An investigation on the wind profiles and gravity wave dynamics in MLT region based on the meteor radars from the Meridian Project by Tai Liu, Zhe Wang, MengXi Shi, Willie Soon, ShiCan Qiu

“…The horizontal wind velocity, GW flux, and disturbance variance of the GW at Mohe are overall smaller than those at Zuoling, indicating weaker activities in the MLT at Mohe. The power spectral density (PSD) calculated by the Lomb−Scargle periodogram shows that there are 12-month period and 6-month period in horizontal wind field, GW disturbance variance and GW flux at both stations, and especially there is also a 4-month cycle in the disturbance variance. …”

Analysis of the spatial pattern and causes of ecological environmental quality in Myanmar based on the RSEI model and the Geodetector-GCCM method by Shuangfu Shi, Shuangfu Shi, Shuangyun Peng, Shuangyun Peng, Zhiqiang Lin, Zhiqiang Lin, Bangmei Huang, Dongling Ma, Dongling Ma, Ziyi Zhu, Ziyi Zhu, Yilin Zhu, Yilin Zhu, Rui Zhang, Ting Li

“…The results indicate that: (1) Myanmar’s overall EEQ was relatively good, but there is significant spatial heterogeneity; (2) Local spatial autocorrelation analysis revealed a clear spatial clustering pattern of EEQ in Myanmar; (3) Geodetector analysis identified DEM, slope, Net Primary Productivity (NPP), land use, and human footprint as the dominant factors influencing EEQ, with significant interactions among these factors; (4) GCCM analysis further verified the significant causal effects of DEM, slope, NPP, and human footprint on EEQ, while the causal effects of temperature, precipitation, and land use are relatively weaker. This study established a technical framework for analyzing the spatial differentiation and causes of EEQ, unveiling the mechanisms of ecological evolution driven by natural and human factors. …”

Associations between dry eye disease and sleep quality: a cross-sectional analysis by Anat Galor, Kimberly Cabrera, Mohammad Ayoubi, Elyana Vittoria Tessa Locatelli, Simran Mangwani-Mordani

“…For DE signs, ocular surface inflammation and meibum quality remained associated with subjective sleep quality (r=0.26, p=0.01; r=0.46, p<0.0005, respectively).Conclusion DE symptom and ocular pain intensity were closely related to sleep metrics, most strongly to sleep disturbances. Relationships were weaker for DE signs, with subjective sleep quality relating to inflammation and meibum quality.…”
