Researchers from the Northwest Institute of Eco-Environment and Resources of the Chinese Academy of Sciences have proposed a new method for high-precision soil moisture estimation using the technique of blind source separation (BSS).
A team of Chinese scientists, in collaboration with international researchers, has achieved a breakthrough in brain mapping, with ten seminal studies on mesoscale brain atlases published as a featured collection of papers in Cell Press journals on Thursday.
Indonesia's Bandung Institute of Technology, in cooperation with the Shanghai Astronomical Observatory affiliated with the Chinese Academy of Sciences, on Wednesday completed the main antenna installation for the country's first Very Long Baseline Interferometry (VLBI) Global Observing System (VGOS) radio telescope at the Bosscha Observatory in Bandung, West Java Province.
A team of Chinese geologists has created a Mars soil simulant that almost replicates Utopia Planitia soil, a scientific breakthrough that could be crucial for future explorations of the planet, including China's ambitious Mars sample-return mission.
Chinese researchers have identified a green sea turtle nesting site at Yongshu Reef, part of the Nansha Islands in the South China Sea, according to an ecological and environmental research station under the South China Sea Institute of Oceanology, Chinese Academy of Sciences.
