Past Simple
This document provides information about forming and using the past simple tense in English. It discusses two types of verbs - regular and irregular. For regular verbs, the simple past is formed by adding "-ed" to the base verb. Irregular verbs have unique past forms that must be memorized. The document provides examples of forming affirmative, negative, and interrogative sentences in the past simple tense. It also lists five common uses of the past simple tense, such as describing completed past actions and past habits.
The past continuous tense
The document provides information about and examples of using the past continuous tense in English. It discusses how the past continuous tense expresses an action that was happening at a particular moment in the past and often sets the background for a story. It provides examples of using the past continuous tense to describe parallel or interrupting actions. It also lists verbs that are rarely used in the continuous form, such as abstract verbs and possession verbs. The document concludes with exercises asking the reader to write sentences in the past continuous tense based on prompts.

Reported speech statements
This document discusses how to report what someone said in indirect speech by making some grammatical changes compared to direct speech. Tenses typically change by one back (e.g. present to past), pronouns may change, and expressions of time and place are adjusted if reported in a different context. Common reporting verbs like said, told, and asked are explained along with alternatives to avoid repetition.
Indirect questions
This document discusses direct and indirect questions. Direct questions are normal questions asked to people you know well, while indirect questions are more formal and polite for situations where you don't know the person as well, such as professionally. Indirect questions use phrases like "Could you tell me" or "Do you know" and change the structure and verbs used compared to direct questions, such as using "moved" instead of "move" and placing forms of "be" and "have" after the subject. The document provides examples of direct questions and their indirect equivalents to illustrate these rules.

Markus Grönholm: Terahertz Imaging @ TEDx AaltoUniversityOnTracks
Terahertz radiation lies between microwaves and infrared on the electromagnetic spectrum. It has properties that make it useful for imaging, as it can penetrate materials like plastic, wood, clothes, and cardboard, while providing higher resolution than microwaves. However, there is currently a "technological terahertz gap" with no cheap and easy sources or detectors available. Terahertz imaging shows promise for applications in security, military, medicine, industry, and astronomy by allowing the detection of non-metallic objects and providing safe, non-ionizing radiation for security screening. There are two main approaches: active systems that illuminate the target, and passive systems that detect the target's natural thermal emissions from a distance without privacy
THz wave air photonics: Generation and detection of THz radiation by air
1. THz radiation is generated through four-wave mixing in laser-induced air plasma using ω0 and 2ω0 beams.
2. THz waves are detected using THz-REEF, where THz pulses modulate fluorescence emission from the plasma.
3. Standoff THz generation and detection over 17 meters has been demonstrated using THz air photonics, leveraging low atmospheric absorption of visible light.
Terahertz generation and detection using aperture antenna
Terahertz radiation consists of electromagnetic waves between 40GHz and 4THz. It can be generated using photoconductive or non-linear optical techniques. Photoconductive generation works by using high energy photons to create charge carriers in a semiconductor antenna, which are accelerated by a bias electric field to emit terahertz radiation. Key components are a photoconductive antenna, ultrashort laser pulse source, and bias voltage source. Detection works similarly but measures the induced current from an incoming terahertz pulse. Important factors for efficient generation and detection include short carrier trapping/recombination times and high carrier mobility and density.
Tera ray
This document discusses terahertz communication devices. It begins with an introduction to terahertz radiation and its spectrum. Then it provides a brief history of terahertz technology development. It describes some key properties of terahertz waves, such as their ability to penetrate certain materials. Examples of potential terahertz communication devices and applications are mentioned, such as high-speed wireless communication. Finally, it lists some references for further information.
Terahertz_Applications
Terahertz time domain spectroscopy is a technique that uses short pulses of terahertz radiation to investigate materials. It can provide information about molecular vibrations and rotations through terahertz absorption spectroscopy. Key points:
- Terahertz radiation has energies between infrared and microwave frequencies, making it suitable for probing inter- and intra-molecular vibrations and rotations.
- Terahertz pulses are generated using ultrafast lasers and nonlinear crystals or photoconductive antennas, and detected using electro-optic sampling.
- Terahertz spectroscopy can identify functional groups in molecules and investigate properties of gases, liquids, crystals, and biologically relevant samples like sugars. It has applications in chemical identification and security imaging
Far infrared (terahertz) technology
This document discusses terahertz (THz) technology and optical detection of THz radiation using nonlinear parametric upconversion. It describes using a bulk gallium arsenide (GaAs) crystal to mix a 1550 nm optical pump with a 700 GHz THz beam from a backward wave oscillator, generating an optical idler signal at 1555.6 nm. Experimental results showed a THz-to-optical photon conversion efficiency of 0.001%. Improving efficiency requires phase matching, which can be achieved using quasi-phase matching by bonding GaAs crystals with alternating orientations.
Terahertz_An introduction

This document discusses how to report what someone else said in indirect or reported speech. It provides rules for changing pronouns, verb tenses, time and place expressions when reporting statements, questions, requests and commands that were originally direct speech. For statements, reporting verbs like said, told, explained are used followed by a that-clause. For questions, the verb ask is used along with whether or if for yes/no questions and the same wh- word for wh- questions. Requests and commands are reported using verbs like tell, ask or order followed by an object and infinitive.
Reported speech carmen
There are two main ways to report what someone says: direct speech and indirect or reported speech. Reported speech involves changing direct quotes into an indirect version by removing quotation marks, changing verb tenses and pronouns, and modifying words like adverbs of time and place. The document provides examples of how direct quotes are changed when converting to reported speech, including changes to verb tenses, pronouns, questions, statements and other grammatical aspects.

