Over 400,000 downloads. A significant global scientific debate.
Our 2022 paper in Remote Sensing (MDPI, Impact Factor 4.3) has been retracted.
Paper: https://t.co/oCuDwYaSZ6
The official reason is that an anonymous reader raised concerns, leading to an investigation that identified “serious methodological flaws and statistical errors.”
We respectfully request that these specific methodological flaws and statistical errors be clearly identified and documented. Our analytical model does not rely on statistical inference. The results are obtained through the direct inversion of a straightforward Doppler tomographic model.
The sister paper on volcanic structures — same journal, same technique, same year — remains online:

That work involved scientific collaboration with the Italian CNR and was developed in support of communities living near Vesuvius.
If the underlying method is considered flawed, consistency would suggest that the same standard should be applied to both papers.
We therefore make an open and respectful request to the Editors of Remote Sensing:
Dr. Prasad S. Thenkabail
https://t.co/QRErUEGPsF
Prof. Dr. Dongdong Wang
https://t.co/jLlJ5hs6CT
Dr. Richard Gloaguen
https://t.co/8zRCOehpUU
Dr. Francesca Ardizzone
https://t.co/lhPxx1ie8d
We ask that the same standard be applied and that the Vesuvius paper also be considered for retraction.
When new observations challenge established frameworks, the most constructive scientific response is transparent examination and clear documentation of the issues identified.
We do not claim infallibility.
We simply ask for the transparency and consistency that science, at its best, requires.
Veritas odium parit.
E pur si muove.
Magna est veritas et praevalebit.
Maiori forsan cum timore sententiam in me fertis quam ego accipiam.
Fiat lux.

We see you. Madonna Ariana Grande Katyperry Britney Spears Rihanna Beyonce's You sick fuc#@kers. So sick of this shit. Fighting back. You know what they did to get where they are??? Well NOW you do.
This is definitely a prosthetic silicone mask poorly done, they did not seal the edges as you can see it’s lifting near neck where most movements happened.
Bob Dylan admits to selling his soul to the devil for fame and riches.
This right here is the face of a man who knows what he did, understands why he did what he did, understands the consequences for what he did, but yet regrets what he did.
Some people still try to deny and find other explanations for what selling your soul means, when the man, plain as day is telling us all what it is all day long.
You can see the regret in his eyes. It ain’t worth it.. at all.
