Chlorophyll content mapping of urban vegetation in the city of Valencia based on the hyperspectral NAOC index
2014
Abstract: Spatially distributed chlorophyll content of urban vegetation provides an important indicator of a plant's health status, which might depend on the habitat quality of the specific urban environment. Recent advances in optical remote sensing led to improved methodologies to monitor vegetation properties. The hyperspectral index NAOC (Normalized Area Over reflectance Curve) is one of these new tools that can be used for mapping chlorophyll content. In this paper we present the work done to quantify vegetation chlorophyll content over the city of Valencia (Spain) based on chlorophyll measurements of four representative tree species: the London plane tree (Platanus x. acerifolia), the…
Un modelo no hidrostático global con coordenada vertical basada en altura
2015
Memoria presentada en la Universitat de València para optar grado de de Doctor Esta tesis documenta la investigación que he realizado en modelización atmosférica: se parte de las ecuaciones físicas de la atmósfera y se aplican métodos numéricos eficientes para encontrar una solución a dichas ecuaciones a partir de unas condiciones iniciales dadas. Para este fin, se ha desarrollado un modelo atmosférico cuyas características principales son: espectral en la representación horizontal de los campos, discretización vertical de alto orden de exactitud, y semi-implícito en la integración temporal. Además, el modelo es no hidrostático y tiene una coordenada vertical basada en altura, en vez de la …
New insight about the mural painting branches of Roman baths in Reggio Calabria
2023
The Roman baths in Reggio Calabria (Italy) provides many information regarding both engineering and technology for this type of buildings. A small treasure of three survived mural paintings enclose information about the artistic style and the ancient luxury of the baths. In order to get light on the executive technique and conservation state we performed the investigation of these paintings by following a non invasive approach composed of multispectral imaging and spectroscopic analysis. By so doing we determined the pigment palette and the distribution of some pigments allowing us to make some hypothesis about the executive technique and provide a basis for a future virtual restoration of …
ESR Spectra o f Normal Human Serum after Treatment with Complement Activating Agents*
1980
Abstract We describe the appearance of a free-radical signal in the ESR spectrum of normal human serum incubated with several complement activating agents. The intensity of this signal is dependent of dose of activating agents, time and temperature. Signals elicited by different complement activators differ in morphology and kinetics. Inhibition by treatment with EDTA and the presence of the signal in activated C 6-deficient rabbit serum suggest that the con-vertase forming steps of complement activation (C2 to 5) could be the source of free-radical containing molecules.

Spectral Analysis of Nonrelativistic Quantum Electrodynamics
2001
I review the research results on spectral properties of atoms and molecules coupled to the quantized electromagnetic field or on simplified models of such systems obtained during the past decade. My main focus is on the results I have obtained in collaboration with Jurg Frohlich and Israel Michael Sigal [8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13].
Human Sleep EEG under the Influence of Pulsed Radio Frequency Electromagnetic Fields
2000
Former exploratory investigations of sleep alterations due to global system for mobile communications (GSM) signals have shown a hypnotic and REM-suppressive effect under field exposure. This effect was observed in a first study using a power flux density of 0.5 W/m<sup>2</sup>, and the same trend occurred in a second study with a power flux density of 0.2 W/m<sup>2</sup>. For the present study, we applied a submaximal power flux density of 50 W/m<sup>2</sup>. To investigate putative effects of radio frequency electromagnetic fields (EMFs) of cellular GSM phones on human sleep EEG pattern, all-night polysomnographies of 20 healthy male subjects both with …
The renormalized electron mass in non-relativistic quantum electrodynamics
2007
This work addresses the problem of infrared mass renormalization for a scalar electron in a translation-invariant model of non-relativistic QED. We assume that the interaction of the electron with the quantized electromagnetic field comprises a fixed ultraviolet regularization and an infrared regularization parametrized by $\sigma>0$. For the value $p=0$ of the conserved total momentum of electron and photon field, bounds on the renormalized mass are established which are uniform in $\sigma\to0$, and the existence of a ground state is proved. For $|p|>0$ sufficiently small, bounds on the renormalized mass are derived for any fixed $\sigma>0$. A key ingredient of our proofs is the operator-t…
The Influence of All-Night Exposure to Pulsed Radiofrequency Electromagnetic Fields on Human Sleep. Der Einfluss kontinuierlicher nachtlicher Exposit…
2005
Question of the study The widespread use of mobile telephones has led to public discussion about the putative health hazards as well as scientific interest in the interactions of pulsed, high-frequency electromagnetic fields with physiological systems. This article presents a survey of three consecutive studies carried out by a research group at the University of Mainz.
Numerical procedures and their practical application in PV modules’ analyses. Part II: Useful fractions and APE
2019
Abstract The article regards aspects of PV modules tested with the use of natural sunlight. The analysis of spectral structure of solar energy resources in southern Poland, carried out on the basis of meteorological data originating from SolarLab PW Wroclaw and AGH Krakow, Poland [ 1 ] was used in the article. It is a continuation of the article: Analysis of solar energy resources in southern Poland for photovoltaic applications [ 1 ], describing the method to determine spectral parameters of average photon energy (APE) and useful fraction (UF) with the use of a solar radiation spectrum simulator. This article, however, includes an experimental presentation of their impact on PV conversion …
