Model variograms describe the space domain statistics of magnetic and gravity data. Variogram analysis can be used to map intensity, depth, and scaling exponent (self‐correlation) of source. In previous statistical methods the measured data were gridded and transformed to the wavenumber domain; then their power spectrum was analyzed using a spectral model. To avoid the loss and distortion of information during gridding and wavenumber domain transform, I transform the spectral model to the space domain instead. Variograms are the appropriate space domain counterparts of magnetic and gravity power spectra. The variogram of the field above a self‐similar half‐space model is governed by three parameters: intensity, depth, and scaling exponent. These source parameters can be mapped with high resolution and accuracy by fitting model variograms directly to magnetic and gravity line data variograms.

Performed in this work are complex statistical, fractal and singular analyses of phase properties inherent to birefringence networks of protein crystals consisting of optically-thin layers prepared from blood plasma. Within the framework of a statistical approach, the authors have investigated values and ranges for changes of statistical moments of the first to the fourth orders that characterize coordinate distributions for phase shifts between orthogonal components of amplitudes inherent to laser radiation transformed by blood plasma with various pathologies. In the framework of the fractal approach, determined are the dimensions of self-similar coordinate phase distributions as well as features of transformation of logarithmic dependences for power spectra of these distributions for various types of hominal mammary gland pathologies.

We present a 3D inversion method to recover density distribution from gravity data in space domain. Our method firstly employs 3D correlation image of the vertical gradient of gravity data as a starting model to generate a higher resolution image for inversion. The 3D density distribution is then obtained by inverting the correlation image of gravity data to fit the observed data based on classical inversion method of the steepest descent method. We also perform the effective equivalent storage and subdomain techniques in the starting model calculation, the forward modeling and the inversion procedures, which allow fast computation in space domain with reducing memory consumption but maintaining accuracy. The efficiency and stability of our method is demonstrated on two sets of synthetic data and one set of the Northern Sinai Peninsula gravity data. The inverted 3D density distributions show that high density bodies beneath Risan Aniza and low density bodies exist to the southeast of Risan Aniza at depths between 1~10 and 20 km, which may be originated from hot anomalies in the lower crust. The results show that our inversion method is useful for 3D quantitative interpretation.

We investigate how compressibility affects the turbulent statistics from a Lagrangian point of view, particularly in the parameter range where the flow transits from the incompressible type to a state dominated by shocklets. A series of three-dimensional simulations were conducted for different types of driving and several Mach numbers. For purely solenoidal driving, as the Mach number increases a new self-similar region first emerges in the Lagrangian structure functions at sub-Kolmogorov time scale and gradually extends to larger time scale. In this region the relative scaling exponent saturates and the saturated value decreases as the compressibility becomes stronger, which can be attributed to the shocklets. The scaling exponent for the inertial range is still very close to that of incompressible turbulence for small Mach number, and discrepancy becomes visible when the Mach number is high enough. When the driving force is dominated by the compressive component the shocklet-induced self-similar region occupies a much wider range of time scales than that in the purely solenoidal driving case. Regardless of the type of driving force, the probability density functions of the velocity increment collapse onto one another for the time scales in the new self-similar region after proper normalization.

We present the results of direct numerical simulations of power spectral densities for kinetic energy, convective entropy, and heat flux for unsteady Rayleigh–Bénard magnetoconvection in the frequency space. For larger values of frequency, the power spectral densities for all the global quantities vary with frequency (f) as f−2. The scaling exponent is independent of Rayleigh number, Chandrasekhar’s number, and thermal Prandtl number.

Various disease conditions can alter EEG event-related responses and fMRI-BOLD signals. We hypothesized that event-related responses and their clinical alterations are imprinted in the EEG spectral domain as event-related (spatio)spectral patterns (ERSPat). We tested four EEG-fMRI fusion models utilizing EEG power spectra fluctuations (i.e., absolute spectral model - ASM; relative spectral model - RSM; absolute spatiospectral model - ASSM; and relative spatiospectral model - RSSM) for fully automated and blind visualization of task-related neural networks. Two (spatio)spectral patterns (high δ4 band and low β1 band) demonstrated significant negative linear relationship (pFWE < 0.05) to the frequent stimulus and three patterns (two low δ2 and δ3 bands, and narrow θ1 band) demonstrated significant positive relationship (p < 0.05) to the target stimulus. These patterns were identified as ERSPats. EEG-fMRI F-map of each δ4 model showed strong engagement of insula, cuneus, precuneus, basal ganglia, sensory-motor, motor and dorsal part of fronto-parietal control (FPCN) networks with fast HRF peak and noticeable trough. ASM and RSSM emphasized spatial statistics, and the relative power amplified the relationship to the frequent stimulus. For the δ4 model, we detected a reduced HRF peak amplitude and a magnified HRF trough amplitude in the frontal part of the FPCN, default mode network (DMN) and in the frontal white matter. The frequent-related β1 patterns visualized less significant and distinct suprathreshold spatial associations. Each θ1 model showed strong involvement of lateralized left-sided sensory-motor and motor networks with simultaneous basal ganglia co-activations and reduced HRF peak and amplified HRF trough in the frontal part of the FPCN and DMN. The ASM θ1 model preserved target-related EEG-fMRI associations in the dorsal part of the FPCN. For δ4, β1, and θ1 bands, all models provided high local F-statistics in expected regions. The most robust EEG-fMRI associations were observed for ASM and RSSM.

The blastocoel is a fluid-filled cavity characterizing early embryos at blastula stage. It is commonly described as the result of cell division patterning, but in tightly compacted embryos the mechanism underlying its emergence remains unclear. Based on experimental observations, we discuss an alternative physical model by which a single cavity forms by growth and coarsening of myriad of micrometric lumens interconnected through the intercellular space. Considering explicitly ion and fluid exchanges, we find that cavity formation is primarily controlled by hydraulic fluxes, with a minor influence of osmotic heterogeneities on the dynamics. Performing extensive numerical simulations on 1-dimensional chains of lumens, we show that coarsening is self-similar with a dynamic scaling exponent reminiscent of dewetting films over a large range of ion and water permeability values. Adding active pumping of ions to account for lumen growth largely enriches the dynamics: it prevents from collective collapse and leads to the emergence of a novel coalescence-dominated regime exhibiting a distinct scaling law. Finally, we prove that a spatial bias in pumping may be sufficient to position the final cavity, delineating hence a novel mode of symmetry breaking for tissue patterning. Providing generic testable predictions our hydro-osmotic coarsening theory highlights the essential roles of hydraulic and osmotic flows in development, with expected applications in early embryogenesis and lumenogenesis.
