Phenotypic and Agronomic Variation Within Naturalized <i>Medicago polymorpha</i> L. (Burr Medic) in Subtropical Queensland, Australia, and Relationships with Climate and Soil Chara... by David L. Lloyd, John P. Thompson, Suzanne P. Boschma, Rick R. Young, Brian Johnson, Kemp C. Teasdale

“…Days to flowering were longer in lines from saline soils at lower altitude, and plant vigor was greatest in lines from more fertile soils with higher rainfall. A wide variation in time to flower of lines at all collection sites contributes to the adaptation of <i>M. polymorpha</i> in subtropical Queensland and potentially to its persistence with future climate change.…”

Frequency and Texture Aware Multi-Domain Feature Fusion for Remote Sensing Scene Classification by Russo Ashraf, Kang-Hyun Jo

“…These methods often require substantial computational resources to process the complex data characteristics of RS imagery, leading to inefficiencies that limit their practical application in real-time or on resource-constrained platforms. Delving into these complexities, the Efficient Spectral Inception Former (ESIF) architecture is proposed, which introduces a novel paradigm to RS scene classification by integrating multi-domain feature fusion of the spatial, texture, and spectral (frequency) domains. …”
