At its core, microbiome research relies on complex and sophisticated statistical analyses of large datasets and their associated metadata (e.g., experimental parameters, sample characteristics). Heavy reliance on big data has presented new challenges in communicating the details of complex analyses in a manner sufficient for others to replicate analytical workflows. Reproducibility is a pillar ...

During explosive eruptions, airborne particles collide and stick together, accelerating the fallout of volcanic ash and climate-forcing aerosols. This aggregation process remains a major source of uncertainty both in ash dispersal forecasting and interpretation of eruptions from the geological record. Here we illuminate the mechanisms and timescales of particle aggregation from a well-character...

Given the uneven distribution of sounding and automatic weather stations throughout the Fujian province of China, a method for the extension of meteorological elements from point data to a three dimensional field is proposed, which can be used for hail detection and other weather forecasts. Considering the temperature and air pressure as the classic meteorological elements, these are extended t...
