Abstract: An ink refill container includes a container main body including an ink storage chamber, an ink outlet-forming portion provided on an end portion of the container main body forming an ink outlet that allows the ink to flow out from the ink storage chamber, and a valve provided in the ink outlet-forming portion configured to openably seal the ink outlet, in which the ink outlet-forming portion includes a positioning portion on an outer side of the ink outlet-forming portion. in which the positioning portion is closer to the container main body than the valve is to the container main body in a central axis direction of the ink outlet, and in which the positioning portion partially abuts against an ink tank when the valve is opened for refilling the ink to the ink tank, to thereby position the valve relative to the ink tank.

Abstract: An apparatus, method, and program capable of predicting an attenuation of electromagnetic waves in an upper airspace of a target area in consideration of the influence of long-term weather changes in future are provided. An apparatus for predicting an attenuation of electromagnetic waves between a radio apparatus located above a target area and a terrestrial surface is provided with a data acquisition section for acquiring past weather data in the target area, and an estimation section for estimating a weather corresponding to a future target year in the upper airspace of the target area based on the past weather data, and estimating an attenuation of electromagnetic waves based on an estimation result of the weather.

Abstract: A method for cultivating a plant includes applying allantoin to a plant; exposing the plant to a temperature of about 30° C. or more for at least about 60 minutes; and growing the plant in a cultivation medium.

Abstract: A method for cultivating a plant includes: applying allantoin to a grapevine; and growing the grapevine in a cultivation medium. Applying the allantoin may be performed at a veraison stage of the grapevine. Allantoin may be applied to a part of the grapevine that is above the cultivation medium at a dose of about 0.05 to 5 g per grapevine, and may be applied by spraying the allantoin on leaves or fruits of the grapevine at a dose of about 0.05 to 5 g per grapevine. The grapevine may be grown at a density of about 1,500 to 10,000 per hectare, and about 0.1 to 13 g/m2 of the allantoin may be applied.
