The taxonomic, functional and phylogenetic diversity of birds in Xiaohongxiang Wetland, southwest China
Small wetlands are essential for preserving global biodiversity, yet they are frequently neglected in conservation strategies due to vague definitions and a lack of research attention.In this study, we conducted thirty-six surveys via the point count method in the Xiaohongxiang Wetland, Anning City, Yunnan Province, China, from November 2023 to Jun
URBAN FUNCTIONAL ZONE IDENTIFICATION BY CONSIDERING THE HETEROGENEOUS DISTRIBUTION OF POINTS OF INTERESTS
Urban Functional Zone (UFZ) identification facilitates the understanding of urban systems, which are complex and huge, and helps promote sustainable urban development.Existing studies on UFZ identification with Points of Interests (POIs) have focused much on more accurately extracting functional semantics, but ignored the fine delineation of UFZs i
Dark blood cardiovascular magnetic resonance of the heart, great vessels, and lungs using electrocardiographic-gated three-dimensional unbalanced steady-state free precession
Abstract Background Recently, we reported a novel neuroimaging technique, unbalanced T1 Relaxation-Enhanced Steady-State (uT1RESS), which uses a tailored 3D unbalanced steady-state free precession (3D uSSFP) acquisition to suppress the blood pool signal while minimizing bulk motion sensitivity.In the present work, we hypothesized that 3D uSSFP migh
