The most remarkable discovery of recent years in the study of the interstellar medium has been the identification of spatial structures of sizes down to those of a few times the mean Earth-Sun distance (an Astronomical Unit , AU). Solar-System Scale microstructures are detected in cool clouds ...
The fine-scale seismic features near the inner core boundary (ICB) provide critical insights into the thermal, chemical, and geodynamical interactions between liquid and solid cores, and may shed light on the evolution mechanism of the Earth’s core. Her
in Hutiaoxia town (Xiatiaotou) in Shangri-La, it is revealed that the stable sequences including Paleozoic and Mesozoic Triassic strata of Yangtze craton are thrust nappes, overlying westward on the strata sequences of the Tibetan-Sanjiang orogenic system, with the thrusting distance over 50 km...
The seismological properties of Earth’s inner core are key to understanding its composition, dynamics and growth history. Within the inner core, fine-scale heterogeneity has previously been identified from backscattering of high-frequency compressional waves. Here we use historical earthquake and explosio...
We prepared a dataset comprising 4069 historical landslide locations and 11 conditioning factors (altitude, slope degree, profile curvature, distance to river, aspect, plan curvature, distance to road, distance to fault, rainfall, geology and land-sue) to construct a geospatial database and divided...
A human on a mission to Mars would have to travel roughly 34 million miles to get there; but, that distance is small compared to the distance to the sun. It takeslightjust over eight minutes, on average, to get from the sun to Earth traveling at 186,000 miles per second!

to the species diet, survival and reproductive necessities. A few earlier studies addressed the species distribution modelling (SDM) of Red panda in Himalaya16,20,33,34,35. These studies considered different variables like elevation, slope, aspect and distance to water etc. for predicting red ...
We used a combination of meteorological radar and lidar instrumentation at a site in Oklahoma, USA, to take a new look at the general assistance migrants receive from both vertical and horizontal airstreams during their long-distance flights. Movement in the nocturnal boundary layer (NBL) presents...
To evaluate the accuracy of completed point clouds on our datasets, we use Chamfer Distance (CD), and Earth Mover’s Distance(EMD) as evaluation metrics. CD is defined in Eq. (1), where \(|V|\) means the number of points in V. The former part measures the distance between the gener...
