Monitoring Source Areas of Post‐Fire Geomorphic Processes Using an In Situ Multi‐Sensor System
Abstract Geomorphic processes that occur after wildfires in mountainous areas require a deep understanding due to complex interactions of fire effects with the landscape surface. In situ monitoring systems can support this task, even if some limitations that affect traditional sensors can hamper their action. The current work presents an advanced multi‐

Open Circuit Resonant (SansEC) Sensor Technology for Lightning Mitigation and Damage Detection and Diagnosis for Composite Aircraft Applications [PDF]
Traditional methods to protect composite aircraft from lightning strike damage rely on a conductive layer embedded on or within the surface of the aircraft composite skin.

The amyloid world hypothesis of the origin‐of‐life posits that the first functional polymers on the early Earth were structurally stable cross‐β‐sheet‐based peptide amyloids capable of Darwinian‐like evolution. Peptide amyloids display self‐replication and information transfer, as well as catalytic, adaptive, and evolutive properties.

New methods and results for quantification of lightning-aircraft electrodynamics [PDF]
The NASA F-106 collected data on the rates of change of electromagnetic parameters on the aircraft surface during over 700 direct lightning strikes while penetrating thunderstorms at altitudes from 15,000 t0 40,000 ft (4,570 to 12,190 m).

The Dabie vortex (DBV) significantly drives tornadoes in eastern China, contributing up to 40% of events in northern Anhui. Most tornadoes form in the DBV's southeastern quadrant during development/maintenance stages, where enhanced CAPE, moisture, shear, and supercell potential exist.

A novel MIMO antenna for 5G applications is proposed, achieving a wide bandwidth of 4.12 GHz, high gain of 8.8 dB, and an efficiency of 99.72%. The antenna's performance is validated through CST simulation, measurement, RLC circuit modeling, and machine learning‐based prediction, with Nonparametric Regression showing superior accuracy.

Is Fintech Good for Bank Performance? The Case of Mobile Money in the East African Community
ABSTRACT Mobile money, a technology‐driven innovation in financial services, has profoundly penetrated the financial landscape in Sub‐Saharan Africa, including banks. Yet, besides anecdotal evidence, little is known about whether mobile money adoption enhances or worsens bank performance.

Spatial Distribution of Lightning Strikes to Ground During Small Thunderstorms in Florida [PDF]
The spatial patterns of the strike points produced by cloud-to-ground lightning under three small thunderstorms have been analyzed to determine the area flash density as a function of radius from the storm center, the distribution of the nearest-neighbor

ABSTRACT Background The coupling of oxygen consumption to ATP synthesis via oxidative phosphorylation (OXPHOS) is central for cellular energy homeostasis. Some studies suggest exercise training increases the efficiency of ATP synthesis, but the molecular mechanisms are unclear.
