The Bazaar as a Model for Knowledge Work

Knowledge and Process Management, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This paper presents fieldwork that extends existing metaphors of knowledge work as a process shaped by hierarchical or market forces. A qualitative, ethnographic study of six knowledge‐intensive businesses in two countries identifies striking parallels with the Middle Eastern bazaar in contrast to Western impersonal markets and hierarchies.

A Triple Collocation-Based Comparison of Three L-Band Soil Moisture Datasets, SMAP, SMOS-IC, and SMOS, Over Varied Climates and Land Covers

Frontiers in Water, 2021
Soil moisture plays an important role in the hydrologic water cycle. Relative to in-situ soil moisture measurements, remote sensing has been the only means of monitoring global scale soil moisture in near real-time over the past 40 years.

Review and assessment of latent and sensible heat flux accuracy over the global oceans [PDF]

, 2017
For over a decade, several research groups have been developing air-sea heat flux information over the global ocean, including latent (LHF) and sensible (SHF) heat fluxes over the global ocean.

Reflections on Comparative Teaching in Public Administration

Public Administration and Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT This article integrates our scholarly experience of teaching comparative public administration. In doing so, we offer a unique perspective as the co‐authors carry several diverse attributes, among them their countries of origin, current country in which they are teaching, and their academic experience.

Terrain classification by cluster analisys [PDF]

, 1988
The digital terrain modelling can be obtained by different methods belonging to two principal categories: deterministic methods (e.g. polinomial and spline functions interpolation, Fourier spectra) and stochastic methods (e.g.

Digitalising biodiversity: Exploring perceptions on risks and opportunities

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Digitalisation is transforming biodiversity conservation, offering new opportunities for research, governance and public engagement. Herbarium digitisation, for example, enables large‐scale access to plant data, supporting conservation, restoration and sustainable use.

Intercomparison of Leaf Area Index Products Derived from Satellite Data over the Heihe River Basin

Remote Sensing
The leaf area index (LAI) is a crucial parameter for climate change research, agricultural management, and ecosystem monitoring. Despite extensive use of remote sensing data to estimate the LAI, comprehensive evaluations of product consistency and ...

Extended triple collocation: estimating errors and correlation coefficients with respect to an unknown target [PDF]

, 2014
Calibration and validation of geophysical measurement systems typically require knowledge of the true value of the target variable. However, the data considered to represent the true values often include their own measurement errors, biasing calibration,

Speciation with gene flow

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Biodiversity is threatened by human activities, with extinction debt accumulating rapidly. Many of these activities change the connectivity of populations, fragmenting existing population systems or bringing previously isolated populations or species into contact.

Interpretation of AIRS Data in Thin Cirrus Atmospheres Based on a Fast Radiative Transfer Model [PDF]

, 2007
A thin cirrus cloud thermal infrared radiative transfer model has been developed for application to cloudy satellite data assimilation. This radiation model was constructed by combining the Optical Path Transmittance (OPTRAN) model, developed for the ...
