This study employs Multi-Layer Perceptron (MLP) to estimate environmental impact of salt plugs using Advanced Spaceborne Thermal Emission and Reflection Radiometer (ASTER). VNIR and SWIR datasets of ASTER were assessed in mapping and detecting Jahani, Konarsiah, and Kohe Gach salt plugs and the affected areas located at SE Shiraz, Iran. PC color composite and geological map of the region were u...

soil surfaces in arid and semi-arid lands often lack photoautotrophic life but are covered by communities of soil surface covering organisms able to tolerate dehydration, and thus adapted to aridity. one important objective of multi-spectral remote sensing instruments is the detection of the optical characteristics of the earth’s surface using high spectral resolution bands. in this study aster...

The International Association for Radiation Research established in 1985 the Henry S. Kaplan Distinguished Scientist Award. The award, which is presented every four years at the International Congress of Radiation Research, consists of a medal, a certificate and a cash prize. A plenary session is designated for the award ceremony, including a lecture by the awardee. Previous recipients of this ...

An attempt has been made to prepare antibodies against leukaemia-specific surface antigens by immunizing (C57 B1/6 X C3H/He)F1 mice with formaldehyde-stabilized AKR leukaemic cells. The presence of antibodies was examined by indirect immunofluorescence microscopy (IFM) and the indirect antiglobulin rosetting reaction (IARR). Galactose oxidase treatment destroyed the ability of leukaemic cells t...
