MULTI-SENSOR RETRIEVAL OF AEROSOL OPTICAL PROPERTIES FOR NEAR-REAL-TIME APPLICATIONS USING THE METOP SERIES OF SATELLITES: CONCEPT, DETAILED DESCRIPTION, AND FIRST VALIDATION

Multi-Sensor Retrieval of Aerosol Optical Properties for Near-Real-Time Applications Using the Metop Series of Satellites: Concept, Detailed Description, and First Validation

The Polar Multi-Sensor Aerosol product (PMAp) is based on the synergistic use of three instruments from the Metop platform, GOME-2, AVHRR, and IASI.The retrieval algorithm includes three major steps: a pre-identification of the aerosol class, a selection of the aerosol model, and a calculation of the Aerosol Optical Depth (AOD).This paper provides

Cloning and Functional Analysis of Histones H3 and H4 in Nuclear Shaping during Spermatogenesis of the Chinese Mitten Crab, Eriocheir sinensis.

During spermatogenesis in most animals, the basic proteins associated with DNA are continuously changing and somatic-typed histones are partly replaced by sperm-specific histones, which are then successively replaced by transition proteins and protamines.With the replacement of sperm nuclear basic proteins, nuclei progressively undergo chromatin co
