O abandono de terras: concepto teórico e consecuencias
(Universidade de Santiago de Compostela, 2008)O abandono de terras e a conseguinte diminución da superficie utilizada pola agricultura constitúe un problema importante nun gran número de rexións da Unión Europea entre as que se atopa Galicia. A posta en marcha do ... -
Above-ground biomass estimation of arable crops using UAV-based SfM photogrammetry
(Taylor & Francis, 2018-12-03)Methods of estimating the total amount of above-ground biomass (AGB) in crop fields are generally based on labourious, random, and destructive in situ sampling. This study proposes a methodology for estimating herbaceous ... -
Alignment of Hyperspectral Images Using KAZE Features
(MDPI, 2018)Image registration is a common operation in any type of image processing, specially in remote sensing images. Since the publication of the scale–invariant feature transform (SIFT) method, several algorithms based on feature ... -
Ambiente e desenvolvemento rural. Proxecto LIFE99 ENV/E/00286 "Rehabilitación Tambre I Proxecto Piloto"
(Universidade de Santiago de Compostela, 2002)Este traballo comenta os aspectos máis significativos do proceso proxectual seguido desde o encargo de realizar unha candidatura á Iniciativa LIFE-MEDIO AMBIENTE, ata a actualidade, cando faltan escasos meses para finaliza-la ... -
An Analysis of Non-State and State Approaches for Forest Certification in Mexico
(MDPI, 2017)Mexico has had a non-state forest certification system under the Forest Stewardship Council (FSC) since it was initiated in 1993, and developed a new state-sponsored Mexican Forest Certification System (MFCS) that began ... -
An environmental evaluation of food supply chain using life cycle assessment: A case study on gluten free biscuit products
(Elsevier, 2018-01)This paper assesses the environmental profile of the biscuit supply chain for producing high quality gluten-free biscuits. Three different types of biscuits were considered. The assessment followed a cradle-to-grave approach ... -
An exploratory data analysis of energy consumption of WWTP. Influencing factors and possible methods for benchmarking
(2016-06-27)Wastewater treatment plants are relevant energy consumers. As they carry out complex operations submitted to large variability caused by, among others, the influent and loading variations, the assessment of the performance ... -
An Ontology-Based Interpretable Fuzzy Decision Support System for Diabetes Diagnosis
(IEEE, 2018)Diabetes is a serious chronic disease. The importance of clinical decision support systems (CDSSs) to diagnose diabetes has led to extensive research efforts to improve the accuracy, applicability, interpretability, and ... -
An optimised control system to steer the transition from anaerobic mono- to co-digestion in full-scale plants
(Royal Society of Chemistry, 2019-05-01)Traditional wastewater treatment plants (WWTPs) are electrical consumers, with a usual high demand in the range of 0.3 to 0.6 kWh/m3 of wastewater treated. Their digesters are commonly oversized, and consequently operated ... -
Analysis of high concentrator photovoltaic modules in outdoor conditions: Influence of direct normal irradiance, air temperature, and air mass
(AIP Publishing, 2014)The study of high concentrator photovoltaic (HCPV) technology under real conditions is essential to understand its real behavior. The influence of direct normal irradiance (DNI), air temperature (Tair), and air mass (AM) ... -
Analytical Model for Crosstalk in p-nwellPhotodiodes
(IEEE, 2015)The response and crosstalk (CTK) of the p-n well photodiode were studied through device simulations performed with ATLAS and experimental data. As a result, a closed-form and explicit 2-D analytical model for its photoresponse ... -
Análisis morfosintáctico y clasificación de entidades nombradas en un entorno Big Data
(Sociedad Española para el Procesamiento del Lenguaje Natural (SEPLN), 2014)Este artículo describe una suite de módulos lingüísticos para el castellano, basado en una arquitectura en tuberías, que incluye tareas de análisis morfosintáctico así como de reconocimiento y clasificación de entidades ... -
Arranque de un digestor anaerobio tubular vertical para la depuración de aguas residuales con obtención de biogás
(Infoedita, 2013-06)El estudio consistió en la puesta en marcha de un nuevo reactor a escala de laboratorio para depurar en anaerobiosis un sustrato líquido de elevada DQO, obteniéndose efluente depurado y biogás. La eficacia depuradora en ... -
Assessing site quality using the National Forest Inventory
(2017-06-28)Site productivity of forests is often evaluated thorough the site quality. Different indices can be used to measure site quality but the site index (relationship between dominant height and age) is the most employed. ... -
Assessment, Design and Implementation of a Private Cloud for MapReduce Applications
(OALib, 2014)Scientific computation and data intensive analyses are ever more frequent. On the one hand, the MapReduce programming model has gained a lot of attention for its applicability in large parallel data analyses and Big Data ... -
Automatic detection of pulmonary nodules: Evaluation of performance using two different MDCT scanners
(Sciedu Press, 2012)The purpose of this study was to evaluate the diagnostic performance of a computer-aided diagnosis (CAD) system, on the detection of pulmonary nodules in multidetector row computed tomography (MDCT) images, by using two ... -
