The Hyperspectral Imager for the Coastal Ocean (HICO) presently onboard the International Space Station (ISS) is an imaging spectrometer designed for remote sensing of coastal waters. The instrument is not equipped with any onboard spectral and radiometric calibration devices. Here we describe vicarious calibration techniques that have been used in...
The Hyperspectral Imager for the Coastal Ocean (HICO) is the first spaceborne hyperspectral sensor designed specifically for the coastal ocean and estuarial, riverine, or other shallow-water areas. The HICO generates hyperspectral images, primarily over the 400–900 nm spectral range, with a ground sample distance of ≈90 m (at nadir) and a high...

This text was written for the purpose of explaining the use of the engineer's transit, theodolite, engineer's level and plane table in the solution of fundamental problems related to Forest Engineering. While the use of the infrared and electronic distance measuring instruments do have a place in Forest Engineering, they...
Non-coding ribonucleic acid (ncRNA) is of interest for its diverse roles in cell and viral biology. RNA molecules vary greatly in terms of size, structure, and function. In recent years, the modification of existing RNA structures has been used for biochemical methods of enormous impact including CRISPR and RNAi methods....
Premature birth interrupts the typical development of the human fetus, leaving the infant born with underdeveloped gastrointestinal and immune systems. Preterm infants have reduced stomach acidity, reduced digestive protease activity, more permeable intestinal membranes, impaired innate and adaptive immune response, and poor microbiome development. Due to these factors, preterm infants...
