Three-dimensional (3D) imaging technology based on antenna array is one of the most important 3D synthetic aperture radar (SAR) high resolution imaging modes.In this paper, a novel 3D imaging method is proposed for airborne down-looking sparse array SAR based on the imaging geometry and the characteristic of echo signal.The key point of 7NBK the pr
The olive tree: a paradigm for drought tolerance in Mediterranean climates
Olive trees (<i>Olea europaea</i> L.) are commonly grown in the Mediterranean basin where prolonged droughts may occur during the vegetative period.This species has developed a series of physiological mechanisms, that can be observed in several plants of the Mediterranean macchia, to tolerate drought stress and grow under adverse climat
Genome-wide analysis of HSP20 gene family and expression patterns under heat stress in cucumber (Cucumis sativus L.)
Cucumber is an important vegetable in China, and its yield and cultivation area are among the largest in the world.Excessive temperatures lead to high-temperature disorder in cucumber.Heat shock protein 20 (HSP20), an essential protein in the process of plant growth and development, is a universal protective protein with stress resistance.HSP20 pla
Pharmacometabolomics of Bronchodilator Response in Asthma and the Role of Age-Metabolite Interactions
The role of metabolism in modifying age-related differential responses to asthma medications is insufficiently understood.The objective of this study was to determine the role of the metabolome in modifying the effect of age on bronchodilator response (BDR) in individuals with asthma.We used longitudinal measures of BDR and plasma metabolomic profi
Running experiments on Amazon Mechanical Turk
Although Mechanical Turk has recently become popular among social scientists as a source of experimental data, doubts may linger about Sterilization Packaging the quality of data provided by subjects recruited from online labor markets.We address these potential concerns by presenting new demographic data about the Mechanical Turk subject populatio
