How Thunderstorms Are Changing in Mexico: Trends and Characteristics
International Journal of Climatology, EarlyView.Thunderstorm days in Mexico have increased significantly since 1992, with pronounced regional and seasonal contrasts. Increasing moisture emerges as the most spatially coherent environmental signal. At the same time, enhanced instability characterizes northeastern and central Mexico, revealing distinct regional controls on thunderstorm activity and ...

IET Networks, EarlyView., 2022 Abstract 3D scanning is rapidly becoming a key maintenance tool. Aerospace was a pioneer in adopting 3D scanning technology because aircraft manufacture and maintenance require precision. Monitoring deterioration, removing components for maintenance, and verifying covert operations are not practical or helpful without technology.

Laser &Photonics Reviews, EarlyView.Room‐temperature lower‐polariton‐like lasing is realized in an InGaN/GaN thin‐film ridge cavity with lateral distributed Bragg reflectors. Near‐field optical microscopy distinguishes the transverse side‐DBR‐confined mode from a longitudinal photon‐like mode, while simulations reproduce their spatial profiles.

Measurements of Electric and Magnetic Fields due to Lightning Strokes Based on Single-station Detection [PDF]
, 2012 A simple technique to determine the distance of the lightning strikes using single- station detection is described. The technique is based on ratio of the magnetics field to the electric field generated by the lightning stroke.
