THE ABILITY to detect and quantify changes in Earth’s 3 environment using remote sensing is dependent upon sen4 sors providing accurate and consistent measurements over time. 5 A critical step in providing these measurements is establishing 6 confidence and consistency between data from different sen7 sors and putting the data onto a common radiometric scale. 8 However, ensuring that this proce...

English reading strategies and awareness of are great significance for learners to master possess high abilities, but in reality, learners' ability apply is still unsatisfactory. Moreover, this issue seems be a common urgent all as second language. This study taking Chinese university (Hunan University Science Engineering, HUSE) an example, using the Survey Reading Strategies (SORS) measure thr...

This study aimed to evaluate the general performance of preclinical PET scanner (LabPET Solo 4, GE) at CDTN/CNEN using NEMA NU 4-2008 protocol. The parameters include: (i) spatial resolution; (ii) scatter fraction and counts rate performance; (iii) sensitivity (iv) image quality. For evaluation specific simulators a sealed radioactive source Sodium-22 were used. results revealed that NEMA-based...

UNLABELLED The positron emitters (18)F, (68)Ga, (124)I, and (89)Zr are all relevant in small-animal PET. Each of these radionuclides has different positron energies and ranges and a different fraction of single photons emitted. Average positron ranges larger than the intrinsic spatial resolution of the scanner (for (124)I and (68)Ga) will deteriorate the effective spatial resolution and activit...

This paper examines the morphological interaction of possessor agreement and number possessed noun in Turkish Sakha, two distantly related Turkic languages. Of particular focus are third-person posses- sors, where both languages can use regular nominal plural suffix -LAr to index 3PL possessors, (similar many languages) do not allow instances sequence, resulting a three-way ambiguity, e.g. Sakh...

Canada’s in situ oil sands can help meet the global demand. Because of energy-intensive extraction processes, operations also play a critical role meeting carbon budget. The steam ratio (SOR) is an indicator used to measure energy efficiency and assess greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions industry. A low SOR indicates process that more efficient less intensive. In this study, we applied machine learn...
