Nutrient constraints to tropical agroecosystem productivity in long-term degrading soils by Ngoze, S., Riha, S., Lehmann, Johannes, Kinyangi, James, Verchot, Louis V., Mbugua, D., Pell, A.

“…Soil pools of mineral nitrogen, strongly bound P and plant-available P decreased by 82%, 31% and 36%, and P adsorption capacity increased by 51% after 100 years of continuous cultivation. For the long rainy season (LR), grain yield without fertilizer declined rapidly as cultivation age increased from 0 to 25 years and then gradually declined to a yield of 1.6 Mg ha−1, which was maintained as time under cultivation increased from 60 to 100 years. …”

Utvärdering av en snabbtest för diagnostisering av hypokalcemi hos nötkreatur by Lundgren, Bo

“…Sensitivity, specificity, and predictive values of positive and negative test results were calculated on the basis of Kruuse's Kalcium test results and two different serum calcium levels (1,75 and 2,1 mmol/l). When the time for evaluating the cow-side test was prolonged from 5 to 10 minutes, the specificity increased from 18 % to 100 % and the sensitivity decreased from 100 % to 80 %. …”

Det var en gång – en trädgårdsgång : en litteraturstudie av markmaterial i svenska villaträdgårdar 1850 - 1950 by Haglind, Christina

A simulation model for Rift Valley fever transmission in Kenya by Gachohi, John M.

“…Larva control was implemented at the outbreak onset by increasing basal mortality by 50% or 100% for different periods of time. The model was also used to evaluate integrated control measures, e.g. a combination of low coverage of 25% vaccination and the moderate increase in the larval mortality rate – 50% for 105 days which spanned the entire outbreak period. …”
