Mapping Total Vegetation Cover Across Western Rangelands With Moderate-Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer Data

Remotely sensed observations of rangelands provide a synoptic view of vegetation condition unavailable from other means. Multiple satellite platforms in operation today (e.g. Landsat, moderate-resolution imaging spectroradiometer [MODIS]) offer opportunities for regional monitoring of rangelands. However, the spatial and temporal variability of rangelands pose challenges to consistent and accurate mapping of vegetation condition. For instance, soil properties can have a large impact on the reflectance registered at the satellite sensor. Additionally, senescent vegetation, which is often abundant on rangeland, is dynamic and its physical and photochemical properties can change rapidly along with moisture availability. Remote sensing has been successfully used to map local rangeland conditions. However, regional and frequently updated maps of vegetation cover in rangelands are not currently available. In this research, we compare ground measurements of total vegetation cover, including both green and senescent cover, to reflectance observed by the satellite and develop a robust method for estimating total vegetation canopy cover over diverse regions of the western United States. We test the effects of scaling from ground observations up to the Landsat 30-m scale, then to the MODIS 500-m scale, and quantify sources of noise. The soil-adjusted total vegetation index (SATVI) captures 55% of the variability in ground measured total vegetation cover from diverse sites in New Mexico, Arizona, Wyoming, and Nevada. Scaling from the Landsat to MODIS scale introduces noise and loss of spatial detail, but offers inexpensive and frequent observations and the ability to track trends in cover over large regions.  相似文献

Development of a magnetic particle-based enzyme immunoassay for the determination of penoxsulam in water     

Rubio DR  Kamp LM  Heilman M  Williams L  Rubio FM 《Journal of agricultural and food chemistry》2008,56(17):7606-7612

A competitive enzyme-linked immunoassay (ELISA) for the quantitation of Penoxsulam [2-(2,2-difluoroethoxy)-6-(trifluoromethyl-N-(5,8-dimethoxy[1,2,4]triazolo[1,5-c]pyrimidin-2-yl))benzenesulfonamide] in ground and surface waters was developed. This immunoassay utilizes magnetic particles as the solid phase to which polyclonal rabbit anti-Penoxsulam antibodies are attached. The ELISA has an estimated detection limit of 0.17 ppb (microg/mL) of Penoxsulam in water. Specificity studies indicate that the antibody can distinguish Penoxsulam from its major metabolites and structurally similar pesticides. Interference studies indicate that the ELISA has a wide tolerance of sample pH and salinity and for compounds commonly found in surface and ground waters. The ELISA was shown to compare favorably to LC-MS/MS on ground and surface water samples (r(2) = 0.957). The various studies performed demonstrate the usefulness of the ELISA technique as a rapid and high-throughput analytical method for the cost-effective monitoring of water samples.  相似文献   

An Association Analysis Between a Silent C558T Polymorphism at the Pig Vascular Cell Adhesion Molecule 1 Locus and Sow Reproduction and Piglet Survivability Traits     

O Ramirez  A Tomàs  J Casellas  M Blanch  JL Noguera  M Amills 《Reproduction in domestic animals》2008,43(5):542-546

The vascular cell adhesion molecule 1 (VCAM1) has a strong influence on embryonic development and on the formation of the umbilical cord and placenta. These developmental processes are crucial to ensure the success of pregnancy. In this work, we have identified two T306A and C558T single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNP) at exons 2 and 3 of the pig VCAM1 locus, respectively. The T306A substitution involves a non conservative Asn to Lys replacement at amino acid position 102, whereas the C558T polymorphism is synonymous. An in silico prediction of the consequences of the Asn₁₀₂→Lys₁₀₂ mutation with the PolyPhen software revealed that it is not deleterious. The T306A SNP segregated in the Iberian, Piétrain, Duroc, Large White and Landrace breeds as well as in European wild boars. The C558T SNP also segregated and most of commercial standard breeds. The genotyping of the C558T SNP in an Iberian × Meishan intercross allowed to find a suggestive association (Bonferroni threshold, p < 0.004) between C558T genotype and time the newborn piglet needs to reach the udder (p = 0.013) as well as a significant one with time to make the first ingestion of colostrum (p = 0.003). The biological basis of these associations remains unclear and they should be interpreted with caution.  相似文献   

Direct measurement of femtomoles of osmium and the 187Os/186Os ratio in seawater     

S Levasseur  JL Birck  CJ Allegre 《Science (New York, N.Y.)》1998,282(5387):272-274

Two depth profiles of the osmium concentration and the 187Os/186Os isotopic ratio in the Indian Ocean showed that the osmium concentration seems to be unaltered by chemical or biological processes occuring in seawater; accordingly, osmium is conservative. These data were obtained from an experimental method that eliminated the problems related to osmium preconcentration. This method led to a new evaluation of the concentration of osmium in seawater; the mean concentration of osmium and the 187Os/186Os ratio are equal to 10.86 +/- 0.07 picograms per kilogram and 8.80 +/- 0.07, respectively. The results suggest the existence of an organocomplex that dominates the speciation of osmium in seawater.  相似文献   

Unconditional quantum teleportation   总被引：5，自引：0，他引：5  

A Furusawa  JL Sorensen  SL Braunstein  CA Fuchs  HJ Kimble  ES Polzik 《Science (New York, N.Y.)》1998,282(5389):706-709

Quantum teleportation of optical coherent states was demonstrated experimentally using squeezed-state entanglement. The quantum nature of the achieved teleportation was verified by the experimentally determined fidelity Fexp = 0.58 +/- 0.02, which describes the match between input and output states. A fidelity greater than 0.5 is not possible for coherent states without the use of entanglement. This is the first realization of unconditional quantum teleportation where every state entering the device is actually teleported.  相似文献
