With 2-D image features in range-Doppler spectrum, the trend of first-order sea echoes is extracted as indicative information by a multi-scale filter. Detection rules for both single and splitting first-order sea echoes are given based on the characteristic knowledge combining the indicative information with the global characteristics such as amplitude, symmetry, continuity, etc. Compared with the classical algorithms, the proposed method can detect and locate the first-order sea echo in the HF band more accurately especially in the environment with targets/clutters smearing. Experiments with real data verify the validity of the algorithm.展开更多

This condition provides a new approach to choose the penalty param- eters adaptively for a fixed point iteration algorithm. Meanwhile, the result is extended to matrix completion which is a new field on the heel of the compressed sensing.

In China, rapid economic growth and urbanization have led to increasing solid waste generation and greenhouse gas emissions from the waste sector. Based on the first-order decay (FOD) method recommended by the 2006 IPCC Guidelines, this paper systematically estimates China's carbon emissions from the waste sector and forecasts their peak. Results indicate that between 1981 and 2009, China's carbon emissions from the waste sector surged, possibly peaking by around 2024. In comparison with developed countries, there is a large potential to improve waste disposal in China. Industrial upgradation and waste disposal improvement will help reduce waste generation and carbon emissions from the waste sector.展开更多

These energies were obtained from <sup>152</sup>Eu, <sup>137</sup>Cs and <sup>60</sup>Co. The relations between the full energy peak efficiency and photopeak attenuation coefficients, were plotted vs. photon energy at different sources to detector distance, and it found that the full energy peak efficiency decreased by increasing the distance between the source and the detector.展开更多
