terminal spikelet stage
Terminal Spikelet Stage: The terminal spikelet stage is the final stage in the development of a cereal plant prior to harvest. At this stage, the plant’s spikelets are fully developed and contain all of the grain that will be harvested.
Theoretical Maximum Residue Contribution
Theoretical Maximum Residue Contribution: The theoretical maximum residue contribution (TMRC) is the highest possible concentration of a pesticide residue that could be present in a food product if all of the pesticide were applied to the food crop and none was lost during production or processing.
Thermal Stratification
Thermal Stratification: Thermal stratification is the process by which different layers of water develop different temperatures. This can happen due to differences in density, as warmer water is less dense than cooler water.
Thermocline
Thermocline:A thermocline is a thin layer in a body of water where the temperature changes rapidly with depth. It is usually found in oceans and lakes. The thermocline separates the warm upper layer from the cold deep water. The depth of the thermocline varies from place to place and from season to season. In the summer, the thermocline is shallower than in winter.
