Application of the Monte Carlo Method in Modeling Transport and Acceleration of Solar Energetic Particles [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2022
The need for quantitative characterization of the solar energetic particle (SEP) dynamics goes beyond being an academic discipline only. It has numerous practical implications related to human activity in space. The terrestrial magnetic field shields the International Space Station (ISS) and most uncrewed missions from exposure to SEP radiation ...

Astronomical Site Ranking Based on Tropospheric Wind Statistics [PDF]

open access: yesMon.Not.Roy.Astron.Soc. 356 (2005) 849-858, 2004
We present comprehensive and reliable statistics of high altitude wind speeds and the tropospheric flows at the location of five important astronomical observatories. Statistical analysis exclusively of high altitude winds point to La Palma as the most suitable site for adaptive optics, with a mean value of 22.13 m/s at the 200 mbar pressure level.

Spatial Patterns of Pulmonary Tuberculosis Analysing Rainfall Patterns in Visual Formation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Management sustainability related tuberculosis patient treatment was limited. Tuberculosis analysis was still in the form of data aggregation. This is cross sectional survey using geographical information system, analyzed by descriptive methods, the ...

Spatio-temporal disparities of Clonorchis sinensis infection in animal hosts in China: a systematic review and meta-analysis

open access: yesInfectious Diseases of Poverty, 2023
Background Clonorchis sinensis, one of the most important food-borne zoonotic trematodes, remains prevalent in China. Understanding its infection status in animals is crucial for controlling human clonorchiasis.

Widespread signals of convergent adaptation to high altitude in Asia and America [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Living at high-altitude is one of the most difficult challenges that humans had to cope with during their evolution. Whereas several genomic studies have revealed some of the genetic bases of adaptations in Tibetan, Andean and Ethiopian populations, relatively little evidence of convergent evolution to altitude in different continents has accumulated ...

Cognitive function and mood at high altitude following acclimatization and use of supplemental oxygen and adaptive servoventilation sleep treatments. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Impairments in cognitive function, mood, and sleep quality occur following ascent to high altitude. Low oxygen (hypoxia) and poor sleep quality are both linked to impaired cognitive performance, but their independent contributions at high altitude remain

Chemical safety problems

open access: yesConservation Science in Cultural Heritage, 2012
A situation of chemical safety is reached when the effects of organic, inorganic and organometallic toxic substances enable people to maintain good health and to preserve the biodiversity of ecosystems.

On the Survival of High-Altitude Open Clusters within the Milky Way Galaxy Tides [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
It is a common assumption that high-altitude open clusters live longer compared with clusters moving close to the Galactic plane. This is because at high altitudes, open clusters are far from the disruptive effects of in-plane substructures, such as spiral arms, molecular clouds and the bar.

Medical Implications of Space Radiation Exposure Due to Low Altitude Polar Orbits [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Space radiation research has progressed rapidly in recent years, but there remain large uncertainties in predicting and extrapolating biological responses to humans.

Towards Robust Drone Vision in the Wild [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2022
The past few years have witnessed the burst of drone-based applications where computer vision plays an essential role. However, most public drone-based vision datasets focus on detection and tracking. On the other hand, the performance of most existing image super-resolution methods is sensitive to the dataset, specifically, the degradation model ...
