Structural and Thermal Characteristics of Buriti Tree Gum (Mauritia flexuosa). [PDF]

Polymers (Basel), 2023
A polysaccharide was isolated from the exudate of a buriti tree trunk (Mauritia flexuosa). The molecular structure, thermal stability, morphology, crystallinity, and elemental composition of the product were investigated through spectroscopic techniques, such as Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR 1H and 13C),

Mauritia flexuosa palm trees airborne mapping with deep convolutional neural network. [PDF]

Sci Rep, 2021
Abstract Accurately mapping individual tree species in densely forested environments is crucial to forest inventory. When considering only RGB images, this is a challenging task for many automatic photogrammetry processes. The main reason for that is the spectral similarity between species in RGB scenes, which can
