Scylla. VI. Parsec-scale Dust Extinction Maps in the SMC and LMC

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
We present a novel methodology for mapping dust extinction in nearby galaxies at parsec-scale resolution. We apply it to 68 Hubble Space Telescope (HST) fields within the Small and Large Magellanic Clouds (23 fields in the SMC and 45 fields in the LMC ...

Deep learning‐based super‐resolution reconstruction and improved YOLOv9 for efficient benthos detection: a case study at Lake Hamana, Japan

open access: yesRemote Sensing in Ecology and Conservation, EarlyView.
This study presents a UAV‐based framework that integrates deep learning‐based super‐resolution reconstruction and an enhanced YOLO detector to improve centimetre‐scale benthic organism monitoring. Using hermit crabs in Lake Hamana, a coastal lagoon in Japan, as a case study, the method substantially enhanced small‐object detection performance ...

Scylla. IV. Intrinsic Stellar Properties and Line-of-sight Dust Extinction Measurements toward 1.5 Million Stars in the SMC and LMC

open access: yesThe Astrophysical Journal
By analyzing the spectral energy distributions (SEDs) of resolved stars in nearby galaxies, we can constrain their stellar properties and line-of-sight dust extinction.

Mapping Scytonemin Pigment Content and Biocrust Functional Indicators Using High‐Resolution Multispectral Imagery

open access: yesRemote Sensing in Ecology and Conservation, EarlyView.
We demonstrate that high‐resolution multispectral imagery combined with machine learning can accurately predict key biocrust functional indicators, particularly the UV‐protective pigment scytonemin, across dryland ecosystems. Using fine‐scale imagery acquired in the Chihuahuan Desert and Colorado Plateau, we identified spectral bands strongly ...

Adjoint inversion modeling of Asian dust emission using lidar observations [PDF]

open access: yesAtmospheric Chemistry and Physics, 2008
A four-dimensional variational (4D-Var) data assimilation system for a regional dust model (RAMS/CFORS-4DVAR; RC4) is applied to an adjoint inversion of a heavy dust event over eastern Asia during 20 March–4 April 2007. The vertical profiles of

Solar radiative effects of non-spherical mineral dust particles during SAMUM 2006 [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
During the SAMUM campaign comprehensive measurements were performed in May-June 2006 concerning the physico-chemical and radiative properties of Saharan mineral dust.

National Policy Coherence Counts for Reducing Inequality in Global Climate and Development Agendas

open access: yesSustainable Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT International institutions promote policy coherence as crucial to the effective and fair implementation of global sustainability agendas, though the evidence for its benefits is slim. We present here the first systematic cross‐country dataset on the consequences of national government efforts to promote policy coherence for vulnerable groups ...

The Osmium Isotope Signature of Phanerozoic Large Igneous Provinces

open access: yesGeophysical Monograph Series, Page 229-246., 2021

Exploring the links between Large Igneous Provinces and dramatic environmental impact

An emerging consensus suggests that Large Igneous Provinces (LIPs) and Silicic LIPs (SLIPs) are a significant driver of dramatic global environmental and biological changes, including mass extinctions.

Extinction Distributions in Nearby Star-resolved Galaxies. I. M31

open access: yesThe Astronomical Journal
An extinction distribution of the Andromeda galaxy (M31) is constructed with member stars as tracers by fitting multiband photometric data from UKIRT/WFCAM, Panoramic Survey Telescope and Rapid Response System 1, and Gaia DR3.
