Remote sensing application in biomass crop production systems in Oklahoma
(2013-12)
This study was conducted to evaluate the combined effects of nitrogen and cropping systems on biomass yield and quality and to describe the spatial variation of biomass yield, soil carbon and nitrogen within a switchgrass ...
Effects of nutrient sources, harvest frequency, and environmental conditions on switchgrass production and soil properties
(2013-12)
Switchgrass is considered a promising low-input biofuel feedstock. Previous development primarily focused on aboveground production, however, feedstock success will depend on identifying sustainable management practices ...
Scenario optimization approach for designing biomass supply chain
(2012-12)
Scope and Method of Study:
Identification of micrornas and their targets in switchgrass, a model cellulosic biofuel plant species
(2010-12)
Scope and Method of Study:
Net ecosystem exchange of carbon dioxide and water vapor fluxes in switchgrass and high biomass sorghum
(2013-12)
Understanding carbon and water dynamics of switchgrass (Panicum virgatum L.) and high biomass sorghum ((Sorghum bicolor L. Moench) ecosystems is crucial as the acreage of these feedstocks is expanding for cellulosic biofuels. ...
Production economics of potential perennial and annual biomass feedstocks
(2012-05)
Scope and Method of Study: The first essay determines the lowest cost lignocellulosic biomass feedstock production system for western Oklahoma from among seven alternatives at each of two locations. Field experiments were ...
Study of the diversity, inbreeding potential, and sward heritability of switchgrass
(2011-12)
Scope and Method of Study: Study the diversity of 56 genotypes of switchgrass from different regions of the US using AFLP. Study the heritability of two populations of Switchgrass (SL-93 C2 and NL-94 C2 ) in swards. ...
Experimental investigation and simulation of a fluidized-bed gasifier using switchgrass
(2013-12)
The overall goal of this research was to improve and optimize yield and composition of syngas generated from biomass gasification using an autothermal lab-scale fluidized-bed gasifier, and to develop a biomass gasification ...
Screening switchgrass (Panicum virgatum L.) for water stress tolerance
(2012-05)
Scope and Method of Study: Switchgrass can benefit from enhanced water stress tolerance as it will be grown in marginal areas. Whole plant and in vitro culture techniques can help to improve switchgrass biomass production ...
