arXiv:2604. 10094v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Anthropogenic methane (CH4) point sources are critical drivers of near-term climate forcing, safety hazards, and system-inefficiencies.

arXiv:2512. 23234v3 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Infrared gas leak detection is important for industrial safety and environmental monitoring, but automatic detection remains challenging because gas plumes are often faint, small, semi-transparent, and weakly bounded.

arXiv:2607. 18504v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Benchmarks for Geospatial Foundation Models (GFMs) increasingly rank models by aggregate score, but such rankings obscure why models differ: how much of the gap is architecture, how much is decoder capacity, and how much is a use-case-specific artefact?

arXiv:2606. 27515v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Accurate prediction of bottom-hole pressure (BHP) and CO2 plume migration is essential for safe geological carbon storage, yet practical simulations often rely on truncated domains where artificial boundaries distort pressure diffusion and CO2 saturation footprints.

arXiv:2602. 00343v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Federated learning (FL) enables collaborative model training over privacy-sensitive, distributed data, but its environmental impact is difficult to compare across studies due to inconsistent measurement boundaries and heterogeneous reporting.

arXiv:2606. 26194v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Urban tree biomass remains less spatially explicitly quantified than biomass in managed forests because many estimates rely on inventories or coarse products that cannot resolve individual crowns or fine-scale heterogeneity.
