An Improved IASI Temperature and Humidity Retrieval Method Based on Double Channel Differences
Abstract Due to surface emissivity, the retrieval accuracy of hyperspectral infrared temperature and humidity profiles is typically poor in the lower atmosphere. To solve this problem, we use the double channel differences method (DCDM) to retrieve the temperature and humidity profiles of the Infrared Atmospheric Sounding Interferometer (IASI) with ...

Estimating Spectral Effects of Absorbing Aerosols on Backscattered UV Radiation
Abstract We examine the spectral effects of tropospheric absorbing aerosol types on backscattered UV radiation from 300 to 400 nm. First, using satellite observations, we show a non‐linear spectral dependence below 340 nm for scenes with significant aerosol absorption.

Abstract Extreme precipitation events may cause flooding, slope failure, erosion, deposition, and damage to infrastructure over a regional scale, but the impacts of these events are often difficult to fully characterize. Regional‐scale landscape change occurred during an extreme rain event in June 2012 in northeastern Minnesota.

Craton Destruction Induced by Drastic Drops in Lithospheric Mantle Viscosity
Abstract The disruption of the mantle roots of cratons is common after cratonization. Craton destruction, which is characterized by severe lithospheric thinning, extensive thrust and extensional deformation, basin filling, and intense thermal activities, is relatively rare and is generally attributed to intensely reduced viscosity contrasts between the

Visualization in astrophysics [PDF]
This paper reports on progress we have made in modelling cosmic X·ray sources on supercomputers. The results we present are meant to serve as an example for the fact that sophisticated visualization techniques play a crucial role in scientific computing.

Abstract The boundary between the Northern Andean block and the South American plate is a first‐order tectonic structure in Colombia with historically M > 7 earthquakes. However, details about individual sections of the system remain unknown. We illuminate the seismotectonic of the Algeciras fault by investigating an earthquake sequence that started on
