The LATITUDE is the term that describes how far south or north from the equator the location is, while the LONGITUDE is used to describe how far east or west it is located from an imaginary line that connects the North and the South Poles. Latitudesare lines that are parallel to the equa...
Hersey has a climate similar to the rest of the Ynys Archipelago. It is particularly known for having fierce windstorms in the spring, and a 'Hersey Wind' is a term used by local sailors to describe a particularly violent gale. Natural Resources Hersey is a rich island, with plenty of ...
Transmission dynamics of mosquito-borne diseases (MBDs), like malaria, can be difficult to describe and predict due to multiple levels of complexity arising from interactions between vectors, pathogens, hosts, and the environment5,6. Transmission of MBDs is directly impacted by climate, particularly ...
The term ‘geographic information system’ (GIS) has become synonymous with a wide range of computer applications, technologies, and scientific methods related to the use of geospatial information. Although the origin of GIS can be traced back to early electronic mapping tools, such as the Canada...
Due to data limitations, the long-term change of urban air quality has not been deeply discussed in this study. Meanwhile, the complexity of urban air quality and its interaction mechanism with influencing factors still remain to be studied in the future. We need to accumulate more data and ...
"LPA" is used herein to denote geodetic coordinates. The letters stand for "Longitude", "Parallel" (of latitude), and (ellipsoidal) "Altitude". The use of the "P" (instead of a second 'L') provides an easy way to distinguish the two geodetic location angles in single-letter notation....
The aim of this study was to describe the natural range of this juniper by determining the current locations of its populations and to predict a theoretical range for the species based on current, past, and future climatic conditions. We used data from the literature, herbarium materials, and ...
and long-term strategies guided by citywide, regional and national visions (e.g. “imagine the benefits of making the city free from private cars by 2030”). The rewards can be great: transport planners who have designed — and helped to implement — plans appropriate to the needs of an ...
As used herein, the term "service provider" is intended to include goods providers, information providers, and/or service providers. A mobile user (MU) may use a portable computing device (PCD) to connect to the network and access information or services from the network. The PCD of the ...
