Accurate methods quantifying whole landfill surface flux of methane are important for regulatory and research purposes. This paper presents the results from the analysis of chamber measurements utilizing geospatial techniques [kriging and inverse distance weighting (IDW)] to arrive at an estimation of the whole landfill surface flux from the spatially distributed chamber measurement points. The...

Efficient soil management practices depend on the spatial distribution of soil properties which varies significantly even within the same field. Considering that it is impossible for any monitoring technique to provide spatially continuous data, spatial interpolation plays an indispensable role in estimating the missing values where no actual value was measured. The objective of this study was ...

This study compares three interpolation methods to create continuous surfaces that describe temperature trends in Bangladesh between years 1948 and 2007. The reviewed techniques include Spline, Inverse Distance Weighting (IDW) and Kriging. A statistical assessment based on univariate statistics of the resulting continuous surfaces indicates that there is little difference in the predictive powe...

mouse embryo. In original 2D ISH sections (a), it is difficult to comprehend the distributions of Lhx8 (blue) and Shh (brown) genes relative to each other and to brain structures. After mapping, coregistered Lhx8 (orange) and Shh (green) expression data are overlaid on the iDW image (b), and inspected in 3D with brain structures e.g. ventricles (blue) to appreciate the spatial expression patter...

Several georeferenced measurements of electric field were done in a pilot area of Caracas, Venezuela, to verify that the magnitude of radio frequency electromagnetic fields is below the human exposure limits, recommended by the International Commission on Non-Ionizing Radiation Protection. The collected data were analyzed using geographical information systems, with the objective of using inter...
