Automated Global Feature Analyzer - A Driver for Tier-Scalable Reconnaissance [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
For the purposes of space flight, reconnaissance field geologists have trained to become astronauts. However, the initial forays to Mars and other planetary bodies have been done by purely robotic craft.

Focused Lunar Imaging Experiment Using the Back Projection Algorithm Based on Sanya Incoherent Scatter Radar

open access: yesRemote Sensing, 2022
Previous ground-based, radar lunar imaging experiments have usually employed the Range-Doppler (RD) algorithm. This algorithm performs in the frequency domain and has high computational efficiency. However, in the case of a long coherent integration time,

Divergent Responses of Bacterial Communities to Permafrost Degradation and Their Associations With Carbon Across Vertical Profiles

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Bacterial α‐diversity decreases, but stochasticity and community stability increase across the 15 m‐depth vertical profiles and along the degraded gradient within the active layer. The abundance and interaction of core taxa mainly control community stability in the active and permafrost layers, respectively.

Ionospheric Nighttime Enhancements at Low Latitudes Challenge Performance of the Global Ionospheric Maps

open access: yesRemote Sensing, 2022
In this study, two ionospheric nighttime enhancement (INE) events at low latitudes are selected to investigate their spatial features through the observations from Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) receivers and ionosondes. For the first time, we

Bioinspired Microreactor for Iodide Adsorption and Photooxidation Recovery

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
A bioinspired micro‐ionic‐reactor based on porous organic polymer (MIR‐POP) integrates rapid iodide capture with in situ photooxidative conversion, achieving record uptake capacity and high uptake efficiencies in simulated mining wastewater and natural brine. This bioinspired microreactor strategy offers a new avenue for sustainable iodine recovery and
