Fifty shades of African lightness: a bio-psychosocial review of the global phenomenon of skin lightening practices

Skin-lightening is an aesthetic practice of global concern.By adopting a biopsycho-social approach, we consider the interplay between the biological, psychological and social factors that underpin the circulation and consumption of skin lighteners in South Africa.This paper reflects on biological aspects of skin lightening, interpersonal relationsh

POLARIMETRIC REMOTE SENSING OF ATMOSPHERIC PARTICULATE POLLUTANTS

Atmospheric particulate pollutants not only reduce atmospheric visibility, change the energy balance of the troposphere, but also affect human and vegetation health.For monitoring the Bar Stool particulate pollutants, we establish and develop a series of inversion algorithms based on polarimetric remote sensing technology which has unique advantage

Automatic methods of hoof-on and -off detection in horses using wearable inertial sensors during walk and trot on asphalt, sand and grass.

Detection of hoof-on and -off events are essential to gait classification in horses.Wearable sensors have been endorsed as a convenient alternative to the traditional force plate-based method.The aim of this study was to propose and validate inertial L-Proline sensor-based methods of gait event detection, reviewing different sensor locations and th
