Biological activity alters the ability of sea spray to seed clouds
2013-04-22 23:36:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed
ScienceDaily: Ocean biology alters the chemical composition of sea spray in ways that influence its ability to form clouds over the ocean. That's the conclusion of a team of scientists using a new approach to study tiny atmospheric particles called aerosols that can influence climate by absorbing or reflecting sunlight and seeding clouds. By engineering breaking waves of natural ocean water under purified air in the lab, they were able to isolate and analyze aerosols from the spray and determine how life within...

Seed Science: Seed Germination
2013-04-19 21:55:00| Corn & Soybean Digest
Alex Johnson, CCA, Agronomist Think about what one single seed does for you as a farmer. A single corn seed that weighs 1/100th of an ounce has the ability to be placed in dirt, germinate, grow into a plant 7-10+ ft. tall and multiply the grain yield 500 fold. No manmade machine possesses an equivalent ability to perform a comparable feat. read more

11 Considerations When Deciding on Fungicide Seed Treatment
2013-04-19 21:09:00| Corn & Soybean Digest
Source: South Dakota State University Fungicide seed treatments protect seedlings from both seed-borne pathogens as well as soil-borne pathogens, says Emmanuel Byamukama, SDSU Extension Plant Pathologist. "Seed-borne pathogens can be those inhabiting the seed surface or those in the interior of the seed. Soil-borne pathogens survive in the soil and when they get in contact with the seed or seedling and the conditions are conducive, the infection process is initiated," he says. read more