The document discusses reported (indirect) speech and the changes that are made when reporting what someone said. It provides examples of direct quotes and how they are changed in reported speech by altering verb tenses, pronouns, time/place expressions, and question/command structures. The key changes that occur in reported speech include changing present tenses to past tenses, changing pronouns, and adjusting time/place adverbials. Various reporting verbs are also discussed that can be used to introduce reported statements, questions, suggestions, promises and threats.
Reportedspeech 1
Reported speech is used to report what someone said in the past. When using reported speech, verb tenses change and pronouns may change depending on who is speaking. Time and place expressions also change to reflect when the original statement was made rather than when it is being reported. Reporting verbs like "said" introduce the reported part of the statement.
Reported speech statements questions and commands
- Reported speech is used to report what someone else has said without using their exact words. It involves changing verb tenses, time/place expressions, and pronouns.
- Verb tenses in reported speech are shifted back one tense compared to the original direct speech. For example, "I am playing tennis" becomes "She said that she was playing tennis."
- Time, place and pronoun changes are also required. "Now" becomes "then", "here" becomes "there", and pronouns like "I" change to refer to the original speaker.
- Reporting verbs like "say", "tell", "ask" are used to introduce the reported clause, which can
Reported Speech
The document discusses the differences between direct and reported speech. When reporting what someone said, you retell it in your own words rather than verbatim. This involves changing verb tenses and pronouns to reflect when the statement was made rather than when it is being reported. Common changes include changing the present tense to past tense, changing pronouns like "I" and "you" to "she" and "her", and adjusting time and place adverbials. Reporting questions and commands also involves changing them to indirect statements and clauses.

Reported speech
This document explains how to change direct speech into reported speech by modifying verb tenses and other elements like pronouns, adverbs of time and place. When reporting speech, the tense of the verb in the reported clause is usually changed to be one tense back compared to the tense of the reporting verb. Pronouns, adverbs of time and place, and other elements are also typically changed to be consistent with the fact that a past reporting verb is being used to report past speech or a situation.

LAND USE LAND COVER AND NDVI OF MIRZAPUR DISTRICT, UP
This Dissertation explores the particular circumstances of Mirzapur, a region located in the
core of India. Mirzapur, with its varied terrains and abundant biodiversity, offers an optimal
environment for investigating the changes in vegetation cover dynamics. Our study utilizes
advanced technologies such as GIS (Geographic Information Systems) and Remote sensing to
analyze the transformations that have taken place over the course of a decade.
The complex relationship between human activities and the environment has been the focus
of extensive research and worry. As the global community grapples with swift urbanization,
population expansion, and economic progress, the effects on natural ecosystems are becoming
more evident. A crucial element of this impact is the alteration of vegetation cover, which plays a
significant role in maintaining the ecological equilibrium of our planet.Land serves as the foundation for all human activities and provides the necessary materials for
these activities. As the most crucial natural resource, its utilization by humans results in different
'Land uses,' which are determined by both human activities and the physical characteristics of the
land.
The utilization of land is impacted by human needs and environmental factors. In countries
like India, rapid population growth and the emphasis on extensive resource exploitation can lead
to significant land degradation, adversely affecting the region's land cover.
Therefore, human intervention has significantly influenced land use patterns over many
centuries, evolving its structure over time and space. In the present era, these changes have
accelerated due to factors such as agriculture and urbanization. Information regarding land use and
cover is essential for various planning and management tasks related to the Earth's surface,
providing crucial environmental data for scientific, resource management, policy purposes, and
diverse human activities.
Accurate understanding of land use and cover is imperative for the development planning
of any area. Consequently, a wide range of professionals, including earth system scientists, land
and water managers, and urban planners, are interested in obtaining data on land use and cover
changes, conversion trends, and other related patterns. The spatial dimensions of land use and
cover support policymakers and scientists in making well-informed decisions, as alterations in
these patterns indicate shifts in economic and social conditions. Monitoring such changes with the
help of Advanced technologies like Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems is
crucial for coordinated efforts across different administrative levels. Advanced technologies like
Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems

Changes in vegetation cover refer to variations in the distribution, composition, and overall
structure of plant communities across different temporal and spatial scales. These changes can
occur natural.
