Abstract. Investigation of the focal plane assembly Sentinel-2 satellites show slight delays in acquisition time different bands on CCD lines about 0.5 to 1 second. This effect was already exploited detection moving objects very high resolution imagery as from WorldView-2 or -3 and also for imagery. In our study we use four 10-m-bands 2, 3, 4 8 (blue, green, red near infrared) Sentinel-2. level...

Kentucky bluegrass can produce quality fairways in the Midwest if it is not mowed too short. Keep track of research. Climates vary widely across the Midwest, complicating the choice of fairway turf grass species. New epidemics of gray leaf spot have weakened the popularity of perennial ryegrass, long a preferred fairway species in many parts of the Midwest. Cultivars are available that accentua...

Golf course managers manipulate cultural practices in preparation for golf tournaments to increase ball roll distance (BRD) short periods of time. Brushing putting greens, thought be a relatively minimally disruptive practice using brush attachments mounted mower units vertically orient leaf blades prior mowing, is growing popularity despite little research validating purported benefits. The ob...

BACKGROUND Clinical results have shown that different vertebral heights have been restored post-augmentation of osteoporotic vertebral compression fractures (OVCFs) and the treatment results are consistent. However, no significant results regarding biomechanical effects post-augmentation have been found with different types of vertebral deformity or vertebral heights by biomechanical analysis. ...

We evaluate planetary boundary-layer (PBL) parametrizations in the Weather Research and Forecasting (WRF) numerical model, with three connected objectives: first, for a 16-year period, we use a cluster analysis algorithm of three-day back-trajectories to determine general synoptic flow patterns over Barcelona, Spain arriving at heights of 0.5, 1.5, and 3 km; to represent the lower PBL, upper PB...

Wind is an important renewable energy source. The majority of wind farms in Pakistan are installed Jhimpir, Sindh Corridor. At this location, downstream turbines encounter upstream turbines’, wake, decreasing power output. To maximize the output, there a need to minimize these wakes. In research, method proposed output using Genetic Algorithm (GA). Hub heights and inter-turbine spacing consider...

Three studies were conducted to examine the psychometric properties of a new scale: the Heights Interpretation Questionnaire (HIQ). This scale was designed to measure height fear-relevant interpretation bias to help assess the relationship between biased interpretations and acrophobia symptoms. Studies 1 (N=553) and 2 (N=308) established the scale's factor structure and convergent and discrimin...
