Deformable Attention Multiscale Feature Fusion Network‐Dehaze: An Adaptive Image Dehazing Method Based on Deformable Attention Multiscale Fusion Network

Advanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
This paper presents the deformable attention multiscale feature fusion network‐dehaze adaptive image dehazing network, which integrates three core modules (revised residual shrinkage unit, multiscale attention, cross‐scale feature fusion). It incorporates deformable convolution and multiscale attention mechanisms to address the detail loss issue of ...

Natural stone: artificial ageing test versus natural weathering

, 2017
Natural stone has always been one of the main materials used in architecture for its singular beauty and durability. However, ornamental and structural stone elements might show decay essentially induced by climate factors such as atmospheric pollution, freezing–thaw action, thermal shock or acid rains.

Uncovering renewable energy policy impact channels on land values, the local farm structure, and farmland heterogeneity

American Journal of Agricultural Economics, EarlyView.
Abstract Germany's Renewable Energy Sources Act (REA), enacted in 2000 and subsequently amended, subsidized national renewable energy production with fixed feed‐in tariffs for renewable energy sources (RE) from wind, solar, and biogas. Empirical studies suggest that the policy was creating windfall effects for landowners and attribute farmland use ...

Lost ground, lost value: Investigating the relationship between soil erosion and agricultural land value

American Journal of Agricultural Economics, EarlyView.
Abstract This study examines the impact of soil erosion on agricultural land values in the United States (US) Midwest. Based on a novel county‐level panel data set with information on soil erosion levels and agricultural land values covering five census years (1997, 2002, 2007, 2012, and 2017), we separately investigate the direct effect of two types ...

Spatial Detection of Microsphere Polystyrene Plastics and Molecular Remodeling within a Full‐Body Mouse with MALDI Trapped Ion Mobility Mass Spectrometry Imaging

Angewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
Orally administered polystyrene microplastics accumulate in murine tissues and are detected using MALDI‐MSI with TIMS. Lipid profiling reveals decreases in hexosylceramides, sphingomyelins, and ether‐linked phospholipids, indicating altered metabolism.

How cold is too cold? A theoretical analysis of the optimal trigger for index insurance for frost damage to crops

American Journal of Agricultural Economics, EarlyView.
Abstract Crop insurance is undoubtedly an extremely valuable element in protecting agricultural businesses, but in many cases standard indemnity‐based products have had very low uptake due to high transaction costs elevating premiums to unaffordable levels.

Solar‐Driven Ammonia Synthesis From Nitrate Reduction Paired With CO2 Capture for Sustainable Agriculture via a Robust CuPd Heterojunction

Angewandte Chemie, EarlyView.
Laser‐assisted synthesis of CuPd amorphous/crystalline heterojunction demonstrates >80% Faradaic efficiency for nitrate‐to‐ammonia electroreduction across wide potential windows. The integrated solar‐powered electrolyzer achieves 6% solar‐to‐ammonia energy efficiency at 0.4 sun, 6–20 mg h−1 CO2 capture rate, and stability exceeding 100 h.

Natural language generated weather forecastfrom time series of weather data

, 2014
This thesis intends to determine how people understandand feel about natural language generated sentences, in this case natural language generated forecasts. This was done by building a server that pulled raw weather information from SMHI api, analysed it and generated weather forecasts.For evaluation, a survey was made and from the resulta conclusion ...

Accounting for animal health in efficiency analysis: An application to Swedish dairy farms

American Journal of Agricultural Economics, EarlyView.
Abstract Poor animal health is a central concern in modern livestock production. Despite the necessity to incorporate animal health in efficiency analysis, the theoretical and empirical developments are limited on this subject. This article appropriately characterizes the axiomatic properties of animal health within a production framework.
