A Distributed Multirobot Architecture for Decoupled Inspection and Localized Treatment in Precision Agriculture

Advanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
A distributed multirobot architecture enables asynchronous vineyard inspection and localized treatment through a cloud‐based mission control center. Real‐world validation demonstrates reliable coordination of heterogeneous robots, accurate disease detection, and effective conversion of georeferenced observations into targeted treatment actions ...

Urban decentralization and income inequality: is sprawl associated with rising income segregation across neighborhoods? [PDF]

Existing research shows an inverse relationship between urban density and the degree of income inequality within metropolitan areas; this information suggests that as urban areas spread out, they become increasingly segregated by income.

The role of peri-urban parks in enhancing urban green spaces accessibility in high-density contexts: An environmental justice perspective

Recent years have seen an increasing emphasis on peri-urban parks (PUPs) in urban green spaces (UGS) development, However, little is known about how PUPs moderate overall UGS accessibility and contribute to environmental justice, particularly for high ...

Multi‐Stage Social Value Orientation‐Based Lane‐Changing Driving for Autonomous Vehicles

Advanced Intelligent Systems, EarlyView.
A multi‐stage SVO framework is developed to dynamically infer the social preferences of surrounding vehicles from human driving data. By combining offline learning, online SVO estimation, temporal intention tracking, and interaction‐aware planning, the framework enables autonomous vehicles to adapt lane‐changing decisions and trajectories to evolving ...

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 in aggregation? On the importance of local food price data for food poverty estimates

American Journal of Agricultural Economics, EarlyView.
Abstract This paper explores within‐country variations in food price dynamics and food poverty estimates by employing local market price data and national consumer price index (CPI) data. Our results show that national CPI data may be useful for approximating national trends but they fail to detect and identify spatial variations in local trends, which

Distribution of platinum group elements in urban and peri-urban environment

, 2018
Platinum (Pt), palladium (Pd) and rhodium (Rh) (platinum-group elements; PGEs),are used in automotive catalytic converters to remove harmful emissions from exhaust gas. Nevertheless, nowadays, the PGEs are emerging as new environmental emission contaminators due to their increasing use.
