Sectoral Analysis of Landscape Interiors (SALI) as One of the Tools for Monitoring Changes in Green Infrastructure Systems

The aim of this article was to present Sectoral Analysis of Landscape Interiors (SALI). This method uses the idea of a landscape interior understood as a fragment of a landscape perceived from the level of a person standing at a given point. The analyses were conducted in two stages: stage I—the quantitative stage, and stage II—the qualitative stage. The first part of the research was the analysis of the percentage share of particular elements of landscape interiors in the images perpetuated in photographs, taking into account their level of transparency. The second part was the assessment of their quality based on expert knowledge. The use of the SALI method in the context of the analysis of greenery changes over time was illustrated on the example of the landscape interior of the main street in the village of Psary in Poland. The research was carried out at a time interval of 10 years—for the years 2009 and 2019. The results of the study indicate very large changes and loss of greenery (especially trees) and the associated deterioration of the landscape. The findings confirm the suitability of the method in landscape research at a human scale.

This paper examines the relationship of behavior trading investor using data detailed transaction history-corporate edition demand and order history in Indonesia Stock Exchange during period of March, April and May 2005. Peculiarly, behavior placing of investor order at trading volume. The result of this paper indicates that trading volume order pattern to have pattern U shape. The pattern happened that investors have strong desires to places order at the opening and close of compared to in trading periods. While the largest orders are of market at the opening indicates that investor is more conservatively when opening, where many orders when opening has not happened transaction to match. In placing order both of investor does similar strategy. By definition, informed investors’ orders more large than uninformed investors. If comparison of order examined hence both investors behavior relatively changes over time. But, statistically shows there is not ratio significant. This implies behavior trading of informed investors and uninformed investors stable relative over time. The result from regression analysis indicates that informed investors to correlate at trading volume in all time intervals, but not all uninformed investors correlates in every time interval. This imply investor order inform is more can explain trading volume pattern compared to uninformed investor order in Indonesia Stock Exchange. Finally, result of regression also finds that order status match has greater role determines trading volume pattern intraday especially informed buy match and informed sale match. While amend, open and withdraw unable to have role to determine intraday trading volume pattern.

With the help of German versions of the modified Utrecht-Groningen Identity Development Scales, we assessed interpersonal identity development of five different groups of siblings. Monozygotic, dizygotic same-sexed, and opposite-sexed twins, as well as same-sexed and opposite-sexed siblings (N = 214; average age 11.2, SD = 1.4) were interviewed three times (time interval: 1 year) in their home environments to examine commitment and exploration in the life domains siblings, best friends, and romantic relationships at each visit, as well as changes over time. Hierarchical analyses showed that, in general, the type of sibling dyad was not related to interpersonal identity development. Only monozygotic twins – being of the same genotype, same sex, and same age – derive more self-esteem from their sibling relationships. In general, a decrease in commitment toward the sibling and an increase of exploration in the life domains best friends and romantic relationships could be observed in all adolescents.

Records of 226 sets of triple theodolite balloon observations taken at Muroc, California, to heights of 38,000 feet have been analyzed to determined magnitudes of horizontal vector wind changes over time intervals from thirty minutes to five hours. The medians of magnitudes of velocity change vary from 2.0 mph over a time interval of 30 minutes to 6.4 mph over a time interval of five hours. The effect of altitude upon time variability of these winds has been studied. The height interval from the surface to 38,000 feet was separated into four altitude zones and it was found that wind variability is greater near the surface than in the zone above it. From the second zone upward, wind variability increased with height.

Over Time

The 2005 launch of a large-scale rubber plantation in Bachiang district, one of several in southern Laos, caused serious discontent among the local villagers whose traditional farming and foraging lands were seized and leased to a rubber company. This and other similar rubber developments based on land concessions in the south have drawn criticism from various quarters, including scholars and nongovernmental organisations. This study highlights how the locals’ views, livelihoods and lifestyles have been changing since the plantation was established, especially since rubber tapping began, and focuses on desires that may have directed their actions. Through an ethnographic approach tracing these changes over time, this study demonstrates that differentiation and diversification within the village have become increasingly apparent owing to both the recent shift to plantation work and other impacts and changes brought about by wider society.

In Modern society, most of car engines are multi cylinder four stroke engines, rotate speed is an important parameter of the engine, engine running status is a comprehensive expression of engine operation condition. It is also the result of the interaction by the gas torque, load torque and inertia moment. So the speed measurement is of great significance. Car engine speed measurement method has a lot of kinds, this article is based on the vibration method to measure, different methods used in vibration signal acquisition, analysis, processing and implementation. The vibration of the automobile engine output signals are continuous changes over time, we can say is a continuous signal. The vibration of the automobile engine output signals are continuous changes over time, we can say at this time is a continuous signal, when we use vibration sensor to gather the signals, a certain number of sampling points that are in different time, same time interval the vibration data resulting from the sampling theorem. At this time we deal with discrete time signals [1, 3]. Because of various vibration interference, The useful information we want to extract has been hidden in a lot of vibration under the disturbance signal, therefore, we carried out on the vibration signal analysis and processing, converting vibration wave in the frequency domain analysis, combining the new method of machinery vibration signal feature extraction, using short time Fourier transform, multiple correlation theory and Hilbert Huang transform combined with the application, making us in post-processing can extract the characteristic signal under the strong noise background [4]. The original signal frequency is obtained, based on related formulas to calculate car engine speed.

Abstract. Summary: Background: We aimed at estimating the agreement between the Medicap® (photo-optical) and Radiometer® (electro-chemical) sensors during exercise transcutaneous oxygen pressure (tcpO2) tests. Our hypothesis was that although absolute starting values (tcpO2rest: mean over 2 minutes) might be different, tcpO2-changes over time and the minimal value of the decrease from rest of oxygen pressure (DROPmin) results at exercise shall be concordant between the two systems. Patients and methods: Forty seven patients with arterial claudication (65 + / - 7 years) performed a treadmill test with 5 probes each of the electro-chemical and photo-optical devices simultaneously, one of each system on the chest, on each buttock and on each calf. Results: Seventeen Medicap® probes disconnected during the tests. tcpO2rest and DROPmin values were higher with Medicap® than with Radiometer®, by 13.7 + / - 17.1 mm Hg and 3.4 + / - 11.7 mm Hg, respectively. Despite the differences in absolute starting values, changes over time were similar between the two systems. The concordance between the two systems was approximately 70 % for classification of test results from DROPmin. Conclusions: Photo-optical sensors are promising alternatives to electro-chemical sensors for exercise oximetry, provided that miniaturisation and weight reduction of the new sensors are possible.
