Special Section Guest Editorial: Remote Sensing for Investigating the Coupled Biogeophysical and Biogeochemical Process of Harmful Algal Blooms

Special Section Guest Editorial

In recent years there has been a strong trend to enhance traditional research techniques in neuroscience with opticalbased techniques. The trend is evident on every level of neuroscience research, spatially spanning submicron to centimeters and temporally spanning submillisecond to seconds. Optical techniques are attractive because they enable researchers to study brain function from the smalle...

Editorial on the Special Issue “Harmful Algal Blooms (HABs) and Public Health: Progress and Current Challenges”

Harmful Algal Blooms (HABs) affect the quality of fresh and marine waters and adversely affect both animals and humans. Public health risks include exposure to toxins through consumption of contaminated drinking water and fish and shellfish, and by recreating on or in contaminated waters. Federal and State professionals and researchers contributed to this Special Issue on HABs and Public Health...

Special section guest editorial: Photons plus ultrasound: imaging and sensing.

m: http://biomedicaloptics.spiedigitallibrary.org/ on 05/11/2016 Terms of Use Fig. 1 . As of 2009, this conference has become the largest at SPIE Photonics West. Hybrid modalities such as photoacoustic or optoacoustic tomography can provide deep tissue penetration, high ultrasonic resolution, and speckle-free optical contrast. Applications include in vivo functional and molecular imaging of can...

Guest Editorial: Special Section on Process Imaging for Automatic Control

Industry has traditionally relied upon point sensors such as thermocouples and pressure gauges to control its operations, but as manufacturing processes become increasingly complex, additional types of information are required. For example, typical process measurement needs now include contamination detection, particulate size and shape, concentration/density profile (in pipes and tanks), and t...
