher at the lower SR (3211 vs 2832 kg DM ha-1, P < 0.01; 2443 vs 1939 kg DM ha-1, P < 0.01; 19 vs 17 cm, P < 0.01 and 10 vs 8 cm, P < 0.01 respectively), increasing, at the high SR, the proportions of the ryegrass green leaf component, particularly in the uppermost layers of the sward canopy. In comparison with 7 days rotational GS, strip GS resulted in higher post grazing herbage mass, sward height and nutritive value (2387 vs 1996 DM ha-1, P < 0.01; 10 vs 9 cm, P …

Productivity And Composition Of Two Improved Native Pastures Under Different Grazing Managements In Uruguay, D. F. Risso, E. J. Berretta, G. Carracelas
IGC Proceedings (1993-2023)
Two improved native pastures were established by phosphoric (P) fertilisation and oversowing of: white clover (Trifolium repens) mixed with birdsfoot trefoil (Lotus corniculatus) (TbL) and annual lotus (Lotus subbiflorus) (Rin). Such pastures were evaluated during 5 years with steers at two stocking rates (High and Low) and two grazing managements (Rotational and Alternate). Presence of legumes was high and botanical changes were favourable in both pastures that evidenced good persistence. Daily liveweight gains of steers and total animal production were high in both pastures, but significantly (P≤ 0.05) higher in TbL. No significant differences …

Most people think of soapberry bugs as little more than a nuisance, if they think of them at all. Found across much of the southeastern United States, the oblong insect is harmless to humans and likes to hang out on plants native to the soapberry family, hence its straightforward name.
