"The final stage would be to use this new biologically grounded classification system to develop new diagnostic tools and suggest strategies for drug development and treatment.
The ground layer can be differentiated into the fibric (Oi), hemic (Oe), and/or sapric (Oa) horizons under the U.S. Soil Classification System.
The above classification would be equated to the conventional soil classification systems for standardization.
Study and correlation of major soil classification systems; assistance in the elaboration of new classification systems (World Reference base for soil classification, WRB).
Carolus Linnaeus had been criticised in the 18th century for grouping humans and apes together as primates in his ground breaking classification system.
The ground sample was sieved using a stack of sieves of 0.075, 0.425, 2.0 and 4.75 mm openings according to the American society for testing and materials (ASTM D 422) and soil textural classification system (Liu and Evett 2003).
Tests using thermal data for terrestrial "ground truth" cases show that our classification system is valid on Earth.
One reason is that virtually all of the previous reports used a vessel classification obtained by manual grading of colour images as ground truth (including only median or large vessels that can be recognized by colour images) and compared their (semi-) automatic classification system to this ground truth.
However, the Fuel Characteristic Classification System (FCCS) [27] considers the litter/lichen/moss layer on the ground as a part of the aboveground biomass (i.e., the aboveground biomass consists of trees (canopy, snags, and ladder), shrubs, grasses, dead wood, litter/lichen/moss layer on the ground); and the ground layer (or organic soil layer).
