An empirical InSAR-optical fusion approach to mapping vegetation canopy height

Exploiting synergies afforded by a host of recently available national-scale data sets derived from interferometric synthetic aperture radar (InSAR) and passive optical remote sensing, this paper describes the development of a novel empirical approach for the provision of regional- to continental-scale estimates of vegetation canopy height. Supported by data from the 2000 Shuttle Radar Topography Mission (SRTM), the National Elevation Dataset (NED), the LANDFIRE project, and the National Land Cover Database (NLCD) 2001, this paper describes a data fusion and modeling strategy for developing the first-ever high-resolution map of canopy height for the conterminous U.S. The approach was tested as part of a prototype study spanning some 62,000 km² in central Utah (NLCD mapping zone 16). A mapping strategy based on object-oriented image analysis and tree-based regression techniques is employed. Empirical model development is driven by a database of height metrics obtained from an extensive field plot network administered by the USDA Forest Service-Forest Inventory and Analysis (FIA) program. Based on data from 508 FIA field plots, an average absolute height error of 2.1 m (r = 0.88) was achieved for the prototype mapping zone.     

Characteristics of Schottky Barrier Junction Based on Hexagonal Microtube ZnO

Hexagonal microtube ZnO was firstly grown on single crystal p-Si (111) substrates by hydrothermal method, and fabricated Ag/n-ZnO and Au/n-ZnO Schottky junction. Schottky effective barrier heights were calculated by I-V measurement. It is confirmed that the presence of a large amount of surface states related possibly to lattice imperfections existed near the surface leads to the pinning of the surface Fermi level at 0.35 eV below the conduction-band edge. Then the fabricated Schottky barrier junctions are evaluated for their use as UV photodetectors.

Feedrate optimization and tool profile modification for the high-efficiency ball-end milling process

Trend in die/mold machining is to produce highly quailed surface using the high-speed hard machining with the ball-end cutter. The ball-end milling is, however, less efficiency than the flat end milling. It is important to optimize the feedrate that gives the maximum material removal rate constrained by an allowable surface roughness. The state-of-art of the CBN ball-end cutter technology allows increasing the tooth feed for high-speed and high-efficiency machining. However, because the spherical shape of the cutter can result in the scallop-liked cusps on the machined surface, the surface roughness consideration makes a feedrate limitation to the CBN cutter. In this paper, the optimization of the feedrate by considering the generated-scallop effect of the ball-end cutter has been studied. It was found that the tooth feed must be kept within one third of the path pick in order to keep the feed-interval scallop height not over the path-interval scallop height. Therefore, the potential capability of the CBN cutter for the larger tooth feed (i.e. high efficient) machining can not be fully exploited. It was found a notch-cut on the center of the ball-end cutter reduced the feed-interval cusp height, thus allowing an increased feedrate of more than 50% compared with the standard ball-end cutter. If the parameters of the notch-cut profile can be optimized, it is believed that the feedrate can be further increased.
