In addition, the value of the absorption peak showed a decreasing trend initially, but then exhibited an increasing trend as the irradiation dose increased.

The mean patch size (MPS) also showed a similar trend like LPI for farmland, plantation, settlement, natural vegetation, and waterbody, however a decreasing trend is observed for grassland and barren land ( Table 10 ).

Interestingly, the effect of all these compounds on CarE activity exhibited biphasic dose responses with an increasing trend from 0.05 or 0.1 to 0.5 or 1 mg·g −1 and a decreasing trend from 1 or 5 to 10 mg·g −1 ( Figure 4A-E ).
