Background.Moorlands are strategic ecosystems that provide regulation and provision of water, and that face serious effects due to agricultural activities.Productive reconversion (PR) is a mixed environmental, and economic strategy for managing change in agricultural systems towards sustainable agroecological models.Objective.To investigate the fac
The concentration of greenhouse gases in the atmosphere plays an Electronics important role in the radiative effects in the Earth’s climate system.Therefore, it is crucial to increase the number of atmospheric observations in order to quantify the natural sinks and emission sources.We report in this paper the development of a new compact lightwei
3D gesture recognition and tracking are highly desired features of interaction design in future mobile and smart environments.Specifically, in virtual/augmented reality applications, intuitive interaction with the physical space seems unavoidable and 3D gestural interaction might be the most effective alternative for the current input facilities su
The Guiana Shield in northeastern South America contains some of the largest tracts of intact forests on the globe.Guyana alone has more than 80% forest cover.In south-central Guyana a unique biogeographic feature allows for a hydrological connection between the Guiana Shield with the Amazon basin via the Rupununi savannas and wetlands (Rupununi Po
This study proposes a cattle welfare evaluation method based on multi-modal data fusion, which integrates various data dimensions, such as cattle behavior characteristics, feeding management conditions, and environmental parameters, to achieve a systematic assessment of cattle welfare levels.The method establishes a quantitative scoring system base
