The Perceived Impact of Faculty-in-Residence Programs on Faculty Development.
Publication Type: Academic Journal
Source(s): Journal of University Teaching & Learning Practice. 2023, Vol. 20 Issue 3, preceding p1-16. 18p.
Abstract: Faculty-in-Residence (FIR) programs, where students interact with faculty outside of the classroom, have shown positive effects on student success. However, most research does not look at FIR programs from a holistic perspective that examines the impac...
Vital rates and their multidecadal trends in the fir-beech old-growth forest of Badínsky prales.
Publication Type: Academic Journal
Source(s): Journal of Forest Science (1212-4834). 2023, Vol. 69 Issue 3, p93-100. 8p.
Abstract: The study aimed to quantify annual mortality and recruitment rates on permanent research plots in the Badínsky prales old-growth forest. The data measured in four stands originate from six censuses, which together cover a 48-year period. The mean annua...
Positive effect of fir-rowan intimate mixture on new forest floor and topsoil following afforestation.
Publication Type: Academic Journal
Source(s): Journal of Forest Science (1212-4834). 2023, Vol. 69 Issue 2, p80-92. 13p.
Abstract: Litterfall of silver fir contributes to development of forest floor similarly like Norway spruce litterfall does. The nutrient return to soil can be intensified by mixing these conifers with other tree species whose effects on soil are positive; our st...
Fractional Gradient Descent-Based Auxiliary Model Algorithm for FIR Models with Missing Data.
Publication Type: Academic Journal
Source(s): Complexity. 2/9/2023, p1-12. 12p.
Abstract: This study proposes a fractional gradient descent (FGD) algorithm for FIR models with missing data. By using the auxiliary model method, the missing data can be obtained. Then, the FGD algorithm is applied to update the parameters of the FIR models. Be...
The increasing drought sensitivity of silver fir (Abies alba Mill.) is evident in the last two decades.
Publication Type: Academic Journal
Source(s): Journal of Forest Science (1212-4834). 2023, Vol. 69 Issue 2, p67-79. 13p.
Abstract: Silver fir (Abies alba Mill.) is still counted among drought-tolerant tree species. However, its ability to cope with the recent extremely dry period has not yet been sufficiently studied. The objective of research was to analyse di- fferences in the c...
Nutrition of silver fir (Abies alba Mill.) and its comparison with Norway spruce (Picea abies L. H. Karst) from the same forest sites in the Czech Republic.
Publication Type: Academic Journal
Source(s): Journal of Forest Science (1212-4834). 2023, Vol. 69 Issue 2, p60-66. 7p.
Abstract: Forests in central Europe were affected by heavy bark beetle outbreak during the years 2014-2022. Decline of Norway spruce brought other species of forest trees, including the fir, to the fore. The nutritional level of silver fir is one of the studied ...
Evaluation of silver fir provenances at 51 years of age in provenance trials in the Předhoří Hrubý Jeseník and Nízký Jeseník Mts. regions, Czech Republic.
Publication Type: Academic Journal
Source(s): Journal of Forest Science (1212-4834). 2023, Vol. 69 Issue 2, p44-59. 16p.
Abstract: In 2021, measurements were done at two international provenance research trials for silver fir originating from the same series of experiments. The investigation was carried out in the location Vítkov and Úsov, where both trials were established. Biome...
Support for silver fir (Abies alba Mill.) in managed forests.
Publication Type: Academic Journal
Source(s): Journal of Forest Science (1212-4834). 2023, Vol. 69 Issue 2, p41-43. 3p.
Abstract: The article focuses on silver fir that had been an important component of a woody species mosaic until the support of its regeneration via silvicultural systems of that time ceased. Topics include examines several changes in management and/or air pollu...
A NOVEL STUDY ON BIO-ECOLOGICAL AND GENETIC CHARACTERISTICS OF ABIES DELAVAYI SUBSP. FANSIPANENSIS DISTRIBUTED AT DIFFERENT ALTITUDES ON FANSIPAN-MOUNTAIN, LAO CAI PROVINCE, VIETNAM.
Publication Type: Academic Journal
Source(s): JAPS: Journal of Animal & Plant Sciences. 10/31/2022, Vol. 32 Issue 5, p1331-1346. 16p.
Abstract: Abies delavayi subsp. fansipanensis is classified as a highly endangered plant in the Vietnam Red Data Book (2007) and a critically endangered species in IUCN red list (2012). This species distributed at the altitudes of 2600-2680 m and 2750-2950 m abo...
