• Comparison of extraction methods for DDT residue detection in soil : A dissertation submitted in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Diploma of Applied Science in Lincoln University 

  Chatsantiprapa, Preecha (Lincoln University, 1992)

  The extraction process is an important step in determination of pesticide residues in that substances which are not extracted are not measured. In this study, the efficiency of recovery of DDT residues in soil of two ...

• Seventy years of data from the world’s longest grazed and irrigated pasture trials 

  McDowell, Richard; Moss, R. A.; Gray, C. W.; Smith, L. C.; Sneath, G. (Springer Nature, 2021-02-10)

  Pastures are the most widespread land use, globally. The Winchmore trials were established in 1948–1949 in Canterbury, New Zealand and examined either different rates of phosphorus (P) fertiliser on the same irrigation ...

• Implications of water quality policy on land use: A case study of the approach in New Zealand 

  McDowell, Richard; Pletnyakov, P.; Lim, A.; Salmon, G. (CSIRO publishing, 2020-10-22)

  Achieving good water quality through output controls is difficult. The New Zealand Government recently proposed enforceable bottom lines to protect ecosystem health of 1 mg L⁻¹ dissolved inorganic nitrogen (DIN) and 0.018 ...

• N and P removal from wastewater: a novel approach by developing innovative media augmented by sequencing batch reactor technology (SBR-CBA) : A thesis submitted in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy at Lincoln University 

  Mohajeri, Parsa (Lincoln University, 2020)

  The agriculture sector has many challenges: how to feed a growing global population, and also to mitigate negative impacts on the environment. How can we protect the environment, while producing food and fibre in a sustainable ...

• The influence of rock fragments on field capacity water content in stony soils from hard sandstone alluvium 

  Robertson, Balin B.; Almond, Peter C.; Carrick, S. T.; Penny, V.; Eger, A.; Chau, Henry; Smith, Carol (Elsevier, 2021-05-01)

  Worldwide, rock fragments (RFs) are generally considered inert with respect to bulk soil hydraulic properties, such that all soil water retention properties predicted by national pedotransfer functions (such as S-map) are ...
