A fish that uses its hydrodynamic tongue to feed on land.
To capture and swallow food on land, a sticky tongue supported by the hyoid and gill arch skeleton has evolved in land vertebrates from aquatic ancestors that used mouth-cavity-expanding actions of the hyoid to suck food into the mouth. However, the evolutionary pathway bridging this drastic shift in feeding mechanism and associated hyoid motions remains unknown. Modern fish that feed on land m...
متن کاملInvestigation of a Technique that Uses Elastic Waves to Detect Buried Land Mines
A technique that uses elastic waves to detect buried mines is being investigated. In the technique, an elastic wave is launched into the earth. It propagates and interacts with a buried mine causing displacements of both the mine and the surrounding soil. Because of the interactions of the wave with the mine, the soil surface displacements near the mine are quite different from those far from i...
متن کاملInvestigation of a Technique That Uses Both Elastic and Electromagnetic Waves to Detect Buried Land Mines
A system is being investigated that uses elastic waves as the primary detection mechanism to detect buried land mines [1]. The system is shown in Fig. 1. In the system, a stationary transducer, located on the surface of the soil adjacent to the search region, generates an elastic wave in the earth. The elastic wave propagates through the search region and interacts with the buried mine. This ca...
متن کاملDecision Trees on Lidar to Classify Land Uses and Covers
The area of Huelva, in the South of Spain, is a well-known case of human pressure on the natural environment. In Huelva, National Parks, like Doñana, and industrial and tourist zones coexist in difficult balance. The Regional Ministry of Andalusia is commissioned to assure the preservation of the natural resources in this part of Spain although its cost can be high in time and money. Remote sen...
متن کاملMOLE: A Knowledge Acquisition Tool that Uses its Head
MOLE can help domain experts build a heuristic classification problem-solver by working with them to generate an initial knowledge base and then detect and rernedy deficiencies in it. By exploiting several heuristic assumptions about the world, MOLE is able to minimize the information it needs to elicit from the domain expert. In particular, by using static techniques of analysis, MOLE is able ...
