Multi-Model Estimation of Forest Canopy Closure by Using Red Edge Bands Based on Sentinel-2 Images [PDF]
In remote sensing, red edge bands are important indicators for monitoring vegetation growth. To examine the application potential of red edge bands in forest canopy closure estimation, three types of commonly used models—empirical statistical models (multiple stepwise regression (MSR)), machine learning models (back propagation neural network (BPNN ...

Synthesis and properties of Co-doped titanate nanotubes and their optical sensitization with methylene blue [PDF]
Here we report on a novel chemical route to synthesize homogenous cobalt doped titanate nanotubes (CoTNT), using an amorphous Co-doped precursor. The influence of the synthesis temperature, autoclave dwell time and metal doping on the structural and ...

Early Dust Formation and a Massive Progenitor for SN 2011ja? [PDF]
SN 2011ja was a bright (I = -18.3) Type II supernova occurring in the nearby edge on spiral galaxy NGC 4945. Flat-topped and multi-peaked H-alpha and H-beta spectral emission lines appear between 64 - 84 days post-explosion, indicating interaction with a

Influence of metal (Ag, Cd, Cu)-doping on the optical properties of ZnO nanopowder: Variation of band gap [PDF]
Metal doped ZnO (MZO, metal = Ag, Cd, Cu) with different metal ion doped concentrations were synthesized by sol-gel method. The structural and optical properties were characterized by UVâVis spectroscopy and Fourier transform infrared (FT-IR).

Emission bands of nitrogen-implantation induced luminescent centers in ZnO crystals: experiment and theory [PDF]
High quality ZnO crystals with the sharp band-edge excitonic emission and very weak green emission were implanted by nitrogen ions. An additional red emission band was observed in the as-implanted ZnO crystal and investigated as a function of temperature.

COMPARING BROAD-BAND AND RED EDGE-BASED SPECTRAL VEGETATION INDICES TO ESTIMATE NITROGEN CONCENTRATION OF CROPS USING CASI DATA [PDF]
In recent decades, many spectral vegetation indices (SVIs) have been proposed to estimate the leaf nitrogen concentration (LNC) of crops. However, most of these indices were based on the field hyperspectral reflectance.
