In this study, the accuracy of the Advanced Land Observing Satellite World 3D Digital Surface Model version 2.1 (ALOS W3D30), the Shuttle Radar Topography Mission Digital Elevation Model version 3.0 (SRTM30) and the Advanced Space borne Thermal Emission and Reflection Radiometer Global DEM version 2.0 (ASTER GDEM2) was statistically assessed using high accuracy GPS survey data. Root-Mean-Square errors of ~5.40 m, ~7.47 m and ~20.03 m were obtained for ALOS W3D30, SRTM30 and ASTER GDEM2 respectively. In further analyses, we discovered that ALOS W3D30 and SRTM30 were much more accurate in regions where the height intervals were within 201 m - 400 m and >801 m. ALOS W3D30 proved to be the most accurate DEM that best represents the topography of the earth’s surface and could be used for some earth and environmental applications in Nigeria. We recommend that this study should serve as a guide in the use of any of these DEMs for earth and environmental applications in Nigeria.展开更多

To investigate the spatiotemporal evolution characteristics of land subsidence in the eastern plain of Beijing following the SNWDP, this study employs Ascending (ASC) and Descending (DES) InSAR data combined with a Strain Model (SM) to obtain a Three-Dimensional (3-D) deformation field from 2016 to 2018. Through analysis of the 3-D deformation characteristics and spatiotemporal evolution of land subsidence in this region from 2016 to 2018, the results reveal a shift in the distribution of subsiding areas after the South-to-North Water Diversion, with a marked decrease in subsidence rates in certain areas. The maximum subsidence rate in the Beijing area has decreased to 110 mm/yr, accompanied by horizontal deformation at a rate of 12 mm/yr. Additionally, by examining the spatial relationship between major active faults and subsidence deformation in this region, the study further elucidates the influence of fault activity on the spatial distribution of subsidence deformation.展开更多

The structural identity of the synthesized compounds was established according to their spectroscopic analysis, such as FT-IR, NMR and mass spectroscopy. These new compounds were tested for their antiproliferative activities on seven representative human tumoral cell lines (Huh7 D12, Caco2, MDA-MB231, MDA-MB468, HCT116, PC3 and MCF7) and also on fibroblasts. Among them, only the compounds 6c showed micromolar cytotoxic activity on tumor cell lines (1.8 50 50 > 25 μM). Finally, in silico ADMET studies ware performed to investigate the possibility of using of the identified compound 6c as potential anti-tumor compound.展开更多

The assessments provide a comparison of the economical performance, energy efficiency and environmental impacts of the three alternatives. And the development potential of the three alternatives in China was examined. The results are very useful for the Chinese government to make decisions on the biomass ethanol energy policy, and some advises for the decision-making of Chinese government were given.展开更多
