A network-indexbased version of TOPMODEL for use with high-resolution digital topographic data [PDF]
, 2004 This paper describes the preliminary development of a network index approach to modify and to extend the classic TOPMODEL. Application of the basic Beven and Kirkby (1979) form of TOPMODEL to high resolution (2.0 m) laser altimetric data (based upon the ...

Changes in the soil organic carbon balance on China’s cropland during the last two decades of the 20th century [PDF]
, 2017 Agro-ecosystems play an important role in regulating global changes caused by greenhouse gas emissions. Restoration of soil organic carbon (SOC) in agricultural soils can not only improve soil quality but also influence climate change and agronomic ...

A NOVEL RESOURCE CONSTRAINT SECURE(RCS) ROUTING PROTOCOL FOR WIRELESS SENSOR NETWORK [PDF]
Journal of Engineering Science and Technology, 2017 Geographic routing protocols are the most preferred routing protocols for Wireless Sensor Networks (WSN) since they rely on geographic position information. Hence we propose geography based Resource Constraint Secure routing (RCS) protocol.

Ecosystem‐Centered Robot Design: Toward Ecoresorbable Sustainability Robots (ESRs)
Advanced Science, EarlyView.Robots exploring natural ecosystems can support monitoring and conservation, but must adopt ecosystem‐centered design to avoid pollution, waste, and damage. This review proposes guidelines for co‐designing ecoresorbable sustainability robots (ESRs), uniting materials, robotics, and ecological contexts in a single framework.
