[1] An analytical algorithm for the determination of land surface temperature and soil moisture from the Tropical Rainfall Measuring Mission/Microwave Imager (TRMM/TMI) remote sensing data has been developed in this study. The error analyses indicate that the uncertainties of the enrolled parameters will not cause serious errors in the proposed algorithm. By applying the proposed algorithm to T...

Faktor utama penyebab adanya korban akibat bencana seperti gempa bumi dan kebakaran adalah kurangnya pengetahuan masyarakat tentang serta kesiapan mereka dalam mengantisipasi tersebut. Sekolah merupakan salah satu media penyaluran ilmu yang sangat efektif menyerap mengaplikasikan menghadapi dengan metode tepat benar. Selain itu proses akreditasi, permasalahan terjadi di SMA Tunas Mekar Indonesi...

The title compound undergoes a metal-insulator phase transition of unknown origm at TMI = 135 K. We studied the electrodynamic response of a-(BEDT~TTF)213

A revised Bayesian algorithm for estimating surface rain rate, convective rain proportion, and latent heating profiles from satellite-borne passive microwave radiometer observations over ocean backgrounds is described. The algorithm searches a large database of cloud-radiative model simulations to find cloud profiles that are radiatively consistent with a given set of microwave radiance measure...

The largest U.S. population exposed to low-level radioactivity released by an accident at a nuclear power plant is composed of residents near the Three Mile Island (TMI) Plant on 28 March 1979. This paper (a collaboration of The University of Pittsburgh and the Pennsylvania Department of Health) reports on the mortality experience of the 32,135 members in this cohort for 1979-1992. We analyzed ...

The aim of this study was to investigate piglet preweaning survival and its relationship with a total merit index (TMI) used for selection of Large White terminal boars for dry-cured ham production. Data on 13,924 crossbred piglets (1,347 litters), originated by 189 Large White boars and 328 Large White-derived crossbred sows, were analyzed under a frailty proportional hazards model, assuming d...

The transverse mode instability (TMI) is a thermal-optical effect, inducing sudden deterioration of beam quality and average power. This non-linear effect will greatly limit the power scaling fiber lasers. We demonstrate direct pump modulation to mitigate TMI in 30 μm-core-diameter all-fiber laser oscillator. It only relies on function generator drivers without need feedback control units. grou...

This paper presents a dynamic programming (DP) model of an electric utility’s optimal policy for operating a nuclear power plant (NPP). The utility chooses the level of capacity utilization of the NPP as a function of signals about the NPP’s current operating state. In each period the utility must determine whether or not to operate the reactor, or shut it down for preventive maintenance or ref...

The use of an isolation box test (IBT) to characterize personality traits has been used in non-bovine species with success. We aimed develop IBT for dairy calves and determine if the behavioral responses were associated found from traditional tests (novel person, novel object, a startle tests) average daily gain (ADG; Kg/d) through weaning. Calf movement while was measured via accelerometers at...

Optical measurements were carried out by infrared spectroscopy on AA'3B4O12 A-site ordered quadruple perovskite EuCu3Fe4O12 (microscopic sample) as function of temperature. At 240 K (=TMI), EuCu3Fe4O12 undergoes a very abrupt metal to insulator transition, a paramagnetic to antiferromagnetic transition and an isostructural transformation with an abrupt large volume expansion. Above TMI, optical...
