SATELLITE-BASED MODELS NEED IMPROVEMENTS TO SIMULATING ANNUAL GROSS PRIMARY PRODUCTIVITY: A COMPARISON OF SIX MODELS FOR REGIONAL MODELING OF DECIDUOUS BROADLEAF FORESTS

Modeling vegetation gross primary productivity (GPP) is crucial to understanding the land–atmosphere interactions and, hence, the global carbon cycle.While studies have demonstrated that satellite-based models could well simulate intra-annual variation Suncatcher Ornament of vegetation GPP, there is a need to understand our ability to capture

Visual quality is an important component of indoor environment quality and greatly affects inhabitants’ perception of the living space.Nevertheless, the lighting design of residential buildings is usually underestimated by both designers and standards.This paper presents an integrated index for evaluating the visual quality of an indoor envir

Ar/O plasma irradiation is proposed for post-treatment of vanadium dioxide (VO2) films.Oxidation and surface migration were observed in the VO2 films following irradiation.This combined effect leads to an effective stoichiometry refinement and microstructure reconstruction in the interfacial area.A notable improvement in luminous Cambro Disposable
