This article reports the formation of resonance cavities within graded photonic super-crystals (GPSCs) with unit cells formed via a near-uniform central region with eight side graded regions.

Report from a workshop on ecological responses of Venezuelan savannas to global climate change.

This article presents highly efficient reflective cross polarization converters based on metamaterials operating in the infrared regime.

This article provides a review of the state of the art focused on the development of biosensors and chemosensors based on extended-gate field-effect transistor within the field of bioanalytical applications.

Authors discuss their use of a distributed and decentralized architecture to store the statistics, perform double hashing, and implement access control through smart contracts to forecast groundwater availability. Their work demonstrates a modern and innovative approach combining Distributed Data Storage and Blockchain technologies to overcome traditional data sharing, and centralized storage, while addressing blockchain limitations.

Article describes how this study presents a systematic design of an optimized drive signal control system for 2.5 GHz Doherty power amplifiers (DPAs). In this manuscript, the authors analyzed and compared the PAE of the DPA and parallel-connected PA for diverse input signals generated using a designed optimized control system

This report discusses a PAN-EARTH / Fondo Nacional de Investigaciones Agropecuarias (FONAIAP) Workshop on Crop Model Training and Calibration.

Article describes how Aerosol Optical Depth (AOD)is a crucial atmospheric parameter in comprehending climate change, air quality, and its impacts on human health. This study presents a new solution to this challenge by providing a long-term, gapless satellite-derived AOD dataset for Texas from 2010 to 2022, utilizing Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) multi-angle implementation of atmospheric correction (MAIAC) products.

Report on a Modeling Crop and Climate Change workshop. The objectives of the workshop were: 1) train Venezuelan scientists in the use of agricultural models IBSNAT program (International Benchmark Sites Network for Agrotechnology Transfer), including discussions about their applicability and the acquisition of knowledge about the data needed for proper simulation and validation, 2) Calibrate the model of maize (CERES) for different cultivars and different regions of Venezuela using data from soil and climate corresponding to various tests, 3) Carry out model simulations under various climate scenarios to assess their potential effects on crops, 4) To strengthen the cooperation between users of IBSNAT models to make necessary tests to get a better database application thus facilitating validation and calibration of these models, and 5) To establish plans for future agricultural and meteorological research in the context of global climate change.
