Chapter Remote Sensing Studies of Urban Canopies: 3D Radiative Transfer Modeling
(2016)
Need for better understanding and more accurate estimation of radiative fluxes in urban environments, specifically urban surface albedo and exitance, motivates development of new remote sensing and three‐dimensional (3D) ...
Chapter Hyperglycemia-Induced Endothelial Dysfunction
(2018)
Glucose-induced endothelial dysfunction plays a fundamental role in the development of diabetic vascular complications and glycemic control (the foundation of diabetes care) provides limited protection against the ...
Chapter Selected endothelial responses after ionizing radiation exposure
(2018)
Along with the development of novel chemotherapeutic agents, radiation therapy has revolutionized the prognosis of patients with various cancers. However, with a longer life expectancy, radiation treatment-related comorbidity, ...
Chapter Determinants of Established Entrepreneurs’ Innovative Activity in Northern and Western Europe
(2018)
For established entrepreneurs from Western European economies (WEEs) and Northern European economies (NEEs), we estimated relationships between firms’ innovative activity and their owner-managers’ educational level, the ...
Chapter Irreversible electroporation in pancreatic cancer
(2018)
Pancreatic cancer is the deadliest of the gastrointestinal tract with 5-year survival rates of less than 5%. Given common asymptomatic early disease course, most patients (50%) present with an already metastatic disease, ...
Chapter A Scientometric Study on Graphene and Related Graphene- Based Materials in Medicine
(2018)
Here we carried out a scientometric analysis of scientific literature published referred to the use of graphene and graphene-based materials. We found that in the last 15 years, more than 1200 issues have been produced, ...
Chapter Qualitative and Quantitative Assessment of Fatty Acids of Hazelnut by GC-TOF/MS
(2018)
On the basis of gas chromatography coupled with time-of-flight mass spectrometry, we assessed the constituents and relative quantities of fatty acids extracted by supercritical carbon dioxide in seeds of hazelnut. Hazelnut ...
