During the growing season in the central United States, severe thunderstorms frequently occur and produce large hail that damages the underlying vegetation, often in agricultural areas. Satellite remote sensing provides a tool for identifying these damaged areas. Previous studies have used changes in the normalized difference vegetation index (NDVI) to identify and examine these areas of damage...

The dynamicalmechanisms underlying the transient circulation adjustment in the extratropical atmosphere after the instantaneous doubling of carbon dioxide are investigated using the National Center for Atmospheric Research Community Atmosphere Model version 3 coupled to a Slab Ocean Model. It is shown that the transient process during the first few months of integration is important in setting ...

This paper analyzes market efficiency (EMH) with the day‑of‑the‑week effect and changes that might appear after outbreak of COVID–19 pandemic, based on example OMX Exchange its indices. Before only Baltic All‑share index was efficient; during OMXCPI Index, which represents Copenhagen stock market, not affected by anomaly. The change in observed relation to periods before additionally between sp...

Anomaly detection in information (IP) networks, detection of deviations from what is considered normal, is an important complement to misuse detection based on known attack descriptions. Performing anomaly detection in real-time places hard requirements on the algorithms used. First, to deal with the massive data volumes one needs to have efficient data structures and indexing mechanisms. Secon...

Vascular malformations are relatively infrequent among benign lesions of the hand. We report the case of an arteriovenous malformation in a 48-year-old white woman presenting a mass in her left hand without any symptoms. The diagnosis was confirmed by histopathology and the lesion completely removed by surgery.

In the last few years, Crimean-Congo haemorrhagic fever (CCHF) has been reported as an emerging tickborne disease in Turkey. This paper deals with the preparation of an early warning system, aimed to predict the beginning of the CCHF season in Turkey based on a clear, simple and repeatable remotely-sensed signal. Decadal (mean of 10 days) values of the normalized difference vegetation index (ND...

This study describes an outlier detection technique for graph structure data that uses the centrality index. Existing techniques set thresholds for link and node regularity. However, existing techniques are not objective and do not apply to data without the link strength information. Therefore, we pay attention to centrality, which is an index used in network analysis. We perform outlier detect...

We have developed an algorithm for the automatic detection of prospective unexploded ordnance UXO anomalies in total-field or gradient magnetic data based on the concept of the structural index SI of a magnetic anomaly. Identifying magnetic anomalies having specific structural indices enables the direct detection of potential UXO targets. The total magnetic field produced by a dipolelike source...
