1xbet online games login projects
The Kansas 1xbet online games login Institute uses new approaches to sustainable food and agriculture production. These interdisciplinary research projects integrate information and data from the KSU-Testing Ag Performance Solutions (TAPS) Program.
The KSU-TAPS program is an innovative, “citizen-science” approach that combines interactive learning with interdisciplinary research. The KSU-TAPS program invites Kansas producers to join a farm-management competition where they 1xbet online games login make real-time decisions which 1xbet online games login be implemented in replicated plots on the same field. The competition is structured to enable direct comparison and evaluation of each team’s production, efficiency, and economic outcomes.
Wildcat Hackathon: Innovative Solutions for Sustainable 1xbet online games login Use in Kansas
This project 1xbet online games login host a campus-wide, interdisciplinary hackathon leveraging data from the KSU-TAPS platform. The hackathon 1xbet online games login be opened to all K-State students, who 1xbet online games login form teams to create the first ever campus-wide and water-centric competition of this nature. Participants in the hackathon 1xbet online games login be challenged to create innovative solutions that translate field observations into actionable decisions, with the aim of enhancing sustainable water management and conservation practices.

Creation of Novel Use Case Studies Based on Actual TAPS 1xbet online games login
This project 1xbet online games login create new and novel case studies based on real-life examples from KSU-TAPS program participants. These case studies 1xbet online games login engage learners in evaluating how they would make management decisions on their “farm.” Agronomic, weather, economic, and social aspects of each “case” 1xbet online games login be incorporated into to narrative to deepen the learning experience. Each “case” can be integrated into existing courses at the secondary and post-secondary levels to strengthen key academic skills.

Bilingual Initiatives to Address Pressing 1xbet online games login Sustainability Challenges
1xbet online games login Abstract: The project team 1xbet online games login conduct research and engage with the Spanish-speaking farming communities in Garden City and Dodge Kansas respectively—by conducting interviews and gathering data to unveil critical water needs and issues in the region, write a report about the findings and the specific water sustainability needs in the farming community, and publish an article. This 1xbet online games login be the base to develop a new interdisciplinary course, “Water in the Americas”, taught in Spanish, that 1xbet online games login delve into the complexities of sustainable water management from Western Kansas to Southern Chile. This transformative course 1xbet online games login equip students with the knowledge and skills to address water challenges in Kansas and beyond, fostering bilingual education, promoting cross-cultural understanding, and empowering future leaders in sustainable water management.

Informing an environmental live cycle assessment (LCA) using TAPS program 1xbet online games login
This project 1xbet online games login use KSU-TAPS program data to inform environmental life cycle assessment (LCA) in both research and education activities. LCA is a systems-thinking framework through which environmental impacts of a product system throughout its lifetime are quantified. KSU-TAPS data detailing water, fertilizer, and other chemical inputs 1xbet online games login be used to develop robust inventory models and uncertainty analyses. A key focus of inventory development 1xbet online games login be to inform regional water footprint analysis (using both irrigation and soil moisture data), which 1xbet online games login support future research to trace water and other environmental flows through beef, bioenergy, and other corn-based production systems.

Refining soil moisture estimation by integrating satellite 1xbet online games login with local irrigation practices
This interdisciplinary research aims to refine soil moisture estimation by integrating satellite data with local irrigation practices. The project 1xbet online games login employ advanced statistical and machine learning techniques, including random forests and neural networks, to downscale the passive microwave SMAP radiometric data with higher-resolution ground-based observations and ancillary data, such as surface temperature, precipitation, evapotranspiration, topography, land cover, and soil characteristics. The team 1xbet online games login integrate irrigation data from the KSU-TAPS project to allow for the calibration and validation of the downscaling models, ensuring they accurately reflect the actual soil moisture dynamics influenced by human activities. By combining expertise from remote sensing, agronomy, hydrology, and data science, the project aims to produce highly accurate soil moisture maps at both higher spatial and temporal resolutions.
