Describe the spectral response of healthy green vegetation from the visible region through NIR and SWIR. Explain why blue and red energy are strongly absorbed, why some green energy is reflected, why NIR reflectance is high, and why SWIR can provide information related to plant water.

What is the calculation used to obtain dynamic compliance? An intubated patient with pneumonia is receiving mechanical ventilation with a tidal volume of 570 mL, PIP of 28 cm H2O, flow rate of 50 L/min, and PEEP of 6 cm H2O. An inspiratory hold produces a plateau pressure of 21 cm H2O. Calculate dynamic compliance. Must provide the appropriate units of measurement.

An intubated 42-year-old man with cardiogenic pulmonary edema is receiving volume-controlled ventilation with a tidal volume of 0.620 L and a baseline pressure of 0 cm H2O. The pressure manometer shows a maximum pressure of 24 cm H2O and a plateau pressure of 21 cm H2O. The ventilator is set to 18 breaths/min with a flow rate of 48 L/min. Calculate airway resistance. Must provide the units of measurement.
