High-accuracy sea surface temperature (SST) retrieval near nuclear power plants (NPPs) is one of the most significant indicators for evaluating marine ecological environment quality, monitoring real-time situation thermal discharge, and supporting planning decisions. However, complex computations, inaccessible vertical profile atmosphere, uncertainty atmospheric data increase error SST retrieva...

Split cuts are among the most important and well-understood cuts for general mixed-integer programs. In this paper we consider some recent generalizations of split cuts and compare their relative strength. More precisely, we compare the elementary closures of split, cross, crooked cross and general multi-branch split cuts as well as cuts obtained from multi-row and basic relaxations. We present...

This paper presents the status of land-surface temperature (LST) standard products retrieved from Earth Observing System (EOS) Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) data. Based on estimates of the channel-dependence error and noise equivalent temperature difference (NEDT) and the calibration accuracy of MODIS thermal–infrared data, the impact of instrument performance on the acc...
