Clinical Outcome Assessments in Parkinson's Disease: A Scoping Review of Current Rating Scales and Future Needs

Movement Disorders Clinical Practice, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Clinical outcome assessments (COAs) are essential for evaluating symptom severity, treatment response, and disease progression in Parkinson's disease (PD). As clinical knowledge evolves, it is necessary to revisit the recommendation status on the COAs to ensure their continued relevance and validity. Objectives To provide an updated

Land data assimilation of satellite‐based surface soil moisture: Impact on atmospheric simulations over the contiguous United States

Quarterly Journal of the Royal Meteorological Society, EarlyView.
Soil Moisture Active Passive soil moisture retrievals are assimilated into a land surface model and the resulting land reanalysis product is used to initialise the land component of coupled land‐atmosphere experiments. We show that the local impact of land data assimilation on the atmosphere is influenced by two factors: the magnitude by which it ...

Integrating terrestrial and canopy laser scanning for comprehensive analysis of large old trees: Implications for single tree and biodiversity research

Remote Sensing in Ecology and Conservation, EarlyView.
Canopy laser scanning (CLS) enhances 3D measurements of large trees by lifting laser scanners into the canopy. Combining CLS with terrestrial laser scanning improves point cloud precision, reduces occlusion and enables detailed assessments of tree architecture and canopy biodiversity, opening new opportunities for forest ecology.
