DOI: 10.1002/ece3.9004
Abstract: Abstract Our planet hosts a variety of highly diverse ecosystems. The persistence of high diversity is generally attributed to factors such as the structure of interactions among species and the dispersal of species in metacommunities.… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.optcom.2018.04.014
Abstract: Abstract We report on experiments where spatially partially coherent laser beams with flat top intensity profiles were propagated underwater. Two scenarios were explored: still water and mechanically moved entrained salt scatterers. Gaussian, fully spatially coherent… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.optcom.2021.127511
Abstract: Abstract We demonstrate analytically and numerically that the transverse spatial coherence (the spectral degree of coherence) of the field radiated by two partially correlated electromagnetic sources oscillates as a function of propagation distance in free… read more here.

DOI: 10.1063/5.0046288
Abstract: We examine the effect of spatial coherence on the image quality of a classic 4f imaging system when its Fourier plane is partially blocked by an opaque obstacle. We find that although reducing the degree… read more here.

DOI: 10.1088/1674-1056/abd766
Abstract: Owing to the unique feature that the signal and reference waves of self-interference digital holography (SIDH) contain the same spatial information from the same point of object, compared with conventional digital holography, the SIDH has… read more here.

DOI: 10.1088/1748-9326/acd655
Abstract: How climate change will affect spatial coherence of droughts is a key question that water managers must answer in order to adopt strategies to mitigate impacts on water resources. Water transfers from regions with excess… read more here.

DOI: 10.1103/physreva.101.043839
Abstract: It is known that a spatially partially coherent light field produces better imaging contrast compared to a spatially coherent field and that the contrast increases as the spatial coherence length of the field becomes smaller.… read more here.

DOI: 10.1126/sciadv.1700133
Abstract: Surface plasmon polaritons can make incoherent light coherent and vice versa. The degree of optical spatial coherence—a fundamental property of light that describes the mutual correlations between fluctuating electromagnetic fields—has been proven challenging to control… read more here.

Abstract: Despite the fact that incandescent sources are usually spatially incoherent, it has been known for some time that a proper design of a thermal source can modify its spatial coherence. A natural question is whether… read more here.
