Ecological quality as a coffee quality enhancer. A review. [PDF]

open access: yesAgron Sustain Dev, 2023
As both coffee quality and sustainability become increasingly important, there is growing interest in understanding how ecological quality affects coffee quality. Here we analyze, for the first time, the state of evidence that ecological quality, in terms of biodiversity and ecosystem functions, impacts the quality of Coffea arabica and C.

Economic Development, Fiscal Ecological Compensation, and Ecological Environment Quality

open access: yesInternational Journal of Environmental Research and Public Health, 2022
Focusing on the exploration of the important role of fiscal ecological compensation in green development, this paper incorporates fiscal ecological compensation into the analytical framework of green development. Based on samples of data from county areas in China in 2017 and 2018, this paper empirically examines the shape of the green development ...

Ecological validity and the evaluation of speech summarization quality [PDF]

open access: yes2012 IEEE Spoken Language Technology Workshop (SLT), 2012
There is little evidence of widespread adoption of speech summarization systems. This may be due in part to the fact that the natural language heuristics used to generate summaries are often optimized with respect to a class of evaluation measures that, while computationally and experimentally inexpensive, rely on subjectively selected gold standards ...

Water Benefit-Based Ecological Index for Urban Ecological Environment Quality Assessments [PDF]

open access: yesIEEE Journal of Selected Topics in Applied Earth Observations and Remote Sensing, 2021
Urbanization and climate change cause the urban ecological environment to become increasingly dependent on water. However, open water areas and green spaces in cities are constantly decreasing, making water resources increasingly scarce. There is an urgent need for a method that aligns with the current urban status and can quickly assess the urban ...

Sensitivity of sheltered mudflats to wind events

open access: yesFrontiers in Earth Science, 2022
The impact of waves on the morphological changes of sheltered mudflats is less well studied compared to that on open flats. To investigate the sensitivity of low-energy sheltered mudflats to hydrodynamics such as waves, we carried out in situ ...
