1. Geostatistics or machine learning for mapping soil attributes and agricultural practices
ABSTRACT Applying the upcoming technologies in agriculture has been a major economic, environmental and social challenge for scientists and farmers. In order to overcome such challenge, this study evaluated the advantages and limitations of using geostatistics and machine learning for soil mapping in agricultural practices and soil surveys. The study occurre

2. Spatial and Temporal Potential Groundwater Recharge: the Case of the Doce River Basin, Brazil
ABSTRACT: Little is known about the groundwater recharge potential of weathered tropical catchments, where increasing water uptake is widespread to meet various water demands. This study aimed to estimate the volume of groundwater recharge of the Doce River Basin, Minas Gerais, Brazil. The BALSEQ model was applied to calculate the water balance over a period

3. Multinomial Logistic Regression and Random Forest Classifiers in Digital Mapping of Soil Classes in Western Haiti
ABSTRACT Digital soil mapping (DSM) has been increasingly used to provide quick and accurate spatial information to support decision-makers in agricultural and environmental planning programs. In this study, we used a DSM approach to map soils in western Haiti and compare the performance of the Multinomial Logistic Regression (MLR) with Random Forest (RF) to

4. RELATIONSHIP BETWEEN SAMPLE DESIGN AND GEOMETRIC ANISOTROPY IN THE PREPARATION OF THEMATIC MAPS OF CHEMICAL SOIL ATTRIBUTES
ABSTRACT Spatial variability depends on the sampling configuration and characteristics associated with the georeferenced phenomenon, such as geometric anisotropy. This study aimed to determine the influence of the sampling design on parameter estimation in an anisotropic geostatistical model and the spatial estimation of a georeferenced variable at unsampled

5. Pedotransfer functions to estimate bulk density from soil properties and environmental covariates: Rio Doce basin
ABSTRACT Soil bulk density (ρb) data are needed for a wide range of environmental studies. However, ρb is rarely reported in soil surveys. An alternative to obtain ρb for data-scarce regions, such as the Rio Doce basin in southeastern Brazil, is indirect estimation from less costly covariates using pedotransfer functions (PTF). This study primarily aims t

6. Soil penetration resistance analysis by multivariate and geostatistical methods
The penetration resistance (PR) is a soil attribute that allows identifies areas with restrictions due to compaction, which results in mechanical impedance for root growth and reduced crop yield. The aim of this study was to characterize the PR of an agricultural soil by geostatistical and multivariate analysis. Sampling was done randomly in 90 points up to

7. Nonparametric intensity bounds for the detection and delineation of spatial clusters
There is considerable uncertainty in the disease rate estimation for aggregated area maps, especially for small population areas. As a consequence the delineation of local clustering is subject to substantial variation. Consider the most likely disease cluster produced by any given method, like SaTScan Kulldorff [2006], for the detection and inference of spa

8. Protein structure comparison via contact map alignment / Protein structure comparison via contact map alignment
Proteins are primary components in almost all biological processes in living organisms. It is known that the variety of protein functions is a result of the differences in protein structures. Therefore, understanding and comparing the structure of proteins is a major challenge in modern molecular biology. The structural alignment and comparison of proteins b

9. Conhecimento Ecológico Local, Técnicas de Pesca e Uso dos Recursos Pesqueiros em Comunidades da Área de Proteção Ambiental Barra do Rio Mamanguape, Paraíba, Brasil.
This study was conducted among three coastal communities: Aritingui, Taberaba and Tavares, located on the right of the estuary of Mamanguape River (EMR) in Paraíba, and incorporated in the Environmental Protection Area of the namesake river. Its main objective is to study the local ecological knowledge and use of wildlife resources by fishermen and collecto

10. Consequências climáticas da desertificação parcial do semi-árido do nordeste brasileiro / Climatic consequences of gradual desertification of the semi-arid region of northeast Brazil
The climatic impacts of partial desertification in the Semi-arid region of Northeast Brazil (SANEB) are evaluated by regional model (MM5) simulations. Maps of natural vegetation (without human influence; SANEB covered predominantly by dry shrubland known as caatinga), total desertification (replacement of the natural vegetation by desert in SANEB), partial d

11. AcurÃcia e precisÃo do mapeamento da flora nativa e dos reflorestamento em Minas Gerais / Accuracy and precision of the thematic mapping of native flora and reforestation of Minas Gerais
This study aimed to evaluate the overall accuracy and precision of thematic maps. Specifically aimed to evaluate the accuracy and precision of the classification of Thematic Mapping of Native Flora and Forestry of Minas Gerais. Data were collected from the field around the reference state, using simple random sampling procedure in proportion with the support

12. Development of epitope specific recombinant peptides of the Rhipicephalus (Boophilus) microplus selected by Phage Display libraries / Desenvolvimento de peptídeos recombinantes epítopos específicos do Rhipicephalus (Boophilus) microplus selecionados por bibliotecas de Phage Display
Ticks are implicated in serious economic losses to animal production worldwide in the order of billions of dollars. Although many antigens have been in vaccine tests, none has been effective in the control of ticks, which justifies the development of new antigens as well as new vaccine strategies. Phage Display techniques have been widely employed to map epi
