    Notes: Historically, the main objective of water resources development has been economic efficiency, and the technique for its evaluation has been benefit-cost analysis. Gradually other objectives have emerged, and these in order of their emergence are regional income redistribution, environmental quality and social well-being. These multi-objectives have given rise to multifarious problems, and have made the planning process much more complex than ever before. The different objectives are not mutually exclusive, and, hence, contributions to one can only be made at the expense of others. Trade-off studies between different objectives are difficult to make. It is suggested that one way to overcome this difficulty could be to design a system to perform optimally in terms of one objective, subject to a specified level of performance of the other, which in effect becomes a constraint. The paper also discusses the pros and cons of the desirability of public participation in our decision-making processes, and the necessity of developing social sciences models to aid water planning and management.

    SOCIOLOGICAL ASPECTS OF WATER DEVELOPMENT (1971)
    Oxford, UK : Blackwell Publishing Ltd
    Journal of the American Water Resources Association 7 (1971), S. 0

    Notes: Decisions to develop water resources systems so far have been primarily taken on the basis of engineering and economic feasibilities. Very rarely, if ever, sociological feasibility has been considered, except in a very broad sense. Planning is for the people, and it should improve the quality of life. Hence, it is argued that water resources decisions ought to be primarily social ones, and that the success or failure of any resource development should not only be judged by its techno-economic excellence but also by its impact on people.Water resources planning process is discussed, and the difficulties associated with the evaluation of sociological feasibility of projects are enumerated. The social consequences of water development projects are traced through planning, construction, operation and management impacts. Finally, it is suggested that the foremost factor in the success of any water management program is the public understanding and acceptance of that program.

    Herbicidal Effects on Water Uptake of Seeds of Selected Weed Species (1970)
    Oxford, UK : Blackwell Publishing Ltd
    Physiologia plantarum 23 (1970), S. 0 
    Details

    Topics: Biology
    Notes: Seeds of yellow foxtail, johnsongrass, pigweed and quackgrass were investigated to determine the effects of certain herbicides on water uptake by these species. Seeds of johnsongrass showed slight increase in water uptake over the 20-h period when treated with 1, 5, 10, and 500 mg/1 of 2,4-D. Tordon caused a most pronounced increase in water uptake at 0.1 and 1 mg/l as compared with the controls. Johnsongrass gave indications of either increases or decreases in water uptake when treated with herbicides during the 20-h period, but showed no effects during the 10-h period. Dormant seeds of yellow foxtail indicated an enhancement in water uptake at all 2,4-D concentrations during the 20 h period. The effects which the different herbicides had upon the uptake of water in yellow foxtail seeds seemed to be directly proportional to increase in imbibition time. In all cases, more water was imbibed after 20 h over that observed at 10 h. During the 10-h imbibition period, pigweed seeds treated with 2,4-D was noted to have a slight stimulating effect on water uptake at all concentrations employed except 5 mg/l, which indicated a depressing effect. It was also observed that 2,4-D caused a significant stimulating effect on water uptake of pigweed seeds over the 20-h period as compared with the controls. A stimulation in the total quantity of water imbibed after 20 h was noted at dacthal concentrations below 100 mg/l whereas at the 500 mg/l, a slight depression in water imbibition was observed. At dalapon concentrations of 1 to 100 mg/l, a marked stimulation in total water imbibed by quackgrass seeds was shown during the 10-h period.

    Germination Promotion of Loblolly Pine and Baldcypress Seeds by Stratification and Chemical Treatments (1972)
    Oxford, UK : Blackwell Publishing Ltd
    Physiologia plantarum 27 (1972), S. 0 
    Details
    ISSN: 1399-3054
    Source: Blackwell Publishing Journal Backfiles 1879-2005
    Topics: Biology
    Notes: The effects of 4 chemicals on the germination promotion of stratified and unstratified seeds of loblolly pine (Pinus taeda) and baldcypress (Taxodium distichum) were studied. The chemicals used were gibberellic acid, kinetin, potassium nitrate and thiourea, each at 3 different concentrations.Stratification promoted the germination of both seed species. Certain concentrations of gibberellic acid, potassium nitrate and thiourea improved the germination of unstratified loblolly pine and baldcypress seeds while kinetin had no stimulatory effect.All 4 chemicals at specific concentrations promoted the germination of loblolly pine seeds stratified for a short period of time. Considering both speed and completeness of germination, best results were obtained when 21-day stratified seeds were treated with either gibberellic acid (100 mg/1) or kinetin (10 mg/1). In baldcypress, on the other hand, none of these chemicals had any stimulatory effect on the germination of stratified seeds. Germination of both species of seeds was either partially or completely inhibited by the highest concentration of thiourea (30,000 mg/1) used.

    Changes in Endogenous Growth Kegulators in Loblolly Pine Seeds During the Process of Stratification and Germination (1973)
    Oxford, UK : Blackwell Publishing Ltd
    Physiologia plantarum 28 (1973), S. 0

    Topics: Biology
    Notes: The seeds of loblolly pine (Pirns taeda L.) were cold-stratified for 0, 14, 28, 42, and 56 days. Endogenous growth regulators were extracted from these seeds, and also from the germinating and the 28-day warm stratified seeds. Partially purified extracts were separated on chromatographic paper. The chromatograms were cut into 10 equal segments, and these were tested for biological activity using three different btoassays.The results indicated that the unstratified seeds and those stratified up to a period of 28 days contained very little or no growth promoter (GA-like substances), and a relatively high concentration of an inhibitor (presumably abscisic acid), Following 42-day stratification, the promoter concentration gradually increased while the inhibitor level fell almost to zero. A high level of promoter but no inhibitor was detected in germinating seeds.No auxin-like activity was noted in the unstratified seeds. This activity slowly increased up to a period of 28 days and remained at this level for the subsequent stratification periods. However, the activity greatly increased in the germinating seeds.Very little changes in the levels of growth regulators were noted in warm-stratified seeds as compared to the unstrati-fied controls.
