Three-dimensional characterization of fibrous microstructure in meat analogs using micro-computed X-ray tomography/μCT-based granulometry [PDF]

Frontiers in Nutrition
The fibrous microstructure of plant-based meat analogs governs their textural properties, yet quantitative 3D characterization remains limited. In this study, a granulometry-based approach was extended to 3D micro-computed X-ray tomography (μCT) datasets

A Morphological Approach for Granulometry with Application to Image Denoising

, 2007
Granulometry formalizes the intuitive geometric notion of a sieving process. It was initially set oriented to extract size distribution from binary images, and has been extended to function operators to analyze and extract texture features in grey-scale images.

Distribution patterns of microplastics in subtidal sediments from the Sado river estuary and the Arrábida marine park, Portugal

Frontiers in Environmental Science, 2022
Understanding local accumulation patterns of microplastics in subtidal sediments is crucial to assess how available such particles are for ingestion by benthic feeders and to identify the potential pollution sources in the region upon which is urgent to ...

Geochemistry and Sedimentology of a Minerotrophic Peat in a Western Mediterranean Mountain Wilderness Area

Quaternary, 2022
Sedimentological and biogeochemical measurements were conducted on minerotrophic peat in a wilderness area on a granitic plateau to reconstruct the local ecosystem’s history and clarify the peat’s response to local and global changes.

Morphological and Physicochemical Properties of Termite Mounds in the Mixed Deciduous Forests of Thailand

Floresta e Ambiente, 2021
In this study, we surveyed termites in Thailand and characterized the mounds they built in mixed deciduous forests. We analyzed soil samples from termite mounds for moisture, electrical conductivity, temperature, pH, and soil texture.

Relationships between deep-water polychaete fauna and environmental factors in the southeastern Gulf of California, Mexico

Scientia Marina, 2007
Polychaetes inhabiting deep-sea soft bottoms in the southeastern Gulf of California were collected during four oceanographic cruises in 2000 and 2001 at a depth range of 732-2110 m. A total of 84 taxa, representing 32 families, were collected.

Reconstructing the Fluvial History of the Lilas River (Euboea Island, Central West Aegean Sea) from the Mycenaean Times to the Ottoman Period

Geosciences, 2022
This paper aims to reconstruct the alluvial activity for the Lilas river, the second-largest catchment of Euboea Island (Central Western Aegean Sea), for approximately the last three and a half millennia.
