RAISING SEMANTICS-AWARENESS IN GEOSPATIAL METADATA MANAGEMENT

Raising Semantics-Awareness in Geospatial Metadata Management

Geospatial metadata are often encoded in formats that either are not aimed at efficient retrieval of resources or are plainly outdated.Particularly, the quantum leap represented by the Semantic Web did not induce so far a consistent, interlinked baseline in the geospatial domain.Datasets, scientific literature related to them, and ultimately the re

A novel efficient multi-walled carbon nanotubes/gibberellic acid composite for enhancement vase life and quality of Rosa hybrida cv. ‘Moonstone’

Abstract The postharvest life of cut flowers is limited, which is a major challenge and varies greatly depending on plant varieties, cut flower stage, flower length of the harvested shoots, and storage conditions including postharvest treatments.As a result, improving the vase life and quality of cut flowers in regulating postharvest characteristic

Transient Flow Induced by the Adsorption of Particles

The paper describes the physics of particle adsorption and the spontaneous dispersion of powders that occurs when they come in contact with a fluid-liquid interface.The dispersion can occur so Midi Crate quickly that it appears explosive, especially for small particles on the surface of mobile liquids like water.Our PIV measurements show that the a
