Synthetic Aperture Radar Doppler Tomography Reveals Details Of Undiscovered High-Resolution Internal Structure Of The Great Pyramid Of Giza

A problem with synthetic aperture radar (SAR) is that, due to the poor penetrating action of electro- magnetic waves inside solid bodies, the capability to observe inside distributed targets is precluded. Under these conditions, imaging action is provided only on the surface of distributed targets. The present work describes an imaging method based on the analysis of micro-movements on the Khnum- Khufu Pyramid, which are usually generated by background seismic waves.

Valor Nutricio y Contenido de Saponinas en Germinados de Huauzontle

Sprouts are a low-cost fresh vegetable that can be grown indoors in any season and can contribute many nutrients to the diet. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effect of sprouting on nutrimental composition and total saponin content of huauzontle (Chenopodium nuttalliae Saff.), zucchini (Cucurbita pepo L.), canola (Brassica napus L.) and amaranth (Amaranthus leucocarpus S. Watson syn. hypochondriacus L.) sprouts. A proximal analysis and quantification of saponins were performed in seeds and sprouts from the four species.

Study of Edible Plants: Effects of Boiling on Nutritional, Antioxidant, and Physicochemical Properties

The consumption of vegetables in Mexico includes a wide variety of plants that grow naturally as weeds in the fields. The intake of these vegetables is very important in the Mexican diet because these plants supply an important input of nutrients and compounds such as fiber, vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants. Thus, the plants may be universally promoted as healthy. However, there is little information about these vegetables of popular consumption, especially in terms of the nutritional changes caused by boiling.

Remedial Prospective of Hippophae rhamnoides Linn. (Sea Buckthorn)

Sea buckthorn (Hippophae rhamnoides L.) constitutes thorny nitrogen fixing deciduous shrub. Sea buckthorn(SBT) is primarily valued for its very rich vitamins A, B1 , B 12 , C, E, K, and P; flavonoids, lycopene, carotenoids, and phytosterols. and therapeutically important since it is rich with potent antioxidants. Scientifically evaluated pharmacological actions of SBT are like inflammation inhibited by reduced permeability, loss of follicular aggregation of lymphocytes from the inflamed synovium and suppress lymphocyte proliferation.

Greening of the Earth and its drivers

Global environmental change is rapidly altering the dynamics of terrestrial vegetation with consequences for the functioning of the Earth system and provision of ecosystem services 1,2 . Yet how global vegetation is responding to the changing environment is not well established. Here we use 3 long-term satellite leaf area index (LAI) records and 10 global ecosystem models to investigate four key drivers of LAI trends during 1982-2009.
