Kronos: A Java-Based Software System For The Processing And Retrieval Of Large Scale Avhrr Data, Z. Zhang, J. Jájá, D.A. Bader, S. Kalluri, H. Song, N.Z. El Saleous, E. Vermote, J.R.G. Townshend

Electrical & Computer Engineering Technical Reports

At regional scales, satellite-based sensors are the primary source of information to study the earths environment, as they provide the needed dynamic temporal view of the earth's surface. Raw satellite orbit data have to be processed and mapped into a standard projection to produce multitemporal data sets which can then be used for regional or global earth science studies. In this paper, we describe a software system Kronos for the generation of custom-tailored data products from the Advanced Very High Resolution Radiometer (AVHRR) sensor. Kronos allows the generation of a rich set of products that can be easily specified through …

Religious Culture And Political Action, Richard L. Wood

Sociology Faculty and Staff Publications

Recent work by political sociologists and social movement theorists extend our understanding of how religious institutions contribute to expanding democracy, but nearly all analyze religious institutions as institutions; few focus directly on what religion qua religion might contribute. This article strives to illuminate the impact of religious culture per se, extending recent work on religion and democratic life by a small group of social movement scholars trained also in the sociology of religion. In examining religions democratic impact, an explicitly cultural analysis inspired by the new approach to political culture developed by historical sociologists and cultural analysts of democracy is …

Missouri Law Review

At the dawn of the new millennium, the mysteries of the human genome' are being revealed: A working draft of ninety percent of the human genome sequence is expected to be completed by mid-2000, five years ahead of schedule.2 Few endeavors in human history have promised so much while causing so much concern.

Study Of Subrogation Mostly In Letter Of Credit And Other Abstract Obligation Transactions, A, John F. Dolan

Missouri Law Review

While efficiency analysis would leave the loss on the erring bank, the revised version of Article 5 of the Uniform Commercial Code ("Revised Article 5") includes a provision granting subrogation to letter of credit issuers as if they were sureties.2 Some commentators view this statutory provision as a surefire source of subrogation for the banks. This Article mounts an argument to the contrary. Because subrogation is an equitable remedy resting on an unjust enrichment standard,3 this Article contends that bank issuers must make an unjust enrichment case before they can avail themselves of the subrogation remedy, even under Revised Article …

Missouri's Mystifying Doctrine Of Sovereign Immunity: The Imposition Of Duty Under The Dangerous Condition Exception, Stacy L. Nagel

Missouri Law Review

In Missouri, the doctrine of sovereign immunity has been plagued with confusion. Much of this confusion has resulted from wrangling between the Missouri Supreme Court and the legislature. Statutes offering little guidance have been developed, and hard to reconcile cases have been produced. Perhaps nowhere is this confusion more evident than in the area of tort liability under the "dangerous condition" exception to sovereign immunity. Martin v. Missouri Highway & Transportation Department is a prime example of the bewilderment bred by Missouri's statute of sovereign immunity and particularly the "dangerous condition" exception. The Martin court discusses the conditions under which …

Premises Liability: The Disappearance Of The Open And Obvious Doctrine, Ann K. Dittmeier

Missouri Law Review

In the past, landowners were sovereign over their land, and they were immune from liability for accidents that occurred on their land.2 One doctrine that reflects this limited liability is the open and obvious rule, which states that landowners have no duty of care to protect someone on their premises from an open and obvious condition The traditional rule has recently been modified in many jurisdictions to disallow a landowner from asserting an open and obvious condition as a complete defense.4 The modified version holds occupiers liable if they reasonably could have anticipated that the invitee would encounter the danger …

Vegetation Trend In The Fitzroy Region. An Analysis Of 1995 And 1998 Ground Monitoring Data., Noelene Duckett, Paul Novelly, Ian Watson, National Landcare Program (Australia), Csiro

Research Reports

This document summarises the analyses carried out on the ground monitoring data from the Kimberley region of Western Australia as part of the Natural Heritage Trust project 953024 - ‘'Development of Information Products for Reporting Rangeland Changes.”

This project has been investigating ways of integrating rangeland trend information collated from Landsat satellite data and site-specific ground vegetation data. This has been carried out by extending and refining previous approaches developed by Agriculture Western Australia and CSIRO Mathematical and Information Sciences (e.g. Wallace et al. 1994). The principal objective of the project is to develop useful information products which …

Bulletin 4396 - Byenup Hill Focus Catchment Benefit: Cost Analysis, Allan Herbert

Bulletins 4000 -

The main text of this document concentrates on the costs of the proposed strategies, and the on-farm financial benefits from forecast production changes - in particular the production differences between the 'do nothing' and 'with strategy' scenarios.

Members of the catchment group indicated however that their main focus was on preserving their capital base. Hence some discussion of the values of land lost to salt and premiums/discounts for 'landcared' vs 'unlandcared' land appears later in the report. Economics literature suggests that including changes in land values into these analyses is incorrect. It is argued that production differences are actually captured …

Zbroker: A Query Routing Broker For Z39.50 Databases, Yong Lin, Jian Xu, Ee Peng Lim, Wee-Keong Ng

Research Collection School Of Computing and Information Systems

A query routing broker is a software agent that determines from a large set of accessing information sources the ones most relevant to a user's information need. As the number of information sources on the Internet increases dramatically, future users will have to rely on query routing brokers to decide a small number of information sources to query without incurring too much query processing overheads. In this paper, we describe a query routing broker known as ZBroker developed for bibliographic database servers that support the Z39.50 protocol. ZBroker samples the content of each bibliographic database by using training queries and …

After lunch four of the deminers were tasked to build a bridge over a creek to allow better access to the area being cleared. The remaining deminer and the supervisor cleared a one metre wide lane in order to examine a tripwire that had been spotted outside the working area. When they got close to the tripwire the supervisor took over clearance and worked for 20 minutes. Then he "stood up, turned around and requested two more small pickets to mark his lane". While doing this he "lost his footing" and took a step backwards over his base stick with …
