Late Holocene moisture variability in Arctic Alaska from chitin δ18O

open access: yesBoreas, EarlyView.
Amplified warming in the Arctic has resulted in reduced sea‐ice extent, which can impact regional climate dynamics. Elucidating past moisture variability in response to changing temperatures and sea‐ice conditions can offer insight into how anthropogenic climate change may impact Arctic areas such as the Alaskan North Slope in the future. We contribute

Droughts and human impact in the ancient Uaymil region of the Maya lowlands inferred from a 2800‐year sedimentary archive at Lake Kaná, Mexico

open access: yesBoreas, EarlyView.
The relationship between the climate and societal transformation in Maya lowlands has long been debated, particularly the role of drought in shaping the civilization trajectory during the Classic Period. A high‐resolution, multi‐proxy, geochemical record from Lake Kaná, located in the underexplored Uaymil region of the Yucatán Peninsula in Mexico ...

Physical and dynamical studies of meteors. Meteor-fragmentation and stream-distribution studies [PDF]

open access: yes
Population parameters of 275 streams including 20 additional streams in the synoptic-year sample were found by a computer technique. Some 16 percent of the sample is in these streams.

Comet and Meteorite Traditions of Aboriginal Australians

open access: yes, 2014
Of the hundreds of distinct Aboriginal cultures of Australia, many have oral traditions rich in descriptions and explanations of comets, meteors, meteorites, airbursts, impact events, and impact craters. These views generally attribute these phenomena to

Story2Board: A Training‐Free Approach for Expressive Visual Storytelling

open access: yesComputer Graphics Forum, EarlyView.
Abstract We present Story2Board, a training‐free framework for expressive storyboard generation from natural language. Existing methods narrowly focus on subject identity, overlooking key aspects of visual storytelling such as spatial composition, background evolution, and narrative pacing.

Observations of meteor-head echoes using the Jicamarca 50MHz radar in interferometer mode [PDF]

open access: yesAtmospheric Chemistry and Physics, 2004
We present results of recent observations of meteor-head echoes obtained with the high-power large-aperture Jicamarca 50MHz radar (11.95°S, 76.87°W) in an interferometric mode.

Authoring Terrestrial Planets with Diffusion Models

open access: yesComputer Graphics Forum, EarlyView.
Abstract To support the design and subsequent generation of terrestrial planets for use in the creative media, we propose a solution that employs a generative model trained on satellite data from planetary bodies with a defined solid surface, such as the Earth and Mars.

Meteoritics and cosmology among the Aboriginal cultures of Central Australia

open access: yes, 2011
The night sky played an important role in the social structure, oral traditions, and cosmology of the Arrernte and Luritja Aboriginal cultures of Central Australia. A component of this cosmology relates to meteors, meteorites, and impact craters.

Choice Feminism and the Opt‐Out Phenomenon: Is It Possible to Speak of Free Will?

open access: yesGender, Work &Organization, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT The aim of this research was to question choice feminism in the light of the opt‐out phenomenon, through a thematic narrative analysis of the professional trajectories of five Brazilian women with university degrees. As a result of the research—and the main contribution to the advancement of knowledge in the field—it was found that although ...

Technical Possibilities and Limitations of the DPS-4D Type of Digisonde in Individual Meteor Detections

open access: yesRemote Sensing
During the peak days of the 2019 Leonids and Geminids (16–19 November and 10–16 December), two ionograms/minute and one Skymap/minute campaign measurements were carried out at the Sopron (47.63°N, 16.72°E) and Průhonice (50.00°N, 14.60°E) Digisonde ...
