IONOSPHERIC COMPENSATION IN L-BAND INSAR TIME-SERIES: PERFORMANCE EVALUATION FOR SLOW DEFORMATION CONTEXTS IN EQUATORIAL REGIONS

Ionospheric compensation in L-band InSAR time-series: Performance evaluation for slow deformation contexts in equatorial regions

Multi-temporal Synthetic Aperture Radar Interferometry (MT-InSAR) is the only geodetic technique allowing to measure ground deformation down to mm/yr over continuous areas.Vegetation cover in equatorial regions favors the use of L-band SAR data to improve interferometric coherence.However, the electron content of ionosphere, affecting the propagati

Does vitamin D deficiency predict tumour malignancy in patients with bone tumours? Data from a multi-center cohort analysis

Vitamin D deficiency is a global health concern that is estimated to afflict over one billion people globally.The major role of vitamin D is that of a regulator of calcium and phosphate metabolism, thus, being essential for proper bone mineralisation.Concomitantly, vitamin D is known to exert numerous extra-skeletal actions.For example, it has beco
