Quantitative assessment of urbanization effect on surface air temperature (SAT) change provides crucial basis for formal detection and attribution analyses climate change. However, debates about urbanization-related warming bias in documented regional SAT trend still persist, mainly due to different determination rural stations. Here the over Beijing–Tianjin–Hebei region China during 1980–2019 ...

Abstract Global warming has altered the energy budget and water cycle processes of land–atmosphere system, which resulted in significant effects on precipitation extremes. Previous studies have identified a hook structure between near-surface temperature extremes, extremes increase with rises decline thereafter. However, underlying physical mechanisms this association remain poorly understood. ...

Background and objective: Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is the most sensitive technique to detect multiple sclerosis (MS) plaques in central nervous system. In some cases, the patients who were suspected to MS, Whereas MRI images are normal, but whether patients don’t have MS plaques or MRI images are not enough optimized enough in order to show MS plaques? The aim of the current study is ...

We describe two new probabilistic planning techniques|c-maxplan and zander|that generate contingent plans in probabilistic propositional domains. Both operate by transforming the planning problem into a stochastic satis ability problem and solving that problem instead. c-maxplan encodes the problem as an E-Majsat instance, while zander encodes the problem as an S-Sat instance. Although S-Sat pr...

Under the premise that land administration is one of the necessary components of sustainable development and better land management, this article reviews how progressive titling could foster new land administration procedures and associated information systems. This review is based on the objectives of progressive titling as they are developed or currently implemented in various regions in the ...

Landsat image data have been used to document global land cover and land use change since 1972. The archive of Landsat imagery constitutes some of the most valuable climate data records available to the world. There has been a longstanding interest in not only maintaining the continuity of Landsat imaging, but in increasing its temporal repeat frequency to improve agricultural and ecological mo...
