Solidarity Purchasing Groups in Italy: A critical assessment of their effects on the marginalisation of their suppliers [PDF]

, 2018
Over the last twenty years, Alternative Food Networks (AFN) have become increasingly successful at reducing the length of the chain that connects food production and consumption in an attempt to counteract the impact of the contradictions of the ...

Accuracy studies for TDOA and TOA localization

, 2022
S.408-415In sensor networks, passive localization can be performed by exploiting the received signals of unknown emitters. In this paper, the Time of Arrival (TOA) measurements are investigated.

Top-of-the-atmosphere shortwave flux estimation from satellite observations: an empirical neural network approach applied with data from the A-train constellation [PDF]

Atmospheric Measurement Techniques, 2016
Estimates of top-of-the-atmosphere (TOA) radiative flux are essential for the understanding of Earth's energy budget and climate system. Clouds, aerosols, water vapor, and ozone (O3) are among the most important atmospheric agents impacting the Earth's ...

Clinical Outcomes and Acute Exacerbation Incidence in Combined Pulmonary Fibrosis and Emphysema

Respirology, EarlyView.
This multicentre prospective study of 1016 patients demonstrated that CPFE, defined as ≥ 5% emphysema on visual CT assessment, identified a high‐risk phenotype with significantly worse 5‐year survival compared to non‐CPFE IIP patients (51.4% vs. 63.1%) and COPD patients (51.4% vs. 84.0%) and higher acute exacerbation incidence, validating international

Next-generation angular distribution models for top-of-atmosphere radiative flux calculation from CERES instruments: validation [PDF]

Atmospheric Measurement Techniques, 2015
Radiative fluxes at the top of the atmosphere (TOA) from the Clouds and the Earth's Radiant Energy System (CERES) instrument are fundamental variables for understanding the Earth's energy balance and how it changes with time.

Extending reliability to intensive longitudinal data with the Kalman filter

British Journal of Mathematical and Statistical Psychology, EarlyView.
Abstract Reliability is central to how researchers approach measurement in standard, group‐based analyses of single‐time‐point data, yet this critical aspect is often overlooked in the analysis of repeated observations. Since its inception, reliability has been a between‐person concept, but we redevelop this notion for within‐person designs by ...

Kā pao te tōrea: Opportunities to Improve Oral Health Services for Māori

Community Dentistry and Oral Epidemiology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective Colonisation continues to shape Indigenous health outcomes today. Māori are the Indigenous people of Aotearoa New Zealand, and experience barriers to accessing care and a greater prevalence of dental caries, periodontal diseases, and tooth loss compared with non‐Māori.

Toku toa, he toa rangatira (My courage is inherited)

DAT Journal, 1969
Primarily relying on critical Kaupapa Māori analysis and comparing the existing and prospective fields of knowledge, this article considers the potential of Indigenous research as a collective of holistic research strategies. It underlines some of the challenges associated with implementing Indigenous knowledge and diverting from disciplinary norms ...
