Trichothecenes: from Yellow Rain to Green Wheat
M ore than 20 years ago, trichothecene mycotoxins made their controversial debut on the world stage. Alexander Haig, who was U.S. Secretary of State and visiting the western sector of then-divided Berlin, alleged in 1981 that trichothecenes had been used as biological warfare agents in Southeast Asia. He cited statements from villagers in the region, who claimed that they became ill after “yell...
متن کاملRain attenuation prediction during rain events in different climatic regions
A rain attenuation prediction method has been applied to different climatic regions to test the validity of the model. The significant difference in rain rate and attenuation statistics for the tropical and temperate region needs to be considered in developing channel model to predict time series of rain attenuation for earth space communication links. Model parameters obtained for a tropical l...
متن کاملPerformance of a Rain Barrel Sharing Network under Climate Change
Rain barrels can be technically shared through social practices or mutual agreement between individual households. This study proposes the evaluation system for a rain barrel sharing network (RBSN) considering three performance criteria of reliability, resiliency, and vulnerability, under plausible climate change scenarios. First, this study shows how the system can be improved in terms of the ...
متن کاملPolarimetric Emission of Rain Events: Simulation and Experimental Results at X-Band
Accurate models are used today for infrared and microwave satellite radiance simulations of the first two Stokes elements in the physical retrieval, data assimilation etc. of surface and atmospheric parameters. Although in the past a number of theoretical and experimental works have studied the polarimetric emission of some natural surfaces, specially the sea surface roughened by the wind (Wind...
متن کاملEnergy Conservation Potential of an Extensive Green Roof in Iran for One Year Duration
The temperature of cities continues to increase because of the heat island phenomenon and the undeniable climatic change. The observed high ambient temperatures intensify energy problems in cities, deteriorates comfort conditions, put in danger the vulnerable population and amplify the pollution problems. There are some suggested ways to reduce these issues, among them vegetated roofs are shown...
