The body mass of animals is directly or indirectly affected by multiple ecological factors. However, the effects factors on are controversial, and a comprehensive study dealing diverse rare. This was performed to determine small rodents in natural deciduous forest located Mt Gariwang, Pyeongchang Jeongseon, South Korea from May 2019 October 2020. We classified into topographic, climatic, cover ...

The book Preteklost in prihodnost ('The past and the future') is sixteenth volume GIS v Sloveniji (GIS Slovenia) series commemorates its 30th anniversary. goal of to present wide variety research findings on geographical information systems Slovenia recent years. Powerful geoinformatic tools precise data facilitate processes phenomena, their modelling. presents project outputs results areas suc...

Some applications such as the autonomous navigation in natural terrain and the automation of map making process require high-level scene descriptions as well as geometrical representation of the natural terrain environments. In this paper, we present methods for building high level terrain descriptions, referred as topographic maps, by extracting terrain features like "peaks", "pits", "ridges",...

Spinal cord infarction is much rarer than cerebral stroke, but its early recognition is important as it may signify serious aortic conditions. The most frequent type is anterior spinal artery syndrome, presenting with bilateral weakness (usually paraparesis), impairment of spinothalamic sensation and preservation of deep sensation. Depending on its level, it may present with respiratory dysfunc...

The Advanced Spaceborne Thermal Emission and Reflection Radiometer (ASTER) on-board the NASA's Terra spacecraft provides along-track digital stereo image data at 15m resolution with a base-height ratio 0.6. Automated stereocorrelation procedure was implemented using the ENVI 4.1 software to derive DEMs with 15m×15m in 43 km long and 50 km wide area using the ASTER stereo images. The cloud areas...

Agricultural systems are increasingly vulnerable to the effects of extreme climate events. Yet strategies to reduce risk and vulnerability have not been greatly explored. Here, we examine the vulnerability of coffee agroforestry systems varying in management intensity (e.g. land use) and topographic features to disturbance related to Hurricane Stan in Chiapas, Mexico—a hurricane categorized by ...

the dedicated satellite mission goce will sense various small mass variations along its path around the earth. here we study the effect of the earth’s topography and atmosphere on goce data. the effects depend on the magnitude of topographic height, and they will therefore vary by region. as the effect of the atmosphere and topography must be removed from the total gravity anomaly prior to geoi...
