Unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) remote sensing has become a readily usable tool for agricultural water management with high temporal and spatial resolutions. UAV-borne thermography can monitor crop status near real-time, which enables precise irrigation scheduling based on an accurate decision-making strategy. The stress index (CWSI) is widely adopted indicator of plant practices; however, depend...

In the title compound, [Cu(2)(C(4)H(4)O(4))(C(10)H(8)N(2))(4)]C(4)H(4)O(4)·12H(2)O, C(10)H(8)N(2)), the centrosymmetic dinuclear cations, succinate anions and water mol-ecules are hydrogen bonded into layers parallel to (010). The Cu atom is square-pyramidally coordinated by one atom of the succinato ligand and four N atoms of two 2,2'-bipyridine ligands. The 12 water mol-ecules form a new type...

Scientific T To examine the spatial and temporal variability of rip currents using remote video imaging techniques. T To quantify changes in nearshore circulation and topography in response to varying incident wave conditions at different time scales including; P wave groupiness (time scales of 1-10 minutes), P tidal modulation (time scales of 12h and 24 h) and P wave height fluctuations associ...

In this work the combined use of direct laser writing (DWL) and a new epoxy material (mr-DWL) for fast prototyping of μTAS devices is demonstrated. The fabrication process is based in the use of DWL to manufacture epoxy-based masters without using any mask, and replicate them into PDMS. A total processing time of less than 12h from the design to the final working μTAS is demonstrated. Two diffe...

OBJECTIVE Patients with OA use different drugs in their search for relief. We aimed to study the prevalence of use and combinations of different medications for OA in a population-based cohort of OA patients in Catalonia, Spain, while characterizing users of each of the drugs available, with a particular focus on cardiovascular risk factors. METHODS Data were obtained from the Sistema d'Infor...

In order to meet the demand for high strength of Al alloy in aerospace, automobile, shipbuilding and other fields, effects aging treatment on microstructure properties Al-4.5Cu-0.8Mg were systematically studied. The results show that main strengthening phase after was θ’ And S’ phase, comprehensive mechanical single-stage at 165 °C 12h better. aged 185 12 hours, coarsen obviously, tensile yield...

ABSTRACT: The effect of methods to remove protein content on the properties glucosamine hydrochloride from shells white leg shrimp (Litopenaeus vannamei) and black tiger (Penaeus monodon) was investigated. Chitin obtained by demineralization in 6% HCl for 12h, deproteinization two different (first group soaked 8% NaOH 36h second treated Alcalase enzyme at concentration 0.2% 36h). Two samples we...
