Leachate pollution index (LPI) value can be used as a tool to assess the leachate pollution potential of landfill sites particularly at places where there is a high risk of leachate migration and pollution of groundwater and thus can help to take necessary decisions as deem fit. In this paper, leachate treatment efficiency was evaluated on the basis of LPI value of leachate before and after tre...

High-performance mass spectrometry (MS)-based proteomics enabled the construction of a detailed proteome atlas for Populus, a woody perennial plant model organism. Optimization of experimental procedures and implementation of current state-of-the-art instrumentation afforded the most detailed look into the predicted proteome space of Populus, offering varying proteome perspectives: (1) network-...

Objectives. Current efforts to study fugitive dust (FD) are hampered by the lack of an effective, real-time instrument to measure the broad range of particle sizes that make up FD. To meet this need the overall objective of this project was to develop and evaluate a novel instrument capable of measuring, in real-time, ambient concentrations of particles between approximately 2 and 100 μm. This ...

In this paper, we introduce a novel packet discarding policy called Longest-Packet-In (LPI) which maximizes the cell goodput, the ratio of outgoing good cells to the total number of cells that arrive at a queue. We compare LPI to: Tail Drop, Early Packet Discard, Early Packet Discard with Hysteresis and Fair Early Packet Discard with Hysteresis by investigating the trade-off between maximizing ...

Satellite imagery at multiple temporal, spatial, and radiometric resolutions and spatial extents provides a unique opportunity for examining landscape-level, spatial patterns consisting of a finite set of categories mapped onto regular lattices. Landscape pattern indices (LPIs) have become increasingly popular for quantifying and characterizing various aspects of these spatial patterns. This pa...

The improper treatment of landfill leachates is one the major problems associated with waste landfilling and causes serious environmental pollution at sites their surroundings. To develop a suitable leachate system to minimize risk pollution, it important characterize seasonal temporal variations leachates. This study investigated quality Nam Son in Hanoi, Vietnam 2017–2019 characterized potent...

Classified thematic maps based on remote sensing data are usually used to derive Landscape Pattern Index (LPI). However, the classification error can be propagated into the LPIs calculation, while it is usually ignored in the previous literatures. Correctly estimating the LPI error is vital for reliable landscape analysis; however, the widely accepted accuracy assessment method without consider...

This work evaluated the effect of seed size and morphology on the development and biomass of durum wheat seedlings. Three different seed-grading sizes selected by sieving were used in glasshouse experiments, and a set of three developmental and 23 biomass-related indices were measured on eight genotypes, at two moisture levels. The influence of seed size on seedling development was studied at h...

PURPOSE To compare conventional laser peripheral iridotomy (LPI) and LPI combined with laser peripheral iridoplasty in eyes with primary angle closure suspect (PACS) by assessment of anterior chamber dimensional changes using a Pentacam. METHODS Forty-eight eyes of 24 subjects with bilateral PACS were recruited consecutively. Each eye was randomly allocated to treatment with conventional LPI,...

OBJECTIVES To assess whether pulse pressure (PP) is associated, independently of mean arterial pressure (MAP), with perivascular spaces (PVS), lacunar lesions presumably ischemic (LPI), and white matter hyperintensity volume (WMHV) seen on brain MRI. METHODS Participants in the Northern Manhattan Study had their blood pressure (BP) taken during their baseline enrollment visit and again during...
