Atmospheres and science fiction [PDF]
This article proposes to read science fiction through the lens of atmosphere. Atmospheres, of course, have gained increased critical interest in recent years, most noticeably in Hans Ulrich Gumbrecht’s monograph Atmosphere, Mood, Stimmung, but also cognitivists like Peter Stockwell has discussed the use of atmosphere in literary studies.

Fumigant emission reductions with TIF warrant regulatory changes
With methyl bromide's phase-out, most growers have turned to alternative fumigants, particularly 1,3-dichloropropene (1,3-D) and chloropicrin. These alternatives are tightly regulated because they are classified as toxic air contaminants and volatile ...

Stochastic Super-Resolution for Downscaling Time-Evolving Atmospheric Fields With a Generative Adversarial Network [PDF]
Generative adversarial networks (GANs) have been recently adopted for super-resolution, an application closely related to what is referred to as “downscaling” in the atmospheric sciences: improving the spatial resolution of low-resolution images.
