This paper proposes a new spectral unmixing strategy based on the normal compositional model that exploits the spatial correlations between the image pixels. The pure materials (referred to as endmembers) contained in the image are assumed to be available (they can be obtained by using an appropriate endmember extraction algorithm), while the corresponding fractions (referred ...

More than 300 pairs of fine and coarse mesh plankton net samples were collected in the northern basin of Lake Chad during an 18-month period, June 1967 to November 1968. The seasonal distribution and abundance of the dominant species of Rotifera and Crustacea are given in addition to a general description of the hydrology and circulation of the northern ...

A fine analysis of nine southern supergiants of spectral types F through K, including the bright Cepheid variable l Car, is presented. The average metal-to-hydrogen ratio is found to be twice the solar value. No essential differences are found between the nonvariable stars and the Cepheid variable.In an initial attempt to determine the spatial distribution of ...
