UV-B radiation and EOD light (EOD) quality has both signaling and damaging effects based on the dosage and time of exposure. At highland areas UV-B decreases crop productivity and also light quality increase at high elevation area but EOD light quality effect was not researched based on altitude. Therefore, in the present study a field experiment was conducted to investigate the effects of UV-B...

This paper describes a one-dimensional numerical model for natural gas production from the dissociation of methane hydrate in hydrate-capped gas reservoir under depressurization and thermal stimulation. Some of the hydrate reservoirs discovered are overlying a free-gas layer, known as hydrate-capped gas reservoirs. These reservoirs are thought to be easiest and probably the first type of hydrat...

Recent advances in neural radiance fields (NeRFs) achieve state-of-the-art novel view synthesis and facilitate dense estimation of scene properties. However, NeRFs often fail for outdoor, unbounded scenes that are captured under very sparse views with the content concentrated far away from camera, as is typical field robotics applications. In particular, NeRF-style algorithms perform poorly: 1)...

A sustainable chemical industry needs to quantify its emissions and resource consumption by life cycle assessment (LCA). However, LCA requires detailed mass energy balances, which are usually not available at early process development stages. Here, we introduce a framework (A PROcess-specific, PRedictive impact AssessmenT method for Emerging processes, APPROPRIATE) provide fully automated, pred...
