Snow cover trend and hydrological characteristics of the Astore River basin (Western Himalayas) and its comparison to the Hunza basin (Karakoram region) by Tahir, A.A., Chevallier, P., Arnaud, Y., Ashraf, M., Bhatti, Muhammad Tousif

“…More than half of the annual flow in the UIB is contributed by five of its snow and glacier-fed sub-basins including the Astore (Western Himalaya — south latitude of the UIB) and Hunza (Central Karakoram — north latitude of the UIB) River basins. Studying the snow cover, its spatiotemporal change and the hydrological response of these sub-basins is important so as to better managewater resources. …”

Recent progress in cassava agronomy research in Vietnam by Nguyen Huu Hy, Pham, Van Bien, Nguyen The Dang, Thai Phien

“…. - Long term N, P and K trials have shown that the response of cassava to fertilizers is very different for the various types of soils; on the more fertile Latosols the response was not significant even in the fourth year of cropping, but on the grey Podzolic soil in the South and on red-yellow Ferralsols in the north the response of cassava was highly significant already in the first year, with the main response to N and K, respectively. - Short term N, P and K trials showed a high response of cassava to K in Vinh Phu province, as well as a higher income due to fertilizer application in Dong Nai province.…”

Resprouting increases seedling persistence likelihood after fire in a semelparous bamboo species by Cavallero, Laura, Blackhall, Melisa

“…After a massive flowering event that occurred in summer 2010–11 and reached a regional scale in north-western Patagonia, we experimentally tested: 1) the effect of heat (90 °C, 120 °C, 150 °C) and/or ash on germination capacity of C. culeou seeds; and 2) the effect of low to moderate intensity fires on resprouting response of seedlings (<2 yr). …”
