The terrestrial measurements using Electronic Distance Measurement (EDM) have been widely done for different applications such as deformation monitoring and establishing geodetic networks.The calibration of the EDMs reflects the quality of the estimated parameters.In geodesy, least squares principle is mainly used for estimating parameters.The leas
This article offers a short reconstruction of the Leipzig Trial (1933), from Stamping the Reichstag fire, trough the imprisonment of the accused, to the trial itself.We paid particular attention to one of the accused, the Bulgarian Georgi Dimitrov (leading figure of Komintern) who was able, thanks to a tireless and hazardous Armored Vehicle Kit sel
The cocoa pod borer (CPB), Conopomorpha cramerella, is a major economic pest of cocoa, Theobroma cacao, in Southeast Asia.CPB monitoring programs currently use a costly synthetic pheromone lure attractive to males.Field trapping experiments demonstrating an effective plant-based alternative are presented in this study.Five lychee-based products wer
Increasingly, Chinese cities are proposing city-scale ventilation corridors (VCs) to strengthen wind velocities and decrease pollution concentrations, although their influences are ambiguous.To assess VC impacts, an effort has been made to predict the impact of VC solutions in the high density and diverse land use of the coastal city of Shanghai, C
