EFFICACY AND COST OF ACOUSTIC-INFORMED AND WIND SPEED-ONLY TURBINE CURTAILMENT TO REDUCE BAT FATALITIES AT A WIND ENERGY FACILITY IN WISCONSIN.

Efficacy and cost of acoustic-informed and wind speed-only turbine curtailment to reduce bat fatalities at a wind energy facility in Wisconsin.

Current research estimates hundreds of thousands of turbine-related bat fatalities in North America annually.In an effort to reduce impacts of wind energy production on bat populations, many facilities implement operational curtailment strategies that limit turbine blade rotation during conditions when nighttime wind speeds are low.Incorporating re

Reversely immortalized mouse salivary gland cells presented a promising metabolic and fibrotic response upon BMP9/Gdf2 stimulation

Abstract The submandibular gland (SMG) and the sublingual gland (SLG) are two of the three major salivary glands in mammals.In mice, they are adjacent to each other and open into the oral cavity, producing saliva to lubricate the mouth and aid in diegojavierfares.com food digestion.Though salivary gland dysfunction accompanied with fibrosis and met

Early diagnosis of Cladosporium fulvum in greenhouse tomato plants based on visible/near-infrared (VIS/NIR) and near-infrared (NIR) data fusion

Abstract Plant diseases can inflict varying degrees of damage on agricultural production.Therefore, identifying a rapid, non-destructive early diagnostic method is crucial for safeguarding plants.Cladosporium fulvum (C.fulvum) is one of the major diseases in tomato growth.This work presents a method of data fusion using two hyperspectral imaging sy
