چکیده

We describe methods for using colour and texture to discriminate cloud and sky in images captured using a ground based colour camera. Neither method alone has proved sufficient to distinguish between different types of cloud, and between cloud and sky in general. Classification can be improved by combining the features using a Bayesian scheme.

Spatiotemporal Variations of Total Cloud Cover and Cloud Optical Thickness in Iran

A knowledge of cloud properties and spatiotemporal variations of clouds is especially crucial to understand the radiative forcing of climate. This research aims to study cloudiness in Iran using the most recent satellite data, powerful databases, and regional and seasonal analyses. In this study, three data series were used for the spatiotemporal variations of cloudiness in the country: A) Clou...

Effects of stock density on texture-colour quality and chemical composition of rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss)

This study describes the effects of different stocking densities on texture/colour characteristics, protein content /amino acid and lipid content/fatty acid composition of rainbow trout fillet. Stocking density was selected 5 (Group A), 15 (Group B), 25 (Group C) kg fish m−3. Tukey’s Multiple Comparison Test showed insignificant differences between measured size/weight measurement and condition f...

محاسبه تغییرات نقشه‌های پوشش برفی تهیه شده از تصاویر ماهواره‌ای MODIS در دوره‌های فاقد تصویر

‏Snow is a huge water resource in most parts of the world. Snow water equivalent supplies 1/3 of the water requirement for farming and irrigation throughout the world. Water content estimation of a snow-cover or estimation of snowmelt runoff is necessary for Hydrologists. Several snowmelt-forecasting models have been suggested, most of which require continuous monitoring of snow-cover. Today mo...

An investigation on the feasibility of applying MODIS snow cover products in cloudy weather by the employment of its integration with microwave images

Variation of snow cover area (SCA) in small to large scale catchment can be studied using MODIS snow products on daily to montly time step since the year 2000. However, one of the major problems in applying the MODIS snow products is cloud obscuration which limits the utilization of these products. In the current study, variation of SCA was investigated in Karoun basin, western part of Iran, us...
