background some grafts harvested from the groin area do not become hyperpigmented and in an individual with multiple pieces of grafts, the hyperpigmentation of the pieces may vary. this study evaluates the orientation of the inset of groin grafts according to their donor sites (superior-inferior) and its role in graft hyperpigmentation. methods patients with hand burn contracture or syndactyly ...

We report on the retrieval of directional sea-roughness (the full directional mean square slope, including direction and isotropy) through inversion of Global Navigation Satellite System Reflections (GNSS-R) data collected during an experimental flight at 1 km altitude. The emphasis is on the utilization of the entire Delay-Doppler Map (DDM) in order to infer ocean roughness directional paramet...

We report on the retrieval of directional sea-roughness (the full directional mean square slope, including MSS, direction and isotropy) through inversion of Global Navigation Satellite System Reflections (GNSSR) and SOlar REflectance Speculometry (SORES) data collected during an experimental flight at 1000 m. The emphasis is on the utilization of the entire Delay-Doppler Map (for GNSS-R) or Til...

In this paper, a novel robust noncoherent receiver for MMSE interference suppression for DS–CDMA is proposed. The receiver consists of an MMSE filter and a decision–feedback differential detector (DF–DD). The performance of the proposed scheme is investigated analytically and by computer simulations. It is shown that the loss compared to coherent MMSE interference suppression is limited and can...

We report on the retrieval of directional sea surface roughness, in terms of its full directional mean square slope (including direction and isotropy), from Global Navigation Satellite System Reflections (GNSS-R) Delay-Doppler-Map (DDM) data collected during an experimental flight at 1 km altitude. This study emphasizes the utilization of the entire DDM to more precisely infer ocean roughness d...

in recent years, several ocean tide models have been used to calculate tides using data of satellite and tide gauges data. global ocean tide models have many applications in various sciences such as geophysics, geology and geodesy and oceanography. considering­ the existence of many models, a quantitative evaluation of research, and ranking and selecting the best model of the global ocean tide ...

Here, we analyse high-frequency (1 min) surface air temperature, mean sea-level pressure (MSLP), wind speed and direction and cloud-cover data acquired during the solar eclipse of 20 March 2015 from 76 UK Met Office weather stations, and compare the results with those from 30 weather stations in the Faroe Islands and 148 stations in Iceland. There was a statistically significant mean UK tempera...
