Cotton Production ModelARSA new process-based cotton model, CPM, has been developed to simulate the growth and development of upland cotton (Gossypium hirsutum L.) throughout the growing season with minimal data input. CPM predicts final cotton yield for any combination of soil, weather, cultivar and sequence of management actions. |

Nearest Neighbor Soil Water Retention EstimatorHydrology and Remote Sensing Laboratory
The k-nearest neighbor (k-NN) technique is a non-parametric technique that can be used to make predictions of discrete (class-type) as well as continuous variables. The k-NN technique and many of its derivatives belong to the group of .lazy learning algorithms.. It is .lazy., as it passively stores the development data set until the time of application; all calculations are performed only when estimations need to be generated. |

A relatively simple process-based simulation is used to track net flows of carbon dioxide, methane and nitrous oxide emissions through the production and use of feeds and the handling of manure. A carbon footprint is then calculated, which includes both primary and secondary emissions. Primary emissions occur during product |
