Employing a combination of machine learning and deep learning techniques, we developed a novel data fusion approach that integrated Digital Elevation Model (DEM) data, MODIS satellite imagery, WOSIS soil profile data, and CHELSA environmental data. This combined dataset, named GeoBlendMDWC, was specifically designed for SOC prediction.

In low molecular weight organogels (LMWG), gelators are designed as they contain flexible groups, functionalities capable of varied H-bonding, and increased the potential to show polymorphism. We synthesized a bis-urea based LMWG G1 and isolated three distinct polymorphic phases (Form I, II, and III).
