Land cover modification geoindicator applied in a tropical coastal environment.
Environmental changes due to natural processes and anthropic modifications can be characterized by the degree of land cover modification and its environmental implications over time. The main goal of the present study was to propose and apply a land cover modification geoindicator in order to assess the environmental condition of the territory per landscape units. It was designed to interpret d...
متن کاملSustained attention under thermal stress.
This article reviews the effects of the thermal environment on vigilance. A reinterpretation of early and contemporary studies contradicts the existing notion that vigilance is facilitated in ambient temperatures that exceed a comfortable level. Rather, performance is degraded as thermal homeostasis of the observer is disturbed. Significant breakdown in capability becomes manifest with measurab...
متن کاملHeuristic Search Applied to Abstract Combat Games
Creating strong AI forces in military war simulations or RTS video games poses many challenges including partially observable states, a possibly large number of agents and actions, and simultaneous concurrent move execution. In this paper we consider a tactical sub-problem that needs to be addressed on the way to strong computer generated forces: abstract combat games in which a small number of...
متن کاملMeasures to combat H7N9 virus infection in China: live poultry purchasing habits, poultry handling, and living conditions increase the risk of exposure to contaminated environments.
From March 31 to May 31, 2013, 132 cases of humans were infected with the H7N9 avian influenza virus, 39 of which resulted in death in China, which sparked global concerns about public health. Fortunately, no new case was reported in China since May 8, which seems like to make it step into a stable stage, and the emergency response to the event launched by Shanghai, Jiangsu, Zhejiang, Anhui, Ji...
متن کاملEffect of Extrusion of Corn on Nutrient Digestibility, Metabolizable Energy, and Performance in Poultry under Tropical Environment
Two experiments were conducted to determine the effect of extrusion of corn on nutrient digestibility, metabolizable energy and performance in poultry under tropical environment. In experiment 1, twenty one male broilers were allotted in an individual metabolic cage and fed mash diets with: 1) basal diet containing 45.7% dextrose; 2) 40% substitution of normal corn for dextrose and 3) 40% subst...
