New glycoside hydrolase families of β‐1,2‐glucanases

open access: yesProtein Science, Volume 34, Issue 6, June 2025.
Abstract β‐1,2‐Glucans are natural glucose polymers produced by bacteria and play important physiological roles, including as symbiotic or pathogenic factors and in osmoregulation. Glycoside hydrolase (GH) families related to β‐1,2‐glucan metabolism (GH144, GH162, and GH189) have recently been created by identification of two β‐1,2‐glucanases and a β‐1,

Classification of Complex Wishart Matrices with a Diffusion-Reaction System guided by Stochastic Distances

open access: yes, 2015
We propose a new method for PolSAR (Polarimetric Synthetic Aperture Radar) imagery classification based on stochastic distances in the space of random matrices obeying complex Wishart distributions.

Twisted GeS Nanowire with Engineered Stacking Order and Tunable Composition

open access: yesAdvanced Materials Interfaces, Volume 12, Issue 9, May 5, 2025.
1D twisted GeS nanowires with engineered stacking orders and tunable bandgaps are synthesized using an axial screw dislocation mechanism. These nanowires exhibit enhanced photoelectronic properties and strong second harmonic generation (SHG), presenting new opportunities for future electronic and optoelectronic applications.

Sensitivity of Polarimetric SAR Decompositions to Soil Moisture and Vegetation Over Three Agricultural Sites Across a Latitudinal Gradient

open access: yesIEEE Journal of Selected Topics in Applied Earth Observations and Remote Sensing
The goal of this work is to assess the impact of polarimetric SAR decompositions for soil moisture retrieval, and identify the decomposition that performs best for varying vegetation covers and soil conditions.

One‐Hundred Fundamental, Open Questions to Integrate Methodological Approaches in Lake Ice Research

open access: yesWater Resources Research, Volume 61, Issue 5, May 2025.
Abstract The rate of technological innovation within aquatic sciences outpaces the collective ability of individual scientists within the field to make appropriate use of those technologies. The process of in situ lake sampling remains the primary choice to comprehensively understand an aquatic ecosystem at local scales; however, the impact of climate ...

Measuring Pancharatnam's relative phase for SO(3) evolutions using spin polarimetry

open access: yes, 2003
In polarimetry, a superposition of internal quantal states is exposed to a single Hamiltonian and information about the evolution of the quantal states is inferred from projection measurements on the final superposition. In this framework, we here extend

Previously Neglected Effects of Strong Horizontal Winds on Raindrop Collisions in Tropical Cyclones

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, Volume 52, Issue 8, 28 April 2025.
Abstract Persistent strong winds are a common feature within the near‐surface layer of tropical cyclones, which can induce pronounced horizontal motion as raindrops descend. However, current state‐of‐art microphysics schemes typically only consider the vertical motion of raindrops, ultimately failing to accurately simulate the collisional outcomes of ...

Modelling PolSAR Scattering Signatures at Long Wavelengths of Glacier Ice Volumes [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
The crucial role of cryosphere for understanding the global climate change has been widely recognized in recent decades [1]. Glaciers and ice sheets are the main components of the cryosphere and constitute the basic reservoir of fresh water for high ...
