Greenhouse: The greenhouse
facilities available to Dr. Yuceer in the Department of Forestry
include a 32 ft x 104 ft greenhouse with three independent bays,
each with QCOM controls, drip pads, gas heaters, air conditioning
(one bay), and sodium arc lamps. This greenhouse has been covered
with Exolite material, and the electrical control system is supported
by an emergency/standby 35 kw generator to avoid loss of climatic
control during failure of outside electrical service. |
