Comparison and Impact Factor Analysis of Ground PM2.5 Retrieved by Aqua and Himawari-8 Satellite Products in Guangdong, China by Tingyuan Li, Xuejiao Deng, Jingyang Chen, Jie Xu, Jin Shen

“…Abstract Fine particulate matter (particles sizes < 2.5 µm; PM2.5) concentrations can be obtained at high spatial resolutions using satellite remote sensing. Previous studies on PM2.5 concentrations in Guangdong have used the aerosol optical depth (AOD) determined by MODIS sensors on the Terra and Aqua satellites, which both have a transit time of once per day. …”

Accounting for Australia’s threatened species: Estimating historical and recent change in terrestrial habitat by Katherine M. Giljohann, Karel Mokany, Simon Ferrier, Thomas D. Harwood, Chris Ware, Kristen J. Williams

“…This involves: 1) estimating the historical (pre-intensification) habitat distribution for listed threatened species, and 2) deriving a metric of habitat provision for threatened species by combining the historical habitat distributions with remotely sensed annual ecosystem condition data. We demonstrate the method for Australia using 1,518 nationally-listed threatened species and ecosystem condition data for 2017 and 2018, and present summaries by sub-national jurisdictions.Across Australia, intensively developed regions had the greatest number of threatened species based on estimated historical habitat. …”

Impact of leadless pacemaker implantation site on cardiac synchronization and tricuspid regurgitation by Xiao-fei Gao, Hong Zhu, Jia-sheng Zhang, Ning-Zhang, Xiao-hong Pan, Yi-Zhou Xu

“…Intraoperative and 1-month post-operative echocardiography was performed to assess cardiac electromechanical synchronization and tricuspid regurgitation; parameters of interest included interventricular mechanical delay (IVMD), pre-ejection period of the aorta (L-PEI), and septal-to-posterior wall motion delay (SPWMD). Pacing thresholds, sensing, and impedance exhibited no significant differences between the 8/9 zone and other sites (P > 0.05). …”
