Observation and assessment of model retrievals of surface exchange components over a row canopy using directional thermal data
(IEEE Journal of Selected Topics in Applied Earth Observations and Remote Sensing, 2023-07-21)Land surface temperature is an essential climate variable that can serve as a proxy for detecting water deficiencies in croplands and wooded areas. Its measurement can however be influenced by anisotropic ... -
Observation and Measurement of Ice Morphology in Foods: A Review
(Foods, 2023-10-31)Freezing is an effective technology with which to maintain food quality. However, the formation of ice crystals during this process can cause damage to the cellular structure, leading to food deterioration. ... -
Occurrence and antimicrobial resistance of zoonotic enteropathogens in gulls from southern Europe
(Science of the Total Environment, 2020-10-19)Campylobacter spp. and Salmonella spp. are the two most frequent zoonotic bacteria involved in human enteric infections in the European Union. Both enteropathogens have been isolated from a diversity ... -
Occurrence of cyclic imines in European commercial seafood and consumers risk assessment
(Environmental Research, 2017-12-01)Cyclic imines constitute a quite recently discovered group of marine biotoxins that act on neural receptors and that bioaccumulate in seafood. They are grouped together due to the imino group functioning ... -
