A Novel Machine Learning for Ethanol and Methanol Classification with Capacitive Soil Moisture (CSM) Sensors by Devina Intan Sari, Suryasatriya Trihandaru, Hanna Arini Parhusip

“…Although Gas Chromatography (GC) is highly accurate, it is costly, highlighting the need for a more affordable method for alcohol detection. Ethanol and methanol have different evaporation rates and dielectric constants, suggesting the potential for classification as an alternative initial step to GC based on differences in dielectric due to evaporation using Capacitive Soil Moisture (CSM) sensors, although it has not been previously attempted. …”

Multiple introductions of the dengue vector, Aedes aegypti, into California. by Evlyn Pless, Andrea Gloria-Soria, Benjamin R Evans, Vicki Kramer, Bethany G Bolling, Walter J Tabachnick, Jeffrey R Powell

“…These results expand previous work on the origin of California A. aegypti with the novel finding that this species entered California on multiple occasions, likely some years before its initial detection. This work has implications for mosquito surveillance and vector control activities not only in California but also in other regions where the distribution of this invasive mosquito is expanding.…”
