The vegetation component in climate models has advanced since the late 1960s from a uniform prescription of surface parameters to plant functional types (PFTs) PFTs are used in global land-surface models to provide parameter values for every model grid cell With a simple photosynthesis model we derive parameters for all site years within the Fluxnet eddy covariance data set We compare the model pa
The intensification of the hydrological cycle, with an observed and modeled increase in drought incidence and severity, underscores the need to quantify drought effects on carbon cycling and the terrestrial sink. FLUXNET, a global network of eddy covariance towers, provides dense data streams of meteorological data, and through flux partitioning and gap filling algorithms, estimates of net ecosyst
The relative complexity of the mechanisms underlying savanna ecosystem dynamics, in comparison to other biomes such as temperate and tropical forests, challenges the representation of such dynamics in ecosystem and Earth system models. A realistic representation of processes governing carbon allocation and phenology for the two defining elements of savanna vegetation (namely trees and grasses) may
The human leukocyte antigen (HLA) is the main genetic determinant of multiple sclerosis (MS) risk. Within the HLA, the class II HLA-DRB1*15:01 allele exerts a disease-promoting effect, whereas the class I HLA-A*02 allele is protective. The CIITA gene is crucial for expression of class II HLA molecules and has previously been found to associate with several autoimmune diseases, including MS and typ
Despite declining incidence rates, gastric cancer (GC) is a major cause of death worldwide. Its aetiology may involve dietary antioxidant micronutrients such as carotenoids and tocopherols. The objective of this study was to determine the association of plasma levels of seven common carotenoids, their total plasma concentration, retinol and alpha- and gamma-tocopherol, with the risk of gastric ade

In this paper, we investigate the effects of different augmentation strategies in self-supervised representation learning from electrocardiograms. Our study examines the impact of random resized crop and time out on downstream performance. We also consider the importance of the signal length. Furthermore, instead of using two augmented copies of the sample as a positive pair, we suggest augmenting
In this paper we revisit the Time-of-Arrival self-calibration problem. In particular we focus on imbalanced problem instances where there are significantly more sources compared to the number of receivers, which is a common configuration in real applications. Using an implicit representation, we are able to re-parameterize the sensor node self-calibration problem using only the parameters of the r
In this work, we introduce a novel approach for designing the transmit frequency offset scheme based on Cramér-Rao lower bound (CRLB) minimization for a frequency diverse array multiple-input multiple-output (FDA-MIMO) radar. The problem originates in non-uniform FDA radar where each frequency offset scheme derives from a specific mathematical model, but where no optimization is conducted with res
The polar format algorithm (PFA) is a popular choice for general bistatic synthetic aperture radar (BiSAR) imaging due to its computational efficiency and adaptability to situations with complicated geometries or arbitrary flight trajectories. However, efficient and accurate compensation of 2-D residual phase errors induced by the wavefront curvature remains challenging when obtaining high-quality
Background: A new Chronic Kidney Disease Epidemiology Collaboration equation without the race variable has been recently proposed (CKD-EPIAS). This equation has neither been validated outside USA nor compared with the new European Kidney Function Consortium (EKFC) and Lund-Malmö Revised (LMREV) equations, developed in European cohorts. Methods: Standardized creatinine and measured glomerular filtr
This paper addresses the weak signal detection problem in a massive colocated multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) radar. To cope with the sheer amount of data produced by the large-scale antennas, a low-bit quantizer is introduced in the sampling process to enable both for hardware limitations and a high detection performance. The generalized likelihood ratio test (GLRT) detector is proposed for
Knowledge of human fetal blood development and how it differs from adult blood is highly relevant to our understanding of congenital blood and immune disorders and childhood leukemia, of which the latter can originate in utero. Blood formation occurs in waves that overlap in time and space, adding to heterogeneity, which necessitates single-cell approaches. Here, a combined single-cell immunopheno
This data package contains high accuracy CO2 dry air mole fractions from 58 ICOS and non-ICOS European observatories at in total 132 observation levels, collected by the ICOS Atmosphere Thematic Centre (ATC) and provided by the station contributors. The package is part of the Globalviewplus v8.0 data product, released in 2022 and is intended for use in carbon cycle inverse modeling, model evalua
The identification of nonlinear chirp signals has attracted notable attention in the recent literature, including estimators such as the variational mode decomposition and the nonlinear chirp mode estimator. However, most presented methods fail to process signals with close frequency intervals or depend on user-determined parameters that are often non-trivial to select optimally. In this work, we
If you really want to know how much Australia contributes to the amount of carbon dioxide (CO₂) in the atmosphere, you have to study all the “sources” and “sinks”.Sources release CO₂ into the atmosphere, while sinks take it out. There are sources from human activities, such as burning fossil fuels, and there are natural sinks such as plants absorbing CO₂. You can tally it all up on a balance sheet
