Quantifying microvascular responses to local heating using optical coherence tomography: Comparison between skin sites and sex differences

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Summary of the study design, metholodgy, results and conclusions. Abstract Due to a lack of technical capacity to directly visualise and quantify microvessels in the skin, little is known regarding regional and/or sex differences. We compared diameter, velocity, flow and density at four regional sites using a novel optical coherence tomography (OCT ...

Effect of chronic high‐altitude hypoxia on retinal vascular phenotype, choroidal and retinal vasoreactivity in Peruvian highlanders

Experimental Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract High‐altitude chronic hypoxia can induce excessive erythrocytosis (EE, defined as a haemoglobin concentration of ≥21 g/dL in men), leading to hyperviscosity and promoting endothelial dysfunction. We aimed to assess whether EE affects the retinal vascular phenotype and the ophthalmological vascular response to CO2.

SRCNN: Stacked-Residual Convolutional Neural Network for Improving Human Activity Classification Based on Micro-Doppler Signatures of FMCW Radar [PDF]

Journal of Electromagnetic Engineering and Science
Current methods for daily human activity classification primarily rely on optical images from cameras or wearable sensors. Despite their high detection reliability, camera-based approaches suffer from several drawbacks, such as low-light conditions ...

River Sand and Gravel Mining: Global Drivers, Impacts, and Pathways for Sustainable Management

Reviews of Geophysics, Volume 64, Issue 3, September 2026.
Abstract River sand and gravel are mined worldwide at volumes that now rival their natural replenishment, yet quantitative knowledge of this mining activity and its consequences lags far behind many other global environmental pressures. We synthesize 411 peer‐reviewed studies published since 1974 within a new Driver‐to‐Management Pathway for ...

Characterization of Droplet Formation in Ultrasonic Spray Coating: Influence of Ink Formulation Using Phase Doppler Anemometry and Machine Learning

Advanced Materials Technologies, Volume 11, Issue 15, 7 August 2026.
This study explores how machine learning models, trained on small experimental datasets obtained via Phase Doppler Anemometry (PDA), can accurately predict droplet size (D32) in ultrasonic spray coating (USSC). By capturing the influence of ink complexity (solvent, polymer, nanoparticles), power, and flow rate, the model enables precise droplet control

Metasurface‐Enabled Active‐Like Passive Radar

Advanced Science, Volume 13, Issue 44, 7 August 2026.
A programmable space‐time‐coding metasurface embeds distinct spatiotemporal tags into ambient wireless signals, allowing passive radar to operate in an active‐like manner. By enabling code‐correlated reconstruction under interference, the approach supports robust real‐time UAV tracking in complex environments and points to intelligent, low‐power ...
