Offsets in tide-gauge reference levels detected by satellite altimetry: ten case studies.

Unlabelled: Comparing measurements of absolute sea level by satellite altimetry and relative sea level by a tide gauge can reveal errors in either measurement system. Combining the measurements can determine vertical land motion (VLM) at the tide gauge. We here discuss ten case studies in which a tide gauge has likely experienced a small ( cm), discontinuous offset in the vertical, suggesting inadvertent loss of reference-level stability.

Learning-based three-dimensional registration with weak bounding box supervision.

: Image registration is the process of aligning images, and it is a fundamental task in medical image analysis. While many tasks in the field of image analysis, such as image segmentation, are handled almost entirely with deep learning and exceed the accuracy of conventional algorithms, currently available deformable image registration methods are often still conventional. Deep learning methods for medical image registration have recently reached the accuracy of conventional algorithms.

': A qualitative evaluation of a collaborative advance care planning-approach.

Background: Impaired readiness may hinder purposeful advance care planning in cancer patients. To reduce barriers to participation in end-of-life decision-making, a collaborative intervention was developed combining a psycho-oncological approach of dignity-based and cognitive-behavioural interventions, followed by a standardised advance care planning-process.

Aim: To evaluate the novel collaborative advance care planning-approach by synthetising cancer patient and carer perspectives on communicational and relational effects.
