Study Unravels Dynamics of Plant Stress Using Solar-Induced Chlorophyll Fluorescence
A study published in the IEEE Journal of Selected Topics in Applied Earth Observations and Remote Sensing sheds light on how plants respond to stress, specifically in the case of cotton plants affected by verticillium wilt (VW). This disease can wreak havoc on cotton crops but understanding how it affects the plants at the photosynthetic physiological level has been a challenge.

AI Contributes to Ocean Eddy Detection by Synthetic Aperture Radar
Scientists at the Aerospace Information Research Institute (AIR) under the Chinese Academy of Sciences (CAS), in collaboration with their international collogues, have proposed a state-of-the-art deep-learning network, named EOLO, aiming to improve the detection of ocean eddies observed in C-band spaceborne synthetic aperture radar (SAR) imagery. This work has been published in Remote Sensing of Environment , which combines advanced AI algorithms with high-resolution spaceborne SAR data, providing a methodological basis for further studies of sub-mesoscale eddies.
