Recent Transformer-based works can generate high-quality captions for remote sensing images (RSIs).However, these methods generally feed global or grid visual features to a Transformer-based captioning Mullein model for associating cross-modal information, which limits performance.In this work, we investigate unexplored ideas for remote sensing ima
Benefits of Native Mycorrhizal Amendments to Perennial Agroecosystems Increases with Field Inoculation Density
Perennial polyculture cropping systems Evaporator with Defrost Element are a novel agroecological approach used to mirror some of the ecological benefits provided by native perennial ecosystems including increased carbon and nitrogen storage, more stable soils, and reduced anthropogenic input.Plants selected for perennial agroecosystems are often c
Guidelines for responsible short-term global health activities: developing common principles
Abstract Background Growing concerns about the value and effectiveness of short-term volunteer trips intending to improve health in underserved Global South communities has driven the development of guidelines by multiple organizations and individuals.These are intended to mitigate potential harms and maximize benefits associated with such efforts.
A Tool for Pre-Operational Daily Mapping of Floods and Permanent Water Using Sentinel-1 Data
An automated tool for pre-operational mapping of floods and inland waters using Sentinel-1 data is presented.The acronym AUTOWADE (AUTOmatic Water Areas DEtector) is used to denote it.The tool provides the end user (Italian Department of Civil Protection) with a continuous, near real-time (NRT) monitoring of the extent of inland water surfaces (flo
