Validation of a Particle Image Velocimetry Algorithm Through Comparative Field and Laboratory Analysis

River Research and Applications, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Flow velocity measurement is fundamental to hydrological and hydraulic studies, providing essential data for streamflow estimation and river dynamics analysis. Traditional in situ methods like propeller gauges and acoustic Doppler current profilers are accurate but intrusive and labour‐intensive, while non‐intrusive image processing methods ...

Automated object detection based on YOLOv11 for monitoring benthic population dynamics: A new approach combining photogrammetry and open‐source GIS tools applied to sea cucumbers

Remote Sensing in Ecology and Conservation, EarlyView.
This research established a new object detection model based on YOLOv11 to recognise benthic organisms, specifically sea cucumbers, by utilising high‐resolution photogrammetric‐based orthomosaics acquired along infralittoral Mediterranean Sea beds. The model demonstrated impressive performance metrics and, when combined with the Deepness plugin for the

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

Remote 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 ...

Practical Methodology for Developing Visions for Carbon‐Neutral Cities and Communities

Sustainable Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Cities and communities play important roles in sustainable development and climate change mitigation. This study presents a novel framework for developing carbon‐neutral visions for cities and communities. We established five “principles,” investigated options encompassing four parameters (management, goal setting, actions, and quantification),

Exploration of High and Low Frequency Options for Subperception Spinal Cord Stimulation Using Neural Dosing Parameter Relationships: The HALO Study

Neuromodulation: Technology at the Neural Interface, EarlyView., 2021
Abstract Objectives Subperception spinal cord stimulation (SCS) is described mostly utilizing waveforms that require high energy. However, the necessity of these waveforms for effective subperception has not been established. We aimed to explore whether effective subperception pain relief can be achieved using frequencies below 1 kHz.

An Islamic Perspective on the Sustainable Development Goals: Exploring Key Challenges From the Ravi Riverfront Urban Development Project

Sustainable Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Projects are typically viewed as mechanisms for delivering products and services; however, this study examines projects from the distinct perspective of grand challenges (GCs). The selected case is the Ravi Riverfront Urban Development Project in Lahore, Pakistan—a grand challenge project (GCP).

Why you need to use ground control points (GCP) for drone mapping

GEOmedia
The article explains why Ground Control Points (GCPs) remain essential in drone mapping, even with the advent of RTK/PPK drones. GCPs act as reliable reference markers that correct positional errors, ensuring that aerial imagery aligns accurately with ...

Predicting Runtime in Spark‐Like Systems With Allocation‐Aware Deterministic Models

Software: Practice and Experience, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objectives Apache Spark is widely used for distributed data processing, but accurately predicting application execution time remains challenging because performance depends on application structure, resource configuration, and executor‐allocation behavior.

Sargassum Lung Syndrome: Air Flow Obstruction and Bronchial Inflammation Are Observed After Prolonged Exposure to Sargassum Gas Emissions in the Eastern Caribbean

Environmental Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Sargassum inundation of Caribbean and American shorelines is a growing environmental hazard. Hydrogen sulfide (H2S) and ammonia (NH3) produced by decomposing Sargassum could be involved in airway obstruction and bronchial inflammation. The study was undertaken to evaluate the effects of exposure to H2S and NH3 gases emitted during Sargassum ...
