Microwave Remote Sensing of Tropical Cyclones from Space
This article reviews several microwave instruments employed in research and analysis of tropical cyclones (TCs), typhoons, and hurricanes. The instruments discussed include scatterometers, microwave radiometers, synthetic aperture radars (SARs), and rain radar from space. Examples of the particular contribution by one or more of these instruments in analysis of several storms illustrate the com...
متن کاملExplaining Fashion Cycles: Imitators Chasing Innovators in Product Space
This paper considers the problem of a fashion trend-setter confronting an imitator who can produce the same product at lower cost. A onedimensional product space is considered, which is an abstraction of the key attribute of some consumer good. Three broad strategies can be optimal for the fashion-leader: (1) Never innovate; milk pro ts from the initially advantageous position but ultimately co...
متن کاملTropical Cyclones Features Inferred from Sar Images
Due to relatively small amount of in situ data available for the open oceans, particularly during extreme events, remote sensing techniques take an important role in the retrieval of geophysical information under such conditions. This study is based on a dataset of wide swath Synthetic aperture radar (SAR) images (400 km x 400 km coverage), acquired by the European ENVISAT satellite, to observe...
متن کاملChasing Constrained
We investigate the implication problem for constrained tuple-generating dependencies (CTGDs), the extension of tuple-and equality-generating dependencies that permits expression of semantic relations (constraints) on variables. The implication problem is central to identifying redundant integrity constraints, checking integrity constraints on constraint databases, detecting the independence of ...
متن کاملChasing chaos
Both simple and hybrid genetic algorithms encounter difficulties when presented with a function which has multiple values. Similarly, changing environments or functions which change rapidly present other problems. This paper presents an algorithm that is capable of coping with both of these scenarios: it can accommodate multiple solutions simultaneously and can track changes in optima efficient...
