A method integrating a non-stationary random field for constrained inversion of CSAMT data by Qianwei DAI, Luyao GUO, Yun WU, Zhexian XIONG, Dan DUAN, Zhonglin BAO, Hongfei WU, Fengyun HAO

“…ObjectiveThe inversion of controlled-source audio-frequency magnetotelluric (CSAMT) data remains challenging due to two key issues: computational efficiency and resolution. To tackle these two issues, especially the over-smoothing effect caused by traditional regularization methods in estimating complex geological structures, this study proposed an improved regularization inversion method to reflect the spatial distribution characteristics of subsurface physical property parameters more accurately. …”

A novel nonparametric adaptive kernel density estimation method for removing nonrandom noise from ICESat-2 photon-counting LiDAR data by Zijia Wang, Sheng Nie, Cheng Wang, Xiaohuan Xi, Xiaoxiao Zhu, Jieying Lao, Bisheng Yang

“…However, its unique photon-counting detection mechanism and vertical profiling introduce substantial noise, particularly nonrandom noise from multiple scattering and specular reflections. These two noise types often coexist in large-scale regions, yet most existing parameterized algorithms are designed to address only one, limiting their denoising effectiveness in complex environments. …”

Trade-off between toxicity and signal detection orchestrated by frequency- and density-dependent genes. by Laury Arthaud, Selim Ben Rokia-Mille, Hussein Raad, Aviv Dombrovsky, Nicolas Prevost, Maria Capovilla, Alain Robichon

“…In our current report, we show that alleles of for encoding different cGMP-dependent kinase isoforms influence the oxidation of aldehyde groups of aromatic molecules emitted by plants via Aldh-III and a phosphorylatable adaptor. The enhanced efficiency of oxidation of aldehyde odorants into carboxyl groups by the action of for lessens their action and toxicity, which should facilitate exploration and guidance in a complex odor environment. …”
