Assessing the Future ODYSEA Satellite Mission for the Estimation of Ocean Surface Currents, Wind Stress, Energy Fluxes, and the Mechanical Coupling Between the Ocean and the Atmosp... by Marco Larrañaga, Lionel Renault, Alexander Wineteer, Marcela Contreras, Brian K. Arbic, Mark A. Bourassa, Ernesto Rodriguez

“…Over the past decade, several studies based on coupled ocean–atmosphere simulations have shown that the oceanic surface current feedback to the atmosphere (CFB) leads to a slow-down of the mean oceanic circulation and, overall, to the so-called eddy killing effect, i.e., a sink of kinetic energy from oceanic eddies to the atmosphere that damps the oceanic mesoscale activity by about 30%, with upscaling effects on large-scale currents. …”

Global assessment of leukemia care quality: insights from the quality of care index (QCI) from 1990 to 2021Research in context by Yuzhe Pan, Qian Liu, Nan Zhang, Shuang Peng, Xinqi Li, Fuling Zhou

“…Our modified QCI method outperformed the original approach, particularly when the variance explained by the first principal component was below 80%, demonstrating higher correlation with the healthcare access and quality index (HAQI) (Pearson r = 0.91 vs. 0.89) and improved explanatory power (R2 = 0.82 vs. 0.79). Over past three decades, QCI was highest in San Marino (97.72%) and lowest in Fiji (3.51%), with significant regional variations across SDI levels (F = 133.40, p < 2e-16). …”
