Threat of low-frequency high-intensity floods to global cropland and crop yields
Flood hazards pose a significant threat to agricultural production. Agricultural adaptations tend to be prevalent and systematic in high-frequency flood (HFF) areas but neglected in low-frequency flood (LFF) a...

Point Cloud Rendering via Multi-plane NeRF
We propose a new neural point cloud rendering method by combining point cloud multi-plane projection and NeRF [12]. Existing point-based rendering methods often rely on the high-quality geometry of point clouds. ...

A “pulse-stairstep” longitudinal pattern of larval fish assemblages in a channelized floodplain river downstream of a dam: dominant influences of major tributaries with a “confluence refuge concept”
We investigated larval fish assemblages in the Yangtze River downstream of the Three Gorges Dam to test the influence of tributary inputs on the longitudinal recovery pattern of the assemblages from negative i...
