To assess spatial, seasonal, and source variability in stable isotopic composition of human
drinking waters throughout the entire USA, we have constructed a database of δ18O and …

Stable isotope techniques have become a critical tool for tracking mine water and identifying
its contamination. In order to explore in depth the research hotspots and trends in stable …

Imperceptibility and robustness are two complementary but fundamental requirements of
any watermarking algorithm. Low strength watermarking yields high imperceptibility but …

In recent decades, power consumption has become an essential factor in attracting the
attention of integrated circuit (IC) designers. Multiple-valued logic (MVL) and approximate …

The water present within trees when sugars and cellulose are formed is the source of
hydrogen and oxygen atoms that are incorporated into tree-ring cellulose (see Chaps. 10 …

Delineating spatial patterns of precipitation isotopes (“isoscapes”) is becoming increasingly
important to understand the processes governing the modern water isotope cycle and their …

The key processes responsible for the rise in groundwater salinization in the Mio–Pliocene
aquifer system of Sousse (Tunisia, eastern coastline) were identified through a …

Current research on digital watermarking for the copyright protection of digital multimedia
data has led to fairly advanced techniques with fruitful results. However, there remains a lack …

To enable a wider use of dissolved noble gas concentrations and isotope ratios in
groundwater studies, we have developed an efficient and portable sampling device using a …

This paper presents a digital watermarking scheme based on a new application of DWT and
SVD for color artworks protection. This scheme uses the major features of the two …
