Finding Green River in SeaWiFS Satellite Images

Understanding oceanic primary production on a global scale can be enhanced by methods that are able to automatically track phytoplankton blooms from color satellite images. In this paper, unsupervised clustering and rule learning are combined to track green river, a plume of discolored water that forms every March-May offshore along the edge of the west Florida Shelf, from the Sea Viewing Wide ...

Going Green in the Gulf

Several experimental strategies of radiation-induced central nervous system toxicity prevention have recently resulted in encouraging data. The present review summarizes the background for this research and the treatment results. It extends to the perspectives of tissue regeneration strategies, based for example on stem and progenitor cells. Preliminary data suggest a scenario with individually...

Journal of Cell Science is going green.

Open any issue of Journal of Cell Science and you will see that it’s actually already quite ‘green’ because publishing in colour is free and all our content is free to access after 6months (greenOpenAccess). On another level, Journal of Cell Science is not so green.Ok,we do publish the occasional plant paper, but definitely not as many as we should. This is a little odd considering that, ultima...

Going green: phytohormone mimetics for drought rescue.

Plants must respond to environmental changes in order to thrive. Upon sensing drought, plants protect themselves from water loss by a cascade of events, including rapid closure of stomata on their leaf surfaces and gene expression (Cutler et al., 2010). Drought severity and duration may increase due to climate change, potentially triggering significant agricultural and economic losses in cropla...
