In the Arctic region, the navigation and positioning accuracy of shipborne and autonomous underwater vehicle (AUV) integrated Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) and Inertial Navigation System (INS) solutions is severely degraded due to poor satellite geometry, frequent ionospheric disturbances, non-Gaussian measurement noise, and strong multipath effects, as well as long-term INS-based dead-reckoning for AUVs when GNSS...

The Laizhou Bay area in China harbors a significant amount of Quaternary brine resources, which have been gradually depleted due to intensive long-term exploitation. It is widely accepted that underground Quaternary brine in Laizhou Bay originates from seawater. However, there are disputes regarding the specific form of seawater concentration and the geological processes leading to brine formation. Revealing the genesis of sha...
