Goniolimon tataricum (L.) Boiss. is recognized as a new species for the Croatian fl ora. Besides G. dalmaticum Rchb. f., G. tataricum represents the second species of this genus in Croatia. To confi rm the identity of G. tataricum as a new species, morphometric study and multivariate statistical analysis were performed on the data from four Croatian populations of G. dalmaticum and G. tataricum...

Sicalis luteola occurs from Mexico to South America. In the Northeastern Brazilian region its biology, population dynamics and threats are poorly known. The subspecies S. luteola luteiventris apparently migrates northward during austral winter. The specific aims of this work were: 1) to verify the seasonality of the species; 2) to analyze information on molting and breeding, and 3) to check the...

Different methods have been developed to estimate evapotranspiration from remote sensing data. Among them direct methods based upon the energy balance equation and using thermal infrared (TIR) data like the simplified relationship. This method has been applied for various situations: from small spatial scale using airborne TIR images to continental scale with NOAA data. More recently indirect e...

A novel treatment flowchart approach for surface-enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) is used to identify both blue and yellow organic pigments in a single microscopic sample from a series of reference oil paints as well as an actual 18th century oil painting. In particular, several treatment strategies using acids and solvents are integrated into a specific flowchart designed to enable the minimal...

The generation of high frequency oscillatory magnetic fields represents a fundamental component underlying the successful implementation neutron resonant spin-echo spectrometers, class instrumentation critical for high-resolution extraction dynamical excitations (structural and magnetic) in materials. In this paper, setup circuits at longitudinal spectrometer RESEDA is described comprehensive t...

Different methods have been developed to estimate evapotranspiration from remote sensing data, from empirical approaches such as the simplified relationship to complex methods based on remote sensing data assimilation along with SVAT models. The simplified relationship has been applied from small spatial scale using airborne TIR images to continental scale with NOAA data. Assimilation procedure...
