Kernel of Internet of Things:Internet of Data by Qi ZHANG, Hao YANG, Q.S.Quek Tony, Shi JIN, Hong-bo ZHU

“…The Internet of Things (IoT) is a collection of devices,sensors and computing capabilities that enable intelligent command and control across vast regions in an automated manner,where data is generated by large-scaled devices and often sent to a centralized system for processing.Therefore,for IoT scenarios,it is important to have an efficient way to collect data at low power,transmit them in very short time,process them in close to real time,and send back the results of this processing.The main data problems in IoT are investigated,and the data entities are organized to form a network,coined as the Internet of Data (IoD),which has huge potential in data-intensive applications.To better understand IoD,the basic concept and main challenges of IoD are also stated.Meanwhile,to provide more detailed understanding,some feasible techniques that can be used in IoD are also explored,like big data,data mining and artificial intelligence,which are all hot research areas and have been studied extensively in recent years.…”

Forest Ecosystem Carbon Measurement Methods and Future Directions by YUAN Yuna, JIANG Xuebing

“…The forest ecosystem is a crucial component of terrestrial ecosystems,possessing the largest carbon reservoir on the Earth's surface.The fluctuations in its carbon stocks have a profound impact on the global carbon cycle.In the current context of a growing greenhouse effect and the rising occurrence of extreme climates,accurately estimating carbon stocks in the forest ecosystem and strengthening the construction monitoring system for its carbon stocks holds great significance for gaining an in-depth understanding of the global carbon cycle and predicting global climate change.Oriented toward strengthening the carbon sink function of forest ecosystems and achieving the dual carbon target, this paper systematically explained the mechanism of carbon sequestration in forest ecosystems.It analyzed and compared several mainstream methods of forest carbon estimation, proposing feasible strategies for building a forest carbon stock monitoring system in China.The aim is to provide a theoretical reference for the stable improvement of China's forest ecosystem carbon stock monitoring capacity and to provide scientific support for achieving the carbon peak and carbon neutrality in a timely manner.…”
