Mechanism Analysis and Optimal Design of Return Impact of a Certain Aircraft Canopy Actuator

open access: yesActuators
During the closure of a specific aircraft canopy, oil leakage occurs from the pressure tank’s overflow port in the gas–liquid control system. This issue often occurs during closure, potentially leading to reduced system oil and impacting the normal ...

Forest Net Primary Production Resistance Across a Gradient of Moderate Disturbance [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
The global carbon (C) balance is vulnerable to disturbances that alter terrestrial C uptake and loss. Moderate disturbances that kill or defoliate only a subset of canopy trees such as insect defoliation, drought, and age-related senescence are ...

Arboreal camera trapping reveals diel-vertical migrations in arboreal wildlife of the Peruvian Amazon rainforest

open access: yesEnvironmental Research: Ecology
Tropical forests harbor much of Earth’s biodiversity, with the ground to emergent canopy forming dynamic three-dimensional habitats. Arboreal and semi-arboreal species navigate the vertically heterogeneous environment, in temperature, light, predation ...

The Montado agroforestry system microclimatic specificity in the context of global change [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
The effects of oak trees on microclimatic parameters in Quercus rotundifolia Lam. woodland in the Alentejo, Southern Portugal, are reported. Results show that oak tree create a marked differentiation in the grass matrix, between open and undercanopy ...

Optimizing the Remote Detection of Tropical Rainforest Structure with Airborne Lidar: Leaf Area Profile Sensitivity to Pulse Density and Spatial Sampling

open access: yesRemote Sensing, 2019
Airborne Laser Scanning (ALS) has been considered as a primary source to model the structure and function of a forest canopy through the indicators leaf area index (LAI) and vertical canopy profiles of leaf area density (LAD).

Rice panicle temperature and crop microclimate in stressful thermal environments: toward a model of spikelet sterility [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Rice inflorescences are sensitive to chilling and heat, resulting in spikelet sterility. It is not the air temperature itself, however, that causes the stress but the temperature of the sensitive tissues during specific developmental stages.

Royal canopy over the church entrance: Forms, spatial contexts, iconographic programs, and meaning of the dome in Serbian narthexes of the 14th century [PDF]

open access: yesZbornik Radova Filozofskog Fakulteta u Prištini
The churches commissioned by King (later Emperor) Stephen Dušan, his important dignitaries, and later Serbian rulers-e.g., Holy Archangels near Prizren, Lesnovo, Hilandar, Markov Manastir, Ravanica, and Manasija-often have a narthex or an entrance porch ...

Comparison of forest attributes derived from two terrestrial lidar systems. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Terrestrial lidar (TLS) is an emerging technology for deriving forest attributes, including conventional inventory and canopy characterizations. However, little is known about the influence of scanner specifications on derived forest parameters.

Les lits de Louis XIII à Versailles. Entre sobriété et majesté : manifeste d’un dessein royal

open access: yesIn Situ, 2019
Louis XIII’s beds at Versailles are not the best-known ones in the history of the palace. No pictures of them survive but other archival and printed sources allow us to analyse them and to study their usages and symbolic values.
