Modeling pine forest growing stock volume in subtropical regions of China using airborne Lidar data by Zige Lan, Xiandie Jiang, Guiying Li, Yagang Lu, Hongwen Yao, Dengsheng Lu

“…However, accurately estimating pine forest GSV over large areas using airborne Lidar is challenging due to the complex stand structure and the influence of environmental conditions. This research employed airborne Lidar data and sample plots from 11 typical sites across the northern, central, and southern subtropical regions of China to explore modeling approaches for pine forest GSV estimation. …”

Impact of dendritic size and dendritic topology on burst firing in pyramidal cells. by Ronald A J van Elburg, Arjen van Ooyen

“…Dendritic morphology is not fixed but can undergo significant changes in many pathological conditions. Using computational models of neocortical pyramidal cells, we here show that not only the total length of the apical dendrite but also the topological structure of its branching pattern markedly influences inter- and intraburst spike intervals and even determines whether or not a cell exhibits burst firing. …”

State of Health Estimation for Lithium-Ion Batteries Using an Explainable XGBoost Model with Parameter Optimization by Zhenghao Xiao, Bo Jiang, Jiangong Zhu, Xuezhe Wei, Haifeng Dai

“…Then, a SOH estimation method based on the XGBoost algorithm is established, and the model’s hyper-parameters are tuned using the Bayesian optimization algorithm (BOA) to enhance the adaptiveness of the proposed estimation model. Additionally, the Tree SHapley Additive exPlanation (TreeSHAP) technique is employed to analyze the explainability of the estimation model and reveal the influence of different features on SOH evaluation. …”

Impact of extreme seasonal drought on ecosystem carbon‒water coupling across China by Meng-Tian Huang, Pan-Mao Zhai

“…Results showed that the direction and magnitude of drought impacts on WUE depend on the occurrence time of extreme drought and the seasonal dynamics of regional ecological and climatic conditions. Across the vegetated regions in China, the most widespread reduction in WUE under extreme drought conditions was observed in summer, whereas approximately 60% of the study area showed positive changes in WUE under extreme drought conditions in spring. …”
