Maize plays a key role in agricultural profitability and food security on six continents. Successful efforts to breed higher‐yielding maize varieties depend on replicated yield trials in many environments. Capturing in‐season data can help improve and accelerate the development of regionally adapted hybrids, but collecting these data can be impractical

Polygon Mesh Generation of Branching Structures [PDF]
We present a new method for producing locally non intersecting polygon meshes of naturally branching structures. The generated polygon mesh follows the object's underlying structure as close as possible, while still producing polygon meshes that can be visualized efficiently on commonly available graphic acceleration hardware.

Differential reflectivity columns (ZDRC$$ {Z}_{\mathrm{DR}}C $$) have been detected automatically on a composite of radar data derived from five operational C‐band dual‐polarization Doppler weather radars in Switzerland. The characteristics of the detected ZDRC$$ {Z}_{\mathrm{DR}}C $$ are linked to a large sample of 173,000 crowdsourced hail ...

A Framework to Enable Eco‐Cyber‐Physical Systems for Robotics‐Focused Digital Twins in Smart Farming
ABSTRACT This paper introduces the R‐ECPS (Robotics‐focused Eco‐Cyber‐Physical System) framework for the development of robotics‐enabled digital twins, integrating human knowledge into the decision‐making process. Our framework adapts ECPS and Digital Twin (DT) definitions to agricultural field robotics.

ABSTRACT Sloughs are slow‐moving or still water systems that serve as an important ecosystem component connecting rivers and floodplains such as the Apalachicola River in northwest Florida. However, sloughs of the Apalachicola River have become hydrologically disconnected from the mainstem due to the impact of failed navigation projects such as channel

Near‐Infrared Emission Perovskites for Multifunctional Bioimaging
Currently, the acquisition of information inside living organisms is highly dependent on a variety of photodetectors with different response ranges, for which a near‐infrared‐emitting perovskite material has been designed that exhibits excellent performance under both UV and X‐ray irradiation, enabling multimodal imaging of biological tissues with only

Luminescent quantum‐confined perovskite nanocrystals self‐assemble into various superlattice shapes: rhombic, rectangular, and hollow frames. The self‐assembly conditions, nanocrystals, and superlattices are studied with optical and electron microscopies and X‐ray nanodiffraction to identify the origin of different shapes.

As urbanization increases, wildlife increasingly encounters people. Coyotes Canis latrans and red foxes Vulpes vulpes are two canid species that have readily adapted to urban environments. Citizen science has emerged as a low‐cost method of collecting data on urban‐adapted species that can benefit management agencies but may provide different results ...

Previous studies have documented den site characteristics through physical measurements recorded by researchers in the field. Using the light detection and ranging (LiDAR) sensor onboard an Apple iPad Pro, we scanned the interior of black and grizzly bear dens (n = 9) located in the Greater Yellowstone Ecosystem (GYE) to generate point clouds of den ...

The crystal structure of the mixed tetrahedral–octahedral framework silicate Cs4Ca[Si8O19] has been solved. A topological analysis of the present compound and other interrupted framework silicates is presented.Single crystals of a previously unknown caesium calcium silicate with the composition Ca4Ca[Si8O19] have been obtained during a systematic study
