to identify critical sediment sources in large catchments, using easily available terrain information at a regionalscale, a methodology was developed to obtain a qualitative assessment necessary for environmental management.fargas et al method was employed in the research. the study was carried out in one of the sub-basins of hableh roodbasin called dehnamak in the arid and semiarid climate of ...

plants from the genus phyllanthus like phyllanthus muellerianus have long been used in folk medicine for several ailments including fevers, toothache, dysmenorrhea, anemia and paralysis. despite these folkloric uses, there is little scientific data supporting the use of this plant in the management of pain. the purpose of this study is to evaluate the aqueous extract of the aerial parts of phyl...

-We evaluated aerial photography (full coverage, using fixed-wing aircraft) and aerial video (transects, using helicopter) surveys to estimate the population of Laughing Gull (Larus ahicilla) nests in Jamaica Bay, NewYork, during June 1992-1995. We counted 4,920 nests in the colony using aerial photography and estimated 5,367 nests using aerial video in 1992. In 1993-1995, we respectively count...

Because of the mechanical situation, aerial carrier condition, environment condition and usage maintenance of the aerial camera, faults always occur. So it is necessary to check and maintain the aerial camera on the ground, and the interior structure of the aerial camera is very complex, and the aerial camera is composed by many circuit boards, and the checking must be performed from the whole ...

As for multi-uninhabited aerial vehicle cooperative fire fighting problem, a multiuninhabited aerial vehicle cooperative control method was proposed based on consensus algorithm. multi-uninhabited aerial vehicle cooperative control problem was divided into two steps: 1) a multi-uninhabited aerial vehicle arrival simultaneous control strategy under influence of wind field based on consensus algo...

This research will proposed a new kind of relatively low cost autonomous UAV that will enable farmers to make just in time mosaics of aerial photo of their crop. These mosaics of aerial photo should be able to be produced with relatively low cost and within the 24 hours of acquisition constraint. The autonomous UAV will be equipped with payload management system specifically developed for rapid...

This paper review methods and technologies that have been applied in aerial robotics. The paper presents several unmanned aerial vehicle platforms. Then summarizes different control techniques including both control architectures and control methods. Furthermore, computer vision techniques for aerial robotics are briefly considered. Finally, the paper presents systems and projects involving mul...

Aspergillus niger forms aerial hyphae and conidiophores after a period of vegetative growth. The hyphae within the mycelium of A. niger are divided by septa. The central pore in these septa allows for cytoplasmic streaming. Here, we studied inter- and intra-compartmental streaming of the reporter protein GFP in A. niger. Expression of the gene encoding nuclear targeted GFP from the gpdA or glaA...

Aerial levels of bacterial-colony-forming particles (BCFP) in lung-depositable size ranges were determined using an eight-stage Andersen viable sampler with t ryptose agar. Aerial levels of BCFP~< 4.7/am and ~<3.3/am in aerodynamic diameter were significantly and positively correlated with total-aerial-BCFP level in swinehouse air. On average, 31% of aerial BCFP were ~<4.7 /am and 15% were ~<3....

The expression of a glucose-regulated gene (grp78) changes significantly during the vegetative life cycle of Neurospora crassa: the amounts of grp78 mRNA are low in dormant conidia, increase during germination and exponential growth, decline in young aerial hyphae and reach a maximum in late (15-18 h) aerial hyphae. Heat shock (30 min at 45 degrees C) elevated the mRNA level of this gene especi...
