Representing twentieth century space-time climate variability, part 1: development of a 1961-90 mean monthly terrestrial climatology
- Journal of Climate
, 1999
"... The construction of a 0.58 lat 3 0.58 long surface climatology of global land areas, excluding Antarctica, is described. The climatology represents the period 1961–90 and comprises a suite of nine variables: precipitation, wet-day frequency, mean temperature, diurnal temperature range, vapor pressur ..."

pressure, sunshine, cloud cover, ground frost frequency, and wind speed. The climate surfaces have been constructed from a new dataset of station 1961–90 climatological normals, numbering between 19 800 (precipitation) and 3615 (wind speed). The station data were interpolated as a function of latitude
Status of land cover classification accuracy assessment
- REMOTE SENSING OF ENVIRONMENT
, 2002
"... The production of thematic maps, such as those depicting land cover, using an image classification is one of the most common applications of remote sensing. Considerable research has been directed at the various components of the mapping process, including the assessment of accuracy. This paper brie ..."

A Tight Analysis of the Greedy Algorithm for Set Cover
, 1995
"... We establish significantly improved bounds on the performance of the greedy algorithm for approximating set cover. In particular, we provide the first substantial improvement of the 20 year old classical harmonic upper bound, H(m), of Johnson, Lovasz, and Chv'atal, by showing that the performan ..."

Improving wireless sensor network lifetime through power aware organization
- ACM Wireless Networks
, 2005
"... Abstract. A critical aspect of applications with wireless sensor networks is network lifetime. Battery-powered sensors are usable as long as they can communicate captured data to a processing node. Sensing and communications consume energy, therefore judicious power management and scheduling can eff ..."

effectively extend operational time. To monitor a set of targets with known locations when ground access in the monitored area is prohibited, one solution is to deploy the sensors remotely, from an aircraft. The loss of precise sensor placement would then be compensated by a large sensor population density
