  1. A new infrared spectroscopy sample presentation unit for measuring feeding quality of maize stover by Montes, J.M., Mirdita, V., Prasad, K., Blümmel, Michael, Melchinger, A.E.

    Published 2009
    “…The main objective of our study was to evaluate a new near infrared (NIR) spectroscopy sample presentation unit for measuring feed quality of maize stover. In this context, we investigated the effect of engineering factors (use of glass interface and packing pressure) on the spectral repeatability and the effect of particle sizes (8 cm, 6 cm, 4 cm, 0.5 cm) on the calibration performance. …”

  4. Quantifying the level of under-detection of Trypanosoma brucei rhodesiense sleeping sickness cases by Odiit, M., Coleman, P.G., Liu, W.C., McDermott, John J., Fèvre, Eric M., Welburn, S.C., Woolhouse, Mark E.J.

    Published 2005
    “…The deterministic (subset) model structured on the possible routes of a SS infection to either diagnosis or death through the health system or out of it, showed that of a total of 73 undetected deaths, 62 (CI 60–64) (85%) entered the health care system but were not diagnosed, and 11 (CI 11–12) died without seeking health care from a recognized health unit. The measure of early to late stage presentation provides a tractable measure to determine the level of rhodesiense SS under-detection and to gauge the effects of interventions aimed at increasing treatment coverage.…”

  5. An annual agricultural production statistics system for Uganda: Design considerations by Muwanga-Zake, E. S. K.

    Published 2009
    “…Further, the characteristics of the agricultural systems in Uganda makes data collection more difficult due to mixed crop and livestock farming systems, continuous planting and harvesting, use of non-standard units of measure of output, few farmers recording their production, and nomadic pastoral livestock production in some areas, among others.…”

  6. Spatial and Temporal Variability of Transplanted Rice At the Field Scale by Dobermann, Achim, Pampolino, Mirasol F., Neue, Heinz-Ulrich

    Published 1995
    “…Increasing the number of samples had more effect on the precision of tiller number estimates than did increasing the size of the sampling unit. To measure tiller number between tillering and PI of rice, sampling units of five hills should be used and samples should be collected from 12 to 19 quadrats. …”

  9. Sortimentsinriktad avverkning by Ranvald, Christer

    Published 2012
    “… • The use of harvest measurement, instead of wood measurement at milis, would improve both planning and foliow-up with more accurate, daily based logging unit related measures. This would refine the decision basis for the planner and make it possible to do yield forecasting…”
