An emerging ground-based aerosol climatology: Aerosol optical depth from AERONET [PDF]
Long-term measurements by the AERONET program of spectral aerosol optical depth, precipitable water, and derived Angstrom exponent were analyzed and compiled into an aerosol optical properties climatology. Quality assured monthly means are presented and described for 9 primary sites and 21 additional multiyear sites with distinct aerosol regimes ...

Cloud optical depth retrievals from the Aerosol Robotic Network (AERONET) cloud mode observations [PDF]
Cloud optical depth is one of the most poorly observed climate variables. The new “cloud mode” capability in the Aerosol Robotic Network (AERONET) will inexpensively yet dramatically increase cloud optical depth observations in both number and accuracy ...

Spatiotemporal modeling of irregularly spaced aerosol optical depth data [PDF]
Many advancements have been introduced to tackle spatial and temporal structures in data. When the spatial and/or temporal domains are relatively large, assumptions must be made to account for the sheer size of the data. The large data size, coupled with realities that come with observational data, make it difficult for all of these assumptions to be ...

Aerosol optical depth in the Canadian arctic [PDF]
Abstract The aerosol optical depth was calculated for Resolute, Alert, Inuvik, Baker Lake and Frobisher Bay for the period from January 1978 to December 1980 making use of solar irradiance data from the Canadian Atmospheric Environment Service network.

Exploring the links between Large Igneous Provinces and dramatic environmental impact
An emerging consensus suggests that Large Igneous Provinces (LIPs) and Silicic LIPs (SLIPs) are a significant driver of dramatic global environmental and biological changes, including mass extinctions.

Atomic Layer Deposition in Transistors and Monolithic 3D Integration
Transistors are fundamental building blocks of modern electronics. This review summarizes recent progress in atomic layer deposition (ALD) for the synthesis of two‐dimensional (2D) metal oxides and transition‐metal dichalcogenides (TMDCs), with particular emphasis on their enabling role in monolithic three‐dimensional (M3D) integration for next ...
