Unlocking the Power of Single-Antenna-Single-Pass SAR Interferometry for High-Resolution Earth Science Radar Imaging
Safety & HazardsIntroduction Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR) has revolutionised remote sensing applications by providing high resolution images of the Earth’s surface in all weather conditions. SAR interferometry (InSAR) is a technique that uses two SAR images of the same area to measure surface deformation. However, traditional InSAR algorithms require two antennas or passes to obtain the necessary
Calculating Emission Factors for Spent Wash Briquettes: A Guide Based on Calorific Value
Climate & Climate ZonesIntroduction Spent wash briquette is a by-product of the sugar cane industry that has the potential to be used as a fuel. Its calorific value is an important factor in determining the amount of energy that can be derived from it. However, the use of spent wash briquette as a fuel can also result in
Exploring the Possibility of Gold Deposits in the Glacial Rivers of the Middle Himalayas
Climate & Climate ZonesIntroduction Gold has been a valuable and desirable metal for centuries. It has been used for jewellery, currency and even as a store of value. Throughout history, gold has been found in different parts of the world, but it is often associated with mountain ranges and river systems. In recent years, there has been growing
Exploring the Cryogenian Earth: How Biodiversity Changed During a Time of Global Cooling
Energy & ResourcesThe Cryogenian Earth: A Brief Overview The Cryogenian was a period of global cooling on Earth that occurred between 850 and 635 million years ago. During this time, the Earth experienced a series of extreme glaciations that altered the global climate and had a significant impact on biodiversity. This period is important for the study
Exploring Facies and Petrography: A Guide to Processes and Depositional Environments
Geology & LandformIntroduction Facies and petrography are two important concepts in earth science that are often studied together. Facies refers to the physical characteristics of a rock, such as its grain size, texture, color, and mineral composition. Petrography is the study of the composition and structure of rocks and can be used to interpret the depositional environment
Exploring the Difference in Mixing Ratios at LCL and Starting Conditions in Earth Science and Condensation
Energy & ResourcesOverview of Mixing Ratios in Earth Science and Condensation Mixing ratios are an important concept in Earth science and condensation. They refer to the ratio of two substances in a given environment, such as the ratio of water vapor to air in the atmosphere. Mixing ratios are used to calculate the amount of a particular
