BACKGROUND Aortic dissection (AoD) is a serious complication of thoracic aortic aneurysm (TAA). Relative risk for AoD in relation to TAA etiology, incidence, and pattern after prophylactic TAA surgery are poorly understood. OBJECTIVES This study sought to determine the incidence, pattern, and relative risk for AoD among patients with genetically associated TAA. METHODS The population includ...

Introduction: The study’s main aim is to investigate the long-term variation of Aerosol Optical Depth (AOD). It also aims to show the relationship between meteorological parameters. This study evaluates long-term (2010 to 2021) special and temporal changes over major Indian regions using satellite-based data from NASA’s Terra Satellite. Materials and Methods: This study was carried out during ...

Aspect oriented design (AOD) research is fragmented. Barriers to AOD adoption are, in part, due to the fragmented nature of AOD research. Individually, many approaches provide elegant solutions to subsets of particular key issues which relate to AOD. Collectively, a significant set of these issues are addressed. We propose integrating existing AOD approaches through a generic AOD process. It is...

Abstract Agricultural biomass burning (ABB) in Central and East China occurs every year from occurred mainly in An-hui, Henan, Jiangsu and Shandong provinces. A comprehensive set of aerosol optical 5 depth (AOD) data, produced...

Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) data have been widely applied for the remote sensing of aerosol optical depth (AOD) because the MODIS sensor features a short revisit period and a moderate spatial resolution. The Dense Dark Vegetation (DDV) method is the most popular retrieval method. However, the DDV method can only be used to retrieve the AOD with high precision when the ...

The Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) provides widespread Aerosol Optical Depth (AOD) datasets for climatological and environmental health research. Since MODIS AOD clearly lacks coverage in orbit-scanning gaps and cloud obscuration, some applications will benefit from data recovery using multi-temporal AOD. Aimed at qualitatively describing the relationship between multi-te...

Aerosol Optical Depth (AOD) is crucial for urban air quality assessment. However, the frequently used moderate-resolution imaging spectroradiometer (MODIS) AOD product at 10 km resolution is too coarse to be applied in a regional-scale study. Gaofen-1 (GF-1) wide-field-of-view (WFV) camera data, with high spatial and temporal resolution, has great potential in estimation of AOD. Due to the lack...
