AN INTERCOMPARISON OF PASSIVE TERRESTRIAL REMOTE SENSING TECHNOLOGIES TO DERIVE LAI AND CANOPY COVER METRICS [PDF]
Forest indicators such as Leaf Area Index (LAI) and vegetation cover type are recognised as Essential Climate Variables (ECVs) which support the '…research, modelling, analysis, and capacity-building activities…' requirements of the United Nations ...

Maskless Fabrication of PLA‐Based Neural Arrays for CNS Recording and Stimulation
Biodegradable neural interfaces enable bidirectional communication with the CNS. Through electrochemical characterization, ageing tests with impedance monitoring, and in vivo validation, we assess the performance of PLA‐based epicortical and spinal implants.

Reliability of canopy photography for forest ecology and biodiversity studies
Understory is a key component of forest biodiversity. The structure of the forest stand and the horizontal composition of the canopy play a major role on the light regime of the understory, which in turn affects the abundance and the diversity of the ...

A Low‐Cost, Handheld Optical Stiffness Sensor for Minimally Invasive Surgery
A novel handheld stiffness sensor is presented for real‐time tissue stiffness characterization. By simultaneously sensing contact force and tissue deformation, the device enables accurate stiffness quantification without requiring precise manual control. This approach offers a promising solution for intraoperative tumor detection and minimally invasive

We developed the ASCAL pipeline, integrating complementary spatial transcriptomics, to construct a high‐fidelity mouse whole‐eye single‐cell atlas. Applying ASCAL to a retinal artery occlusion (RAO) model revealed spatially restricted immune activation localized to the ganglion cell layer and the selective depletion of a translationally active, outer ...
