Impacts of land cover changes on biogenic emission and its contribution to ozone and secondary organic aerosol in China [PDF]

Atmospheric Chemistry and Physics, 2023
The greening impacts on China from 2000 to 2017 led to an increase in vegetated areas and thus enhanced biogenic volatile organic compound (BVOC) emissions. BVOCs are regarded as important precursors for ozone (O3) and secondary organic aerosol (SOA). As

A Soft Sensor Model Based on ISOA-GPR Weighted Ensemble Learning for Marine Lysozyme Fermentation Process

, 2023
The marine lysozyme fermentation process is a highly nonlinear, multi-stage, strongly time-varying system, making it hard to ensure model stability and prediction accuracy in the global scope by a conventional single global soft sensor model. To effectively solve the above problem, this study innovatively proposed a soft sensor modeling method based on
