The notochord is a major regulator of embryonic patterning in vertebrates and abnormal notochordal development is associated with a variety of birth defects in man.Proper knowledge of the development of the human notochord, therefore, is important to understand the pathogenesis of these birth defects.Textbook descriptions vary significantly and see
The application of a joint method of recording seismic and infrasound signals generated during ice calving from the terminal part of the outlet glaciers to identify the process of iceberg formation is considered.For many years, the Kola Branch of the Geophysical Service of the Russian Academy of Sciences has been developing technology for remote mo
Image matching is one of the most important tasks in Unmanned Arial Vehicles (UAV) photogrammetry applications.The number and distribution of extracted keypoints play an essential role in the reliability and accuracy of image matching and orientation results.Conventional detectors generally produce too many redundant keypoints.In this paper, we stu
