New Plants for Florida: Stone Fruit by Richard L. Jones, Mary Duryea, Berry J. Treat, Wayne Sherman

“…Because of Florida’s warm climate, breeding programs for stone fruit have focused on developing “low-chill” varieties – those that can grow and produce fruit with very few hours of chilling or cold weather in the winter. Florida’s low-chill stone fruit breeding program was initiated in the early 1950s and has succeeded thanks to two plant breeders, Ralph Sharpe and Wayne Sherman. …”

Florida Peach and Nectarine Varieties by Mercy Olmstead, Jose Chaparro, Pete Andersen, Jeff Williamson, James Ferguson

“…Low-chilling cultivars can grow and produce fruit under Florida conditions that are much warmer in winter than in northern states. Furthermore, ripening of these cultivars during April and May ensures an early spring market window for tree-ripe fresh fruit in Florida before peaches and nectarines from other southeastern states and California come to market. …”

ANALYSIS OF OSCILLATING ROD OF HORIZONTAL LOGARITHM PERIOD ANTENNA UNDER WRAP ICE by SONG ZongFeng, WANG ZuoXiang, GUO Wei

“…Analysis of oscillating rod of rigid structure horizontal log-periodic antenna under wrap ice was performed,due to winter weather oscillating rod is bent,somewhere in the north in February 2014.In the finite element software ANSYS platform,to wrap the ice thickness,wrap ice when wind speed is known conditions,a detailed analysis of wrapped ice of bending oscillating rod was performed.The results show that the actual thickness beyond the design wrapped ice thickness.So cause the wrap ice load and wind load area increases,beyond the oscillating rod and its cable carrying capacity,resulting in instability of the oscillating rod bent.According to the oscillating rod bent reason,in order to meet the requirements of heavy ice wrapped,the improved design of the oscillating rod was proposed.…”

Carbon Sequestration and Storage by Gainesville’s Urban Forest by Francisco Escobedo, Jennifer A. Seitz, Wayne Zipperer

“…In addition, decomposing trees and mulch, tree maintenance activities, and improperly placed trees that cause shading in winter can also result in emissions of CO2, so it is important for communities to reduce fossil fuel emissions and manage for and preserve large, healthy trees to maximize the amount of CO2 sequestered by an urban forest. …”

Variations of Scale Height at F-Region Peak Based on Ionosonde Measurements during Solar Maximum over the Crest of Equatorial Ionization Anomaly Region by Yu-Jung Chuo

“…Furthermore, the diurnal variation of Hm exhibits an abnormal peak at presunrise during all the seasons, particularly in winter. This increase is also observed in the F2-layer peak height for the same duration with an upward movement associated with thermospheric wind toward the equator; this upward movement increases the N2/O ratio and Hm, but it causes a decrease in the F2-layer maximum critical frequency during the presunrise period.…”
