A significant spatial resolution enhancement scheme for digital optical frequency comb (DOFC)-based fast Brillouin optical time-domain analysis (BOTDA) is proposed and experimentally demonstrated by using frequency-agility probes, without sacrificing the frequency resolution. The proposed system ensures high spatial resolution by using short frame duration, meanwhile enabling high frequency resolution retrieval of the Brillouin gain spectrum using frequency interleaving of multiple frequency-agility DOFC probes. Additionally, quadratic phase coding is introduced to release the influence of the high peak to average power ratio of the probes. Eventually, the proposed BOTDA sensor achieves a record 5-m spatial resolution over 10-km fiber with less than 2-MHz frequency uncertainty, and a 1-GHz dynamic measurement range. For proof of concept, 10-Hz vibration sensing is also successfully demonstrated at a 40-Hz sampling rate, showing great potential for fast measurement. It is worth mentioning that a higher spatial resolution can be achieved by using more frequency-agility DOFC probes, albeit at the expense of increasing the measurement time.

Single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq) and spatial transcriptomics (ST) techniques hold great value in evaluating the heterogeneity and spatial characteristics of hematopoietic cells within tissues. These two techniques are highly complementary, with scRNA-seq offering single-cell resolution and ST retaining spatial information. However, there is an urgent demand for well-organized and user-friendly toolkits capable of handling single-cell and spatial information.

Coffee yield exhibits plant-level variability; however, due to operational issues, especially in smaller operations, the scouting and management of coffee yields are often hindered. Thus, a cell-size approach at the field level is proposed as a simple and efficient solution to overcome these constraints. This study aimed to present the feasibility of a cell-size approach to characterize spatio-temporal coffee production based on soil and plant attributes and yield (biennial effects) and to assess strategies for enhanced soil fertilization recommendations and economic results.

Recent developments in single-cell multi-omics technologies have provided the ability to identify diverse cell types and decipher key components of the tumor microenvironment (TME), leading to important advancements toward a much deeper understanding of how tumor microenvironment heterogeneity contributes to cancer progression and therapeutic resistance. These technologies are able to integrate data from molecular genomic, transcriptomic, proteomics, and metabolomics studies of cells at a single-cell resolution scale that give rise to the full cellular and molecular complexity in the TME. Understanding the complex and sometimes reciprocal relationships among cancer cells, CAFs, immune cells, and ECs has led to novel insights into their immense heterogeneity in functions, which can have important consequences on tumor behavior.

Engineers, geomorphologists, and ecologists acknowledge the need for temporally and spatially resolved measurements of sediment clogging (also known as colmation) in permeable gravel-bed rivers due to its adverse impacts on water and habitat quality. In this paper, we present a novel method for non-destructive, real-time measurements of pore-scale sediment deposition and monitoring of clogging by using wire-mesh sensors (WMSs) embedded in spheres, forming a smart gravel bed (GravelSens). The measuring principle is based on one-by-one voltage excitation of transmitter electrodes, followed by simultaneous measurements of the resulting current by receiver electrodes at each crossing measuring pores.
