Night and Light Nocturnal Tourism

2023
In this chapter we deal with daily time cycles in relation to tourism, in particular differentiating the temporal variations between day-time and night-time. The day is the time normally considered for action and the night for sleep, or at least for rest. Therefore tourism activity is usually concentrated during day-time.

Light at Night and Cancer Risk¶

Photochemistry and Photobiology, 2004
Environmental lighting powerfully suppresses the physiologic release of melatonin, which typically peaks in the middle of the night. This decreased melatonin production has been hypothesized to increase the risk of cancer. Evidence from experimental studies supports a link between melatonin and tumor growth.

Lights in the night

IEEE Instrumentation & Measurement Magazine, 2005
The paper discusses about the author's experiment with the power transmission lines and a couple of bulbs in a moonless night. The bulbs will lit up as he walked under a power line since current was flowing through his body because he was short circuiting part of the electric field established between the lines and the ground at his feet.

Myopia and ambient lighting at night

Nature, 1999
Myopia, or short-sightedness, occurs when the image of distant objects, focused by the cornea and lens, falls in front of the retina. It commonly arises from excessive postnatal eye growth, particularly in the vitreous cavity. Its prevalence is increasing and now reaches 70-90% in some Asian populations1,2.

From Night to Light to Night

Mnemosyne
Abstract This article argues that the ring composition in Parmenides’ proem (DK28B1) forms a previously overlooked argument in favour of katabasis within the blurred-topography interpretation, since the ring composition mirrors the circular journey of the daughters of the Sun, who travel from the House of Night, pick up the kouros in ...

Lighting the night

We delved into the connections between TOA reflectance from VIIRS DNB during the day and night. A theoretical framework, backed by simulations, indicated the strong correlation between solar and lunar irradiance within the VIIRS DNB spectrum. This correlation paved the way for a machine learning model — specifically, multilayer perception — to link day
