A multilayer soil model is presented for improved estimation of soil moisture content using the first-order small perturbation method (SPM) applied to measurements of radar backscattering coefficient. The total reflection coefficient of the natural bare soil including volume scattering contribution is obtained using the multilayer model. The surface reflection terms in SPM model are replaced by...

We modify W. Vickrey's (1961, J. Finance 16, 8 37) mechanism for call markets by introducing the participation stage and study the efficiency properties of the modified mechanism. We provide sufficient conditions under which the modified Vickrey double auction achieves full efficiency. In addition, we prove that the modified Vickrey double auction achieves asymptotic efficiency even when full e...

in this paper we obtain coefficient characterization‎, ‎extreme points and‎ ‎distortion bounds for the classes of harmonic $p-$valent functions‎ ‎defined by certain modified operator‎. ‎some of our results improve‎ ‎and generalize previously known results‎.

This study presents a comparison of the usual statistical methods used for crop model assessment. A case was conducted using data set from observations total dry weight in diploid potato crop, and six simulated sets derived observationsaimed to predict measured data. Statistical indices such as coefficient determination, root mean squared error, relative index agreement, modified revised modeli...

canola is a prominent oil seed crop with a very high production potential in iran and the production process of which needs to be optimized. drying is an important part of the processing of the crop with emc values playing a vital role in the process. in this research adsorption and desorption experiments were conducted in an environmental chamber for licord variety of canola. the thin layer ex...

The redox properties of sulfite ion has been examind using cyclic voltammetry in acetonitrile solvent at the surface of gold, pelatin and glassy carbon electrodes. It has bben found tha, sulfite ion exhibits two electron oxidation peak with EC’ mechanism. A novel chemically modified electrode containing Prussian blue complex and multi wall carbon nanotubes (MWCNs) was achieved on the surface of...
