Abstract Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS)‐based radio occultation (RO) is a satellite remote sensing technique providing accurate profiles of the Earth's atmosphere for weather and climate applications. Above about 30 km altitude, however, statistical optimization critical process initializing RO bending angles in order to optimize monitoring utility retrieved atmospheric profiles. Here we introduce an advanced dynamic algorithm, which uses from multiple days European Centre...
The assumption that drug repurposing efficiently delivers new drugs ignores the realities of development required to achieve regulatory approval.
Abstract Geomagnetically induced currents (GICs) caused by interplanetary shocks represent a serious space weather threat to modern technological infrastructure. The arrival of drives magnetosphere and ionosphere current systems, which then induce electric at ground level. impact these high latitudes has been extensively researched, but the magnetic equator largely overlooked. In this paper, we investigate potential effects on equatorial region demonstrate that their signature is amplified...

Abstract We report our analysis of ionospheric disturbances from the 15 January 2022 Tonga volcano eruption, using GPS data International GNSS Service network and ionosonde in Australian sector. Wave fluctuations with amplitudes ∼1 TECU altitude variations ∼100 km were observed data, respectively. In near‐field region around shortly after reveals that had an azimuthally anisotropic velocity profile, a peculiar minimum southwestward direction. Close resemblance is identified between profile...
For patients with advanced non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC), dual immune checkpoint blockade (ICB) CTLA4 inhibitors and PD-1 or PD-L1 (hereafter, PD-(L)1 inhibitors) is associated higher rates of anti-tumour activity immune-related toxicities, when compared treatment alone. However, there are currently no validated biomarkers to identify which will benefit from ICB1,2. Here we show that NSCLC who have mutations in the STK11 and/or KEAP1 tumour suppressor genes derived clinical ICB...
Abstract The technique of radio occultation (RO) is demonstrated to be a powerful tool for studying equatorial F‐region irregularities (EFIs) associated with plasma bubbles. extensive 4.9 year RO dataset the Constellation Observing System Meteorology, Ionosphere and Climate (COSMIC) satellites was employed in this study contains EFI observations under wide variety solar geomagnetic conditions. From an analysis occurrence dependence on season/longitude, it found that statistics largely match...
Abstract Presented is an analysis of the occurrence postsunset Equatorial Plasma Bubbles (EPBs) detected using a Global Positioning System (GPS) receiver at Vanimo. The three year data set shows that EPB maximizes (minimizes) during equinoxes (solstices), in good agreement with previous findings. Vanimo ionosonde station used GPS day‐to‐day variability 2000 equinox period. A superposed epoch (SEA) reveals altitude, and change F layer height ∼1 standard deviation (1 σ ) larger on days for...
Abstract The occurrence of geomagnetically induced currents (GICs) poses serious threats to modern technological infrastructure. Large GICs result from sharp variations the geomagnetic field (d B /d t ) caused by changes large‐scale magnetospheric and ionospheric currents. Intense d perturbations are known occur often in high‐latitude regions as a storm time substorms. Magnetospheric compressions usually interplanetary shocks increase magnetopause current leading more evident midlatitude...
Abstract Geomagnetically induced currents (GICs) represent a significant space weather issue for power grid and pipeline infrastructure, particularly during severe geomagnetic storms. In this study, magnetometer data collected from around the world are analyzed to investigate GICs caused by 2015 St. Patrick's Day storm. While GIC activity in high‐latitude regions due storm time substorm is shown event, enhanced was also measured at two equatorial stations American Southeast Asian sectors....
Abstract Describing the day‐to‐day variability of Equatorial Plasma Bubble (EPB) occurrence remains a significant challenge.
