Download or read book Science and Golf IV written by Eric Thain and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2012-11-12 with total page 870 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The fourth World Scientific Congress of Golf, to be held in St Andrews in July 2002, will bring together all of the world's leading golf researchers. Science and Golf IV will present 90 or so of the best research papers delivered at the Congress, and represents the latest volume in a unique and essential series of scientific studies in golf. The book is organised into four thematic sections, looking at the golfer, golf equipment, the golf course, and the social and economic impact of golf respectively, and addresses key topics such as: * the psychology of golf * biometrics of the swing * new developments in clubs, balls and teaching aids * golf agronomy, irrigation and drainage * the impact of golf on the community * representing the most up-to-date collection of research available. Science and Golf IV is essential reading for all sport scientists and researchers with an interest in golf, all club professionals, and all those working in technical aspects of the golf industry.

Download or read book Sorption and transport of acidic pesticides in variable charge soils written by C. A. Spadotto and published by . This book was released on 1999 with total page 83 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Current models for estimating sorption of acidic compounds as a function of pH are based on some assumptions that may be unfounded. In this study a model of acidic pesticide sorption in soils was developed, considering initially a combination of a strongly acidic pesticide and a variable-charge soil with high clay content. At low pH levels where acidic pesticides exist largely in neutral form, the soil sorbed much more 2,4-D than at high pH levels, where the pesticide is mostly in anionic form. Sorption of the acidic form is expected to decrease with increasing pH because the net negative charge on the soil minerals increases and ion-pair formation effects appear to be negligible. Contribution of 2,4-D anionic-form sorption was small when compared with its overall sorption. Therefore, the further modeling work of this study did not take into account the contribution of ionic interactions and data sets used from the literature were not restricted to variable-charge soils. Dissociation of 2,4-D was not sufficient to explain the variation in Kd as a function of pH. Accessibility of soil organic functional groups able to interact with the pesticide (conformational changes) as a function of organic matter dissociation was proposed to explain the observed differences in sorption. Experimental 2,4-D sorption data adequately fit the model presented, which explained a majority of the variation observed in the experimental data set. The model also accurately estimated Koc values for flumetsulam and sulfentrazone in several soils. Therefore, it is apparent that anionic-form sorption has been overstated, and the effect of organic matter dissociation due to pH changes has been overlloked in previous studies. In addition, incorporating the developed sorption model made possible the improvement of an existing pesticide transport model.
Download or read book Golf Course Management Construction written by James C. Balogh and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2020-10-26 with total page 1234 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Golf Course Management & Construction presents a comprehensive summary and assessment of technical and scientific research on the environmental effects of turfgrass system construction and maintenance. Although the book focuses on golf courses, it also discusses turfgrass systems for residential and commercial lawns, parks, and greenways. The book is an excellent introduction to the concepts of nonpoint source environmental impacts of turfgrass management for turfgrass scientists and specialists, landscape and golf course architects, turfgrass system and golf course developers, golf course superintendents, environmental scientists, and land-use regulators.
