Monte Carlo Simulation of 3D Cloud Radiance Distributions Affected by Ground‐Based Lighting
Journal of Geophysical Research: Atmospheres, Volume 131, Issue 6, 28 March 2026.Abstract Satellite observations of artificial light sources at night are increasing. Clouds, as the most important radiative modulators in the Earth‐atmosphere system, significantly influence the observed values and spatial distribution of the artificial light coming from the ground.

Space Weather, Volume 24, Issue 3, March 2026.Abstract A simulation of the 10 May 2024 geomagnetic storm is used to investigate the theory of cross polar cap potential (CPCP) saturation in Earth's magnetosphere‐ionosphere system. THEMIS B (ARTEMIS P1) satellite magnetic field and plasma measurements at lunar distance upstream in the solar wind drives the Space Weather Modeling Framework (SWMF) in ...

Tracking Electrification in Vietnam Using Nighttime Lights
Remote Sensing, 2014 We report on a systematic ground-based validation of DMSP-OLS night lights imagery to detect rural electrification in Vietnam. Based on an original survey of village-level units in Vietnam, this study compares nighttime light output from the U.S.

The Impact of Extreme Weather Shocks on Local Economic Activity in Taiwan and the Philippines
Pacific Economic Review, Volume 31, Issue 1, Page 83-104, February 2026.ABSTRACT Changes in weather and climate have inspired researchers to re‐examine the relationship between meteorological events and the economy. The increasing occurrence of violent storms has had significant impacts on life and property, especially in typhoon‐prone countries.

Colonial origins of agglomeration: Evidence from Malayan rail stations
The Economic History Review, Volume 79, Issue 1, Page 221-246, February 2026.Abstract This study examines how historical rail stations condition long‐run development using Colonial Malaya as a laboratory. By constructing novel historical data on rail stations, agglomeration centres, tin mines, and rubber plantations dating back a century and matching contemporary data on economic activity at the 1‐km cell level, we find that ...

Food and Energy Security, Volume 15, Issue 1, January/February 2026.ABSTRACT The acceleration of urbanization and its resultant expansion of urban sprawl (US) have significantly reshaped agricultural supply chain resilience (ASCR). In this study, we focused on the effects of US and the induction of imbalances in resource allocation.
