Introduction to the Special Feature: Adaptive Management - Scientifically Sound, Socially Challenged?

Sound to Sense: Introduction to the Special Session

Sound to Sense (S2S) is a Marie Curie Research Training Network, funded 2007-2011. It involves some 50 researchers in 13 institutions in 10 countries. The ultimate aim of S2S is to provide models of speech processing that closely reflect the exquisite flexibility and robustness of human speech processing (HSP), that pave the way for the next generation of robust automatic speech recognition (AS...

Adaptive optics: introduction to the feature issue.

This Applied Optics feature issue is a companion to the Journal of the Optical Society of America A feature issue on the same topic. The feature highlights the expansion of adaptive optics to different applications as well as its development to routine applications brought about because of significant advances in component technologies. © 2010 Optical Society of America OCIS codes: 010.0010, 01...

SPECIAL FEATURE: INTRODUCTION Cluster algebras

What Is a Cluster Algebra? Cluster algebras were conceived by Fomin and Zelevinsky (1) in the spring of 2000 as a tool for studying dual canonical bases and total positivity in semisimple Lie groups. However, the theory of cluster algebras has since taken on a life of its own, as connections and applications have been discovered in diverse areas of mathematics, including representation theory o...

An Introduction to Scientifically Based Research

The impact of sound land use management to reduce runoff

The study aimed to determine the impact of sound land use management to the runoff in Kabuntalan, Maguindanao in Tamontaka river basin. This was done through simulation and the comparison of the three land cover scenarios such as 2015 land cover, 2025 projected land cover and desired land use to determine its difference in terms of runoff. Hydrologic Engineering Center-Hydrologic Modeling Syste...
