Agricultural Vulnerability Assessment: Climate and Non‐Climate Interactions in Crop Production Systems

open access: yesAustralian Journal of Agricultural and Resource Economics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Recent climate phenomena show that Spain is one of the most vulnerable countries to climate change impacts, with varied regional effects from flash floods to drought. This study assesses the vulnerability of four major crops (cereal, rice, grape and olive) in Catalonia to climate change through a comprehensive vulnerability index incorporating

Large block coal detection algorithm for fully mechanized working face based on MES-YOLOv5s

open access: yesGong-kuang zidonghua
The objects in the fully mechanized working face have the features of high-speed motion, multi-scale, occlusion, etc. The existing object detection algorithms have problems such as low precision, large memory of models, and strong hardware dependence. In order to solve the above problems, a large block coal detection algorithm based on MES-YOLOv5s is ...
