How Can the Latent Heat Entrainment Flux in the Convective Boundary Layer be Characterized?
Abstract A proposed theoretical description of the latent heat entrainment flux at the top of a convective boundary layer (CBL) was tested. It is related to the vertical velocity scale times the ratio of the water vapor mixing ratio (WVMR) gradient to the Brunt‐Väisälä frequency. This relation was tested with different LiDAR and radiosonde measurements.

Effects of Mineralogical Inhomogeneity on Aggregate Dust Optical Properties and Lidar Observables
Abstract Dust aerosols comprise irregular grains and aggregates with various mineralogical mixtures. However, most optical models use effective refractive indices to represent particles. This study develops an inhomogeneous aggregate model assigning mineral‐dependent refractive indices to constituent elements and representing global mineral volume ...

Addressing stationarity violations in double‐observer drone surveys: A koala case study
Independent drone observers survey the same area with a temporal offset. Movement between passes violates stationarity, causing re‐detections of the same individual to be misclassified as independent observations and inflating abundance estimates. Incorporating movement information using a hidden Markov model links plausible re‐detections and reduces ...

Measurements of Water Vapor Profiles with Compact DIAL in the Tokyo Metropolitan Area
In recent years, the frequency of occurrence of locally heavy rainfall that can cause extensive damages, has been increasing in Japan. For early prediction of heavy rainfall, it is useful to measure the water vapor vertical distribution upwind cumulus ...

Wavelength‐Multiplexed 2D Beam Steering via a Passive Diffractive Network
Illustration of a wavelength‐multiplexed diffractive beam steering system, which is composed of K cascaded diffractive layers, each containing phase‐modulating elements that are jointly optimized using deep learning–based optimization. When illuminated with a set of wavelengths {λ1,λ2,…,λNw}$\{ {{{\lambda }_1},{{\lambda }_2},\ldots ,{{\lambda }_{{{N}_w}

TrustSpec reuses a single spectral digital twin both to train a deep ensemble and to verify each prediction via analysis‐by‐synthesis. A two‐channel trust plane automatically releases, reviews, or rejects every SiC epitaxial thickness reading, achieving 0.110 μm mean error with full out‐of‐distribution rejection in simulation.

Abstract Utilizing synthetic models for the interpretation of ground‐penetrating radar (GPR) profiles can aid in the detection of hydrogeological structures by identifying their signatures. In this study, finite difference (FD) forward modelling was used to understand the detection ability of 50 MHz GPR for (1) the quaternary deposit–bedrock contact ...
