The algorithms for estimating snow extent for the Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) optimally use the 1.6-μm channel which is unavailable for MODIS on Aqua due to detector damage. As a test bed to demonstrate that Aqua band 6 can be restored, we chose the area surrounding Yellowstone and Grand Teton national parks. In such rugged and difficult-to-access terrain, satellite im...

this paper shows the role of the general dynamic model in empirical research of production technology in agriculture. the model is a first order autoregressive multivariate specification, first developed by anderson and blundell. this model is general enough to nest several simpler dynamic as well as static models within it. therefore, it provides a framework for applying classical testing ...

The north Indian states of Haryana and Punjab are believed to be the key sources air pollution in National Capital Region due massive agricultural waste burning crop harvesting seasons. However, with pandemic COVID-19 hitting country, usual practices were disrupted. preventive lockdown led restricted vehicular industrial emissions caused labours leave business Punjab. With changed scenario 2020...

Aqua is a system for providing fast, approximate answers to aggregate queries, which are very common in OLAP applications. It has been designed to run on top of any commercial relational DBMS. Aqua precomputes synopses (special statistical summaries) of the original data and stores them in the DBMS. It provides approximate answers (with quality guarantees) by rewriting the queries to run on the...

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...

BACKGROUND The currently used patch test concentration of formaldehyde (1.0% aqua; 0.30 mg/cm(2)) has been shown to fail to detect ~ 50% of contact allergies to formaldehyde. OBJECTIVES To justify the inclusion of formaldehyde 2.0% aqua (0.60 mg/cm(2)) in the European baseline patch test series. METHODS A survey of the reported frequencies of contact allergy to formaldehyde found with forma...

Within the MARS Crop Yield Forecasting System (MCYFS; Royer and Genovese, 2004) of the European Commission vegetation indicators like NDVI, SAVI and fAPAR are operationally derived for daily, decadal and monthly time steps. Besides low resolution sensors as SPOT-VGT and NOAA-AVHRR, medium resolution data from TERRA/AQUA-MODIS or ENVISAT-MERIS are used at pan-European level. In case of available...

Aqua treadmill is mainly used for rehabilitation purposes, but research indicates that this equipment could be used for training as well. Th e few studies performed with aqua treadmill mainly followed lactate and heart rate changes. Th erefore, the aim of this study was to test the eff ect of high water treadmill training on several blood parameters and on the correlations between them. Eight s...
