Urban forests are becoming increasingly important for human well-being as they provide ecosystem services that contribute to improving of city dwellers and addressing climate change. However, despite their importance, there is an information gap in most the world's urban due high cost complexity conducting standard forest inventories environments. New technologies based on artificial intelligence can represent a smart efficient alternative costly traditional inventories. In this paper, we...
The positive impact of urban forests and trees on the well-being residents worldwide is well known. Resistance to pests, diseases, extreme weather events are among most critical characteristics resilient cities, closely related species richness and, consequently, diversity street trees. However, forest inventories currently scarce worldwide. For this reason, trees' biodiversity capacity provide these ecosystem services not developed enough. Three state-of-the-art identification applications...
Abstract High‐speed neutron tomographies (1‐min acquisition) have been acquired during water invasion into air‐filled samples of both intact and deformed (ex situ) Vosges sandstone. Three‐dimensional volume images processed to detect track the evolution waterfront calculate full‐field measurement its speed advance. The flow process correlates well with known rock properties is especially sensitive distribution altered associated observed localized deformation, which independently...
European Spallation Source instruments like the macromolecular diffractometer (NMX) require an excellent neutron detection efficiency, high-rate capabilities, time resolution, and unprecedented spatial resolution in order of a few hundred micrometers over wide angular range incoming neutrons. For these solid converters combination with Micro Pattern Gaseous Detectors (MPGDs) are promising option. A GEM detector gadolinium converter was tested on cold beam at IFE research reactor Norway. The...
Abstract Neutron imaging is used for direct observation of evolving water–air and deuterated water–normal water exchanges in flow experiments performed on a laboratory-deformed, microporous laminated limestone, an extremely fine-textured rock altered by arrays superposed fractures generated mechanics apparatus. The neutron images document significant, evolving, speed direction variability at the deci-micron scale spatially complex patterns both increasing decreasing saturation. We infer that...
The behaviour of subsurface-reservoir porous rocks is a central topic in the resource engineering industry and has relevant applications hydrocarbon, water production, CO2 sequestration. One key open issues effect deformation on hydraulic properties host rock and, specifically, saturated environments. This paper presents novel full-field data set describing hydro-mechanical geomaterials through situ neutron X-ray tomography. use high-performance imaging facilities such as CONRAD-2...
The Multi-Grid (MG) detector has been introduced at ILL and developed by a collaboration between ILL, ESS Linkoping University. This design addresses the severely decreased availability of He3, in particular for neutron scattering instruments with large-area detectors, such as time-of-flight spectrometers other facilities. MG is based on thin converter films boron-10 carbide arranged layers orthogonal to incoming neutrons. provides position resolution, efficiency competitive He3 strong gamma...
The boron-10 based Multi-Grid detector is being developed as an alternative to helium-3 neutron detectors. At the European Spallation Source, will be used for time-of-flight spectroscopy at cold thermal energies. objective of this work investigate fine time- and energy-resolved effects detector, down a few $\mu$eV, while comparing it performance typical tube. Furthermore, characterize differences between technologies in terms internal scattering, well time reconstruction ~ $\mu$s short...
The European Spallation Source (ESS) in Lund, Sweden will become the world's leading neutron source for study of materials. instruments are being selected from conceptual proposals submitted by groups around Europe. These present numerous challenges detector technology absence availability Helium-3, which is default choice detectors built until today and due to extreme rates expected across ESS instrument suite. Additionally a new generation requires technologies fully exploit opportunities...
