The results showed that such three leading indexes as SO2, PM10 and PM2.5 had strong correlation in Beijing, Tianjin and main cities of Hebei. Finally, some suggestions and preventive measures for the cooperative governance of air pollution in Beijing-Tianjin-Hebei Region were put forward, hoping this can help them.展开更多

Taking into account the temporal coherence between consecutive frames, the PCC (Pearson's Correlation Coefficient) was proposed and applied as: discarding criteria methodology, dynamic power management solution, environment observer method which selects automatically only the regions-of-interest; and taking place in the obstacle avoidance context, as a method for collision risk estimation for vehicles in dynamic and unknown environments. Even if the PCC is a great tool to help the autonomous or semi-autonomous navigation, distortions in the imaging system, pixel noise, slight variations in the object's position relative to the camera, and other factors produce a false PCC threshold. Whereas there are homogeneous regions in the image, in order to obtain a more realistic Pearson's correlation, we propose to use some prior known environment information.展开更多

The Physiology, geomorphology and hydrogeology of the area are first presented. Sixty-six Vertical Electrical Sounding (VES) data sets are used to determine the aquifer. Demographic studies are then carried out in 220 communities in order to determine the relationship between population size on one hand and a unit draw-down of wells due to groundwater abstraction on the other. The relationship between geological Formation, aquifer potentials and depth of boreholes are then calculated using Pearson’s correlation matrix. Results show that the mean population of persons appears to be higher in Bende-Ameki Formation (of Eocene-Oligocene age) and the late Tetiary-Early Quaternary Coastal Plain Sands, than in the Cretaceous shale Formation of Asata Nkporo. The mean population of persons sitting on these Formations is 31,200, 18,370 and 5400 respectively. Furthermore, it is observed that a population increase of about 50 persons in a community in Abia State is accompanied by a unit volume (1 m3) draw-down of wells due to groundwater abstraction. It is therefore concluded that population size is positively correlated with groundwater abstraction, aquifer potentials and geological Formation favouring aquifer in Abia State.展开更多
