Forest Genomics and Biotechnology
This Research Topic addresses research in genomics and biotechnology to improve the growth and quality of forest trees for wood, pulp, biorefineries and carbon capture. Forests are the world’s greatest repository of terrestrial biomass and biodiversity. Forests serve critical ecological services, supporting the preservation of fauna and flora, and water resources. Planted forests also offer a renewable source of timber, for pulp and paper production, and the biorefinery. Despite their fundamental role for society, thousands of hectares of forests are lost annually due to deforestation, pests, pathogens and urban development. As a consequence, there is an increasing need to develop trees th...

Computer Vision
This modern treatment of computer vision focuses on learning and inference in probabilistic models as a unifying theme. It shows how to use training data to learn the relationships between the observed image data and the aspects of the world that we wish to estimate, such as the 3D structure or the object class, and how to exploit these relationships to make new inferences about the world from new image data. With minimal prerequisites, the book starts from the basics of probability and model fitting and works up to real examples that the reader can implement and modify to build useful vision systems. Primarily meant for advanced undergraduate and graduate students, the detailed methodologic...
The Design of a Canine Inhalation Exposure Apparatus Incorporating a Whole Body Plethysmograph
A whole body plethysmograph has been incorporated in an apparatus for exposing dogs individually to radioactive aerosols. This makes it possible to monitor the dog's respiratory pattern during the exposure without the use of any respiratory masks or valves. After three different transducer systems were evaluated for use with the plethysmograph, the flow rate transducer was chosen for several reasons including the fact that this system produces inspiratory and expiratory flow rate data as well as tidal volume and respiratory rate information. The aerosol is continuously produced and drawn past the dog's nose during the exposure period and provision has been made for quantification of the aerosol in terms of concentration and particle size distribution for each experiment. External contamination of the dog is minimal since only the nostril area is uncovered within the aerosol exposure chamber. Pertinent design and calibration features are discussed.
Disposal of Weapon Plutonium
This NATO Advanced Research Workshop on Disposal of Weapons Plutonium is a follow-up event to two preceding workshops, each dealing with a special subject within the overall disarmament issue: "Disposition of Weapon Plutonium", sponsored by the NATO Science Committee. The first workshop of this series was held at the Royal Institute of International Affairs in London on 24-25 January 1994, entitled "Managing the Plutonium Surplus, Applications, and Options". Its over all goal was to clarify the current situation with respect to pluto nium characteristics and availability, the technical options for use or disposal, and their main technical, environmental, and economic constraints. In the imme...
