MAPPING FINE-SCALE SEAGRASS DISTURBANCE USING BI-TEMPORAL UAV-ACQUIRED IMAGES AND MULTIVARIATE ALTERATION DETECTION

Mapping fine-scale seagrass disturbance using bi-temporal UAV-acquired images and multivariate alteration detection

Abstract Seagrasses provide critical ecosystem services but cumulative human pressure on coastal environments has seen a global decline in their health and extent.Key processes of anthropogenic disturbance can operate at local spatio-temporal scales that are not captured by conventional satellite imaging.Seagrass management strategies to prevent lo

Small molecule drug discovery targeting the JAK-STAT pathway

The Janus kinase-signal transducer and activator of transcription (JAK-STAT) pathway functions as a central hub for transmitting signals from more than 50 cytokines, playing a pivotal role in maintaining hematopoiesis, immune balance, and tissue homeostasis.Dysregulation of this pathway has been implicated in various diseases, including immunodefic

Trade-Off between Land Use Pattern and Technical Efficiency Performance: Evidence from Arable Crop Farming in Tunisia

Cereal, oilseed, and protein (COP) production is an important sector contributing to Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) in Tunisia.COP farms often diversify their production patterns Shorts to stabilize their income sources and spread production risk across crops.However, crop diversity may entail an inefficient use and management of resources to
