Topographic and Climatic Determinants of Soil Organic Carbon Across Landscapes: A Meta‐Analysis
Land Degradation &Development, EarlyView.ABSTRACT The soil is the greatest natural store of organic carbon, holding between 1500 to 1550 Pg C of organic carbon at the top 100 cm of the soil globally—roughly twice the carbon pool in the atmosphere. The spatial distribution of this stock is controlled by a complex chain of controls: topographic position regulates the hydrological redistribution,

Deep Learning‐Based Dynamic Segmentation of the Left Atrium in 4D Flow MRI
Magnetic Resonance in Medicine, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Purpose To design a deep learning pipeline for automated, time‐resolved segmentation of the left atrium (LA) from 4D flow MRI data. Methods We studied 100 individuals including 65 patients with atrial fibrillation (AF) and 35 healthy subjects (HS) resulting in 2530 4D flow MRI time‐volumes acquired in different centers and scanners.

Fast Localized Calibration for Spatial‐Spectral Excitation Without Fly‐Back Gradients
Magnetic Resonance in Medicine, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Purpose Standard spatial‐spectral excitation pulses apply a fly‐back gradient between sub‐pulses, limiting, for example, how thin the slices can be (> 4 mm). Without fly‐back gradients, slices can be as thin as 1.7 mm but require a phase calibration for the sub‐pulses with inverted gradients due to system imperfections.
