Software to Support Remote Sensing of River Discharge Based on Critical Flow Theory
ABSTRACT Water resource management requires accurate observations of streamflow but standard field methods for measuring river discharge (Q$$ Q $$) can be costly and hazardous for equipment and personnel. Remote sensing has become a viable alternative, but many image‐based techniques require field data for calibration, and depth and velocity can seldom

Modeling of aircraft jet noise in airports
A mathematical model with 4 degree of freedom created in Matlab for aircraft final landing trajectory is described in this paper. A midsize commercial passenger aircraft similar to an Airbus A320 has been chosen as a reference aircraft. The parameters of

Liability for Damage caused due to Aircraft Noise
The article is devoted to the modern practical questions of air traffic international regulation. Aircraft noise has always been the primary environmental concern, and nowadays there is a great demand for drafting uniform provisions on harmonization of ...

Agenda toward the development of a rational noise descriptor system relevant to human annoyance by en route aircraft noise [PDF]
A rational, internationally consistent, noise descriptor system is needed to express existing and predicted en route aircraft noise levels in terms closely correlated to the annoyance perceived by people and physiologically identifiable in people, to ...

Spectral characterization of plant diversity in a biodiversity‐enriched oil palm plantation
How well can airborne imaging spectroscopy detect plant diversity in vertically complex agroforestry systems? We tested this in a biodiversity‐enriched oil palm plantation in Sumatra, Indonesia, using high‐resolution hyperspectral data. We calculated spectral alpha and beta diversity and compared them to field‐based plant diversity.

New developments in blown flap noise technology [PDF]
The noise technology relating to blown-flap systems is reviewed. There are three general sources of noise: turbomachinery, airframe, and the interaction noise of the jet blowing on the flaps.

Ground‐truthing of satellite imagery to assess seabird colony size: A test using Adélie penguins
Adélie penguin colony size can be estimated from space using very high‐resolution (VHR; 0.3–0.6 m resolution) satellite imagery due to the contrast between their guano stain and the surrounding terrain. Our study assessed the utility of VHR imagery for making indirect assessments of changes in colony size.

Design and test of aircraft engine isolators for reduced interior noise [PDF]
Improved engine vibration isolation was proposed to be the most weight and cost efficient retrofit structure-borne noise control measure for single engine general aviation aircraft.

Targeted conservation measures are contingent on robust knowledge of spatio‐temporal animal distribution in areas of interest. We explore unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) transect monitoring as a novel method for standardized digital aerial surveys of marine megafauna by investigating the fine‐resolution spatio‐temporal distribution of harbour porpoises ...
