Transonic Turbulence and Density Fluctuations in the Near-Sun Solar Wind by L.-L. Zhao, A. Silwal, X. Zhu, H. Li, G. P. Zank

“…Our results show that (1) the turbulent sonic Mach number M _t gradually moves toward larger values as it approaches the Sun, until at least 11 R _⊙ , where M _t is much larger than the previously observed value of 0.1 at and above 0.3 au; (2) transonic turbulence with M _t  ∼ 1 is observed in situ for the first time and is found mostly near the Alfvén critical surface; (3) Alfvén Mach number of the bulk flow M _A shows a strong correlation with the plasma beta, indicating that most of the observed sub-Alfvénic intervals correspond to a low-beta plasma; (4) the scaling relation between density fluctuations and M _t gradually changes from a linear scaling at larger radial distances to a quadratic scaling at smaller radial distances; and (5) transonic turbulence is more compressible than subsonic turbulence, with enhanced density fluctuations and slightly flatter spectra than subsonic turbulence. …”

3D Semantic VSLAM of Indoor Environment Based on Mask Scoring RCNN by Chongben Tao, Yufeng Jin, Feng Cao, Zufeng Zhang, Chunguang Li, Hanwen Gao

“…Semantic information of independent targets in scenes provides semantic information including categories, which not only provides high accuracy of localization but also realizes the probability update of semantic estimation by marking movable objects, thereby reducing the impact of moving objects on real-time mapping. Through simulation and actual experimental comparison with other three algorithms, results show the proposed algorithm has better robustness, and semantic information used in 3D semantic mapping can be accurately obtained.…”

Spatial-temporal differentiation and influencing factors of ecosystem health in Three-River-Source national Park by Yanqin Wang, Huaju Xue, Aiqing Li, Xiaofan Ma, Ailing Sun, Jinhe Zhang

“…We found that: (1) Despite the overall positive trend observed in TNP’s ecosystem health, the trend remains relatively weak, and the health level predominantly dominated by the fragile level during the study period. (2) The spatial variation in ecosystem health within TNP was pronounced, with a noticeable increase moving from the northwest to the southeast area. It also showed significant “high-high” and “low-low” clustering effects in the eastern and northwestern regions. (3) Among all the indicators assessed, ecosystem vigor was the indicator that contributed the most to the growth of the ecosystem health index. (4) Variations in ecosystem health of TNP were mainly shaped by land use intensity and precipitation, and interactions between natural environmental factors and human activity factors enhanced the explanation of these changes. …”
