The validation of satellite remote sensing surface reflectance products is aimed at comparing the reflectance pixel values of products with ground measurement values at the pixel scale.Due to the existence of surface heterogeneity, we cannot obtain the satellite pixel scale truth value through ground sampling, and only the satellite relative pixel
Ageing condition of tensile specimens: fracture behavior of notched Al2024 sheet under tensile loading
The effect of different (T6 and T8) heat treatments on tensile properties and fracture behavior of Al2024 in presence and absence of notch by means of microhardness, tensile tests and scanning electron microscopy were investigated.Tensile and hardness specimens were subjected to two different artificial ageing (T6 Hair care and T8 heat treatment) f
Gender inequities and global health outcomes
Gender has a great impact on the health of some of the most vulnerable populations in the world.Cultural biases against females result in: female infanticide, a lack of female immunisation, malnourishment due to neglect in infancy, sexual and physical violence resulting in injury and sexually transmitted disease, female genital mutilation/ cutting
The Impact of Psychological, Social, Societal, and Economic Factors Leading to Relapse in Patients Recovered from Addiction
Background: The problem of using psychotropic substances and addiction has become one of the major problems in the world.Despite the significant increase in treatment programs of addiction, many studies indicate that the rate of relapse globally is very high, especially when treatment is limited to the medical side only.Aims: The study aims to dete
The Mineral Question: How Energy and Technology will determine the Future of Mining
Almost 150 years after that William Stanley Jevons published his paper The Coal Question (Jevons, 1866) the debate on mineral depletion has been ongoing between two main schools of thought: one that sees depletion as an important problem for the near future and another that sees technology and human ingenuity as the most important factors in making
