Evaluating sowing uniformity in hybrid rice using image processing and the OEW-YOLOv8n network by Zehua Li, Zehua Li, Yihui Pan, Xu Ma, Yongjun Lin, Xicheng Wang, Hongwei Li

“…This improvement can enhance the feature extraction ability of the Backbone network, as the new modules can fully utilize the information of all dimensions of the convolutional kernel. (2) An Efficient Channel Attention (ECA) module is added to the Neck for improving the network’s capability to extract deep semantic feature information of the detection target. (3) In the Bbox module of the prediction head, the Complete Intersection over Union (CIoU) loss function is replaced by the Weighted Intersection over Union version 3 (WIoUv3) loss function to improve the convergence speed of the bounding box loss function and reduce the convergence value of the loss function. …”

Turbulent heat flux dynamics along the Dotson and Getz ice-shelf fronts (Amundsen Sea, Antarctica) by B. Jacob, B. Y. Queste, M. D. du Plessis

“…We show that cold- and dry-air outbreaks from Antarctica enhance air–sea temperature and humidity gradients, triggering episodic heat loss events. The ocean heat loss is larger along the ice-shelf front, and it is also where the ERA5 turbulent heat flux exhibits the largest biases, underestimating the flux by up to 141 W m<span class="inline-formula">⁻²</span> due to its coarse resolution. …”

Array Coil Design and Experimental Verification for Separation of Tower Grounding Pulsed Eddy Current Excitation and Response Magnetic Field Signals by Zhiwu Zeng, Zheng Guo, Fan Gan, Yun Zuo, Xu Tian, Xinxun Wang, Zhichi Lin, Wanyi Zhu, Xiaotian Wang, Jingang Wang

“…Aiming at the problem that the primary and secondary magnetic fields of the traditional pulsed eddy current transmitting coil structure overlap, resulting in the loss of shallow information, this paper first discusses the loss of shallow information caused by the aliasing of the magnetic field under the non-zero current shutdown effect, and then analyzes the traditional weak magnetic field coupling separation principle, and proposes the array coil structure of this paper based on the magnetic field vector destructive separation principle. …”
