Propagation of laser light is distorted in the presence of atmospheric turbulence. This poses an issue for sensing, free-space optical communications, and transmission of power. The presented system offers a novel solution to mitigate the effects of turbulence. By rapidly probing a turbulent volume by varying a beam's spatial and phase characteristics, the best transmission mode can be determined and updated in real time. Unlike a traditional tip-tilt system, this scheme is fully electronic, and has a scalable architecture to leverage multiple optical transmission paths simultaneously. This optical control system greatly improves power efficiency and successful recovery of data through environments with strong turbulence.

Rectification effects of regional air-sea interactions over western boundary current on large-scale sea surface temperature and extra-tropical storm tracks.

The warm Western Boundary Currents (WBCs) and their zonal extensions are persistent, deep, strong and narrow oceanic currents. They are known to anchor and energize the Extra-Tropical storm tracks by frontal thermal air-sea interactions. However, even in the latest generation of climate models, WBCs are characterized by large biases, and both the present storm-track activity and its recent intensification are poorly estimated.

Trace measurement of aerosol chemical composition in workplace atmospheres requires the development of high-throughput aerosol collectors that are compact, hand-portable, and can be operated using personal pumps. We describe the design and characterization of a compact, high flow, Turbulent-mixing Condensation Aerosol-in-Liquid Concentrator (TCALC) that allows direct collection of aerosols as liquid suspensions, for off-line chemical, biological, or microscopy analysis. The TCALC unit, measuring approximately 12 × 16 × 18 cm, operates at an aerosol sample flowrate of up to 10 L min, using rapid mixing of a hot flow saturated with water vapor and a cold aerosol sample flow, thereby promoting condensational growth of aerosol particles.

Recent Antarctic sea-ice decline is a substantial source of concern, notably the record low in 2023 (ref. ). Progress has been made towards establishing the causes of ice loss but uncertainty remains about its consequences for ocean-atmosphere interaction.

The hydrodynamic and thermal interactions between neighboring vapor bubbles on hot surfaces play a crucial role in heat transport and flow characteristics. To investigate these interactions, we conducted numerical simulations of saturated vapor bubbles in a two-dimensional square enclosure filled with liquid water. The water was heated at the bottom and cooled at the top to replicate boiling at 100^{∘}C and normal atmospheric pressure.

Interferometric Synthetic Aperture Radar (InSAR) is a widely used remote sensing technology for Earth observation, enabling the detection and measurement of ground deformation through the generation of interferograms. However, phase noise remains a critical factor that degrades interferogram quality. To address this issue, this study proposes MOMFNet, a deep learning approach for InSAR phase filtering based on multi-objective multi-kernel feature extraction that leverages multi-objective multi-kernel feature extraction.
