The spatial pattern of soil bulk density in the grasslands of northern China largely remains undefined, which raised uncertainty in understanding and modeling various soil processes in large spatial scale. Based on the measured data of soil bulk density ...

Leveraged by a large-scale diffusion of sensing networks and scanning devices in modern cities, huge volumes of geo-referenced urban data are collected every day. Such an amount of information is analyzed to discover data-driven models, which can be expl...

Many machine learning problem domains, such as the detection of fraud, spam, outliers, and anomalies, tend to involve inherently imbalanced class distributions of samples. However, most classification algorithms assume equivalent sample sizes for each cl...

The composite of ceria has been widely studied as an electrode material for supercapacitors applications due to its high energy density. Herein, we synthesize CeO2/NiO nanocomposite via a hydrothermal route and explore its different aspects using various...

The only regional evaluation of Lebanese wind-energy potential (National Wind Atlas) dates back to 2011 and was carried out by a United Nations agency. In this work, data from the most recent reanalysis (ERA5) developed at the European Center for Medium ...

The accurate first-principles prediction of the energetic properties of molecules and clusters from efficient semilocal density functionals is of broad interest. Here we study the performance of a non-empirical Tao-Mo (TM) density functional on binding e...

Wood density profiles reveal a tree’s life strategy and growth. Density profiles are, however, rarely defined in terms of tissue fractions for wood of tropical angiosperm trees. Here, we aim at linking these fractions to corresponding density profi...

Tiller density is indicative of the overall health of winter wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) and is used to determine in-season nitrogen (N) application. If tiller density exceeds 538 tillers per m2 at GS 25, then an N application at that stage is not neede...

We analyzed variations in three tree properties: tissue density, carbon fraction, and carbon density within bole tissues of nine Californian conifer species. Model performance for all three tree properties was significantly improved with the addition of ...

Assessing the influence of urban density on surface runoff volume is vital for guiding the built-form expansions toward flood-resilient cities. This paper attempts to develop a spatial simulation framework to assess the impact of urban density on the lev...
