The Clouds and the Earth’s Radiant Energy System (CERES) project provides observations of Earth’s radiation budget using measurements from CERES instruments onboard the Terra, Aqua and Suomi National Polar-orbiting Partnership (S-NPP) satellites. As the objective is to create a long-term climate data record, it is necessary to periodically reprocess the data in order to incorporate the latest c...

The objective of the present in vitro study was to estimate the adhesion strength of nanometer crystalline hydroxyapatite (HA)-small intestine sub-mucosa (SIS) composites on model implant surfaces. Techniques of thermal denaturation (60 degrees C, 20 min) of SIS were used to enhance the adhesion strength of entheses materials to underlying implants. Specifically, results indicated that the adhe...

In large data recording and warehousing environments it is often advantageous to provide fast approximate answers to queries whenever possible The goal is to provide an estimated response in orders of magnitude less time than the time to compute an exact answer by avoiding or minimizing the number of accesses to the base data This white paper describes the Approximate QUery Answering AQUA Proje...

The measurement of sea surface temperature (SST) is utmost importance in the realm oceanography. increasing utilization satellite data SST research has highlighted crucial need to compare and evaluate various sources. Using iQuam2 situ data, this study aims assess accuracy datasets obtained from three polar-orbiting satellites (AVHRR, Modis-Aqua, Modis-Terra) one geostationary (Himawari-8) Boha...

n engl j med 374;17 nejm.org April 28, 2016 1692 The AQUA Quality Report is a similar source of data, but it remains unclear to us why it should be a more reliable option. Mohr and colleagues mention that the AQUA data set is considered to be “nearly complete.” Therefore, it is itself not perfect, with several limitations due to underreporting and overreporting, as stated in the full AQUA repo...
