Comparative Field Evaluation of Active and Passive Transient‐Based Techniques for Pipeline Condition Assessment

open access: yesWater Resources Research, Volume 62, Issue 9, September 2026.
Abstract Hydraulic transient‐based techniques are increasingly applied for non‐intrusive condition assessment of buried water pipelines. This study presents systematic field experiments comparing active and passive approaches within the asbestos cement water supply network at the University of Canterbury.

Theoretical and Experimental Comparison of Off-Grid Sparse Bayesian Direction-of-Arrival Estimation Algorithms

open access: yesIEEE Access, 2017
Off-grid sparse Bayesian learning algorithms for estimating the directions-of-arrival (DOAs) of multiple signals using an array of sensors are attractive in practice due to three primary reasons.

Facilitating macrosystem biology with organismal‐scale airborne remote sensing: Challenges and opportunities

open access: yesFunctional Ecology, Volume 40, Issue 9, Page 2760-2776, September 2026.
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract Emergent ecosystem properties, such as population and trait distributions, biodiversity and energy and water fluxes, occur because of the dynamic interactions of individuals in their environment.

Lakes Amplify Carbon Emissions Relative to Downstream Export in Aquatic Networks

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, Volume 53, Issue 16, 28 August 2026.
Abstract Inland waters emit and export large quantities of carbon (C), and the balance between emission and export determines the role of inland waters in the global C cycle. Modeling studies of stream‐lake networks suggest that C emission‐to‐export ratios (emission:export) are higher in lake‐rich networks with longer network residence times (NRT), yet

Strategy for Detection and High-Resolution Characterization of Authigenic Carbonate Cold Seep Habitats Using Ships and Autonomous Underwater Vehicles on Glacially Influenced Terrain

open access: yesFrontiers in Marine Science, 2019
Cold seep habitats with authigenic carbonates and associated chemosynthetic communities in glacially influenced terrains constitute an important part of the benthic ecosystems, but they are difficult to detect in large-scale seabed surveys.

One Stone Two Birds: Sustainable Perovskite Solar Cells Obtained by Using Water‐Based Recycled PbI2 and Guanidinium Thiocyanate Post‐Treatment

open access: yesChemSusChem, Volume 19, Issue 15, 14 August 2026.
A simple water‐based recycling and recrystallization method enables the recovery of high‐purity PbI2 from spent perovskite solar cells. With guanidinium thiocyanate treatment to restore film quality, PSCs fabricated using the recycled PbI2 achieve a PCE of 17.25%, comparable to those made from commercial high‐purity PbI2. This scalable, cost‐effective,

Control System for the Navigation of the Agricultural Robots: A Review

open access: yesJournal of Field Robotics, Volume 43, Issue 5, Page 3474-3505, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Control systems for the navigation of autonomous agricultural robots—particularly those operating in uneven terrain and in the presence of static or dynamic obstacles—have advanced considerably in recent years. As conventional machinery evolves toward increasingly automated systems, the design of reliable navigation controllers has become ...

Improving Protection Agains Intruders Using Passive Sonar

open access: yes, 2011
Divers and small vessels are increasingly recognized as a potential threat to high value assets. Harbour and waterside surveillance systems that are used to counter the threat of divers are usually based on active sonar, whose performance can be limited ...
