ON ROTATIONAL INVARIANCE OF HIGHER-ORDER MOMENTS OF REGULAR POLYHEDRA
Facta Universitatis. Series: Architecture and Civil EngineeringThis paper covers aspects of establishing a relationship between the highest-order rotation-invariant moments of inertia and the order of symmetry of Platonic polyhedra. Moments of inertia about arbitrary, but centroidal axes are considered.

Responses of Water Use Efficiency to Drought in Southwest China
Remote Sensing, 2020 Water use efficiency (WUE) measures the tradeoff between carbon uptake and water consumption in terrestrial ecosystems. It remains unclear how the responses of WUE to drought vary with drought severity.

Assessment of MISR and MODIS cloud top heights through inter-comparison with a back-scattering lidar at SIRTA [PDF]
, 2004 One year of back-scattering lidar cloud boundaries and optical depth were analysed for coincident inter-comparison with the latest processed versions of the NASA-TERRA MISR stereo and MODIS CO2-slicing operational cloud top heights. Optically thin clouds

Estimating the fractional cover of growth forms and bare surface in savannas. A multi-resolution approach based on regression tree ensembles [PDF]
, 2013 Evaluations of existing land cover maps have revealed that high landscape heterogeneity and small patch sizes are a major reason for misclassification.

Stabilising Repair in Psychological Science
European Journal of Social Psychology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Psychological science has responded to the WEIRD critique through a broad agenda of inclusion, expanding the diversity of research participants, international collaborations and systems of scholarly recognition. While these reforms have generated important gains, concerns about epistemic inequality persist.

Automated Plantation Mapping in Southeast Asia Using MODIS Data and Imperfect Visual Annotations
Remote Sensing, 2020 Expansion of large-scale tree plantations for commodity crop and timber production is a leading cause of tropical deforestation. While automated detection of plantations across large spatial scales and with high temporal resolution is critical to inform ...
