Open Dump Simulation for Estimation of Pollution Levels in Wet Tropical Climates

Tropical Agricultural Research, 2011
Leachate management is one of the major issues in rehabilitation of present dumpsites. A field scale ‘lysimeter’ study for open dump simulation of municipal solid waste with 940 kg/m3 placement density was carried out to determine decomposition pattern ...

The Accuracy of RTK enabled Mobile Phones in RTK denied Areas

ISPRS Annals of the Photogrammetry, Remote Sensing and Spatial Information Sciences
Abstract. Surveyors often encounter challenges when tasked with measuring points in regions where buildings disrupt satellite visibility. The precise surveying of points in these areas typically relies on employing total stations. This method effectively extends high precision from unaffected zones (where satellite visibility is assured) to those areas

Control System for the Navigation of the Agricultural Robots: A Review

Journal of Field Robotics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Control systems for the navigation of autonomous agricultural robots—particularly those operating in uneven terrain and in the presence of static or dynamic obstacles—have advanced considerably in recent years. As conventional machinery evolves toward increasingly automated systems, the design of reliable navigation controllers has become ...

Hydrographic survey of a south Florida canal using a hydrolite

Journal of Geodetic Science, 2017
In this study, a hydrographic map of a South Florida canal is prepared using RTK GPS (Real Time Kinematic Global Positioning System) measurements combined with a hydrolite (single beam echo sounder).

Statistical comparison analysis of different real-time kinematic methods for the development of photogrammetric products: CORS-RTK, CORS-RTK + PPK, RTK-DRTK2, and RTK + DRTK2 + GCP

Open Geosciences
Abstract Traditional photogrammetry techniques require the use of Ground Control Points (GCPs) to accurately georeference aerial images captured by unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs). However, the process of collecting GCPs can be time-consuming, labor-intensive, and costly.

Engineered Gravel Trench Hyporheic Exchange to Create Cold‐Water Thermal Refuges

River Research and Applications, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Warming rivers are driving a loss or fragmentation of cold‐water habitat and providing the impetus to develop proactive thermal management approaches to maintain suitable habitat in rivers. One innovative approach is through the creation of cold‐water thermal refuges during periods of thermal stress for aquatic species.

Approximation of sequences of symmetric matrices with the symmetric rank-one algorithm and applications [PDF]

, 2013
The symmetric rank-one update method is well-known in optimization for its applications in the quasi-Newton algorithm. In particular, Conn, Gould, and Toint proved in 1991 that the matrix sequence resulting from this method approximates the Hessian of ...

Ecological Characteristics of Stream Reaches With and Without Low‐Tech Process‐Based Restoration in a Wildfire‐Affected Catchment

River Research and Applications, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Low‐tech process‐based stream restoration (LTPBR) is increasingly implemented following wildfire, underscoring the need to evaluate restoration outcomes in burned catchments. To help address this need, we measured abiotic and biotic characteristics of a reach that received LTPBR, an untreated reach, and a reach with relict beaver activity that

Strategies for Assessing Post‐Wildfire Geomorphic Resilience in Semiarid Rivers

River Research and Applications, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT We review and summarize diverse components of a catchment that can be monitored after wildfire to assess the geomorphic resilience of the river corridor in semiarid regions. We distinguish upland portions of river catchments from river corridors.

Meander‐Bend Erosion Dynamics Along a Gravel‐Bed River: Insights From Short‐Term UAV Monitoring

River Research and Applications, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Riverbank erosion is a natural process in meandering rivers that contributes to sediment supply and geomorphic diversity, yet it can threaten infrastructure and human activities within the floodplain. Recently, many studies have used high‐resolution remote sensing technologies to measure bank erosion, but they often focus on technical aspects ...
