Towards gridded nighttime aerosol optical thickness retrievals using VIIRS day–night band observations over regions with artificial light sources [PDF]
Atmospheric Measurement TechniquesUsing observations from the Visible Infrared Imaging Radiometer Suite (VIIRS) day–night band (DNB), we examined the feasibility of developing a gridded nighttime aerosol optical thickness (AOT) data set based on the spatial derivative of measured top-of ...

Extraordinary behavioral entrainment following circadian rhythm bifurcation in mice. [PDF]
, 2016 The mammalian circadian timing system uses light to synchronize endogenously generated rhythms with the environmental day. Entrainment to schedules that deviate significantly from 24 h (T24) has been viewed as unlikely because the circadian pacemaker ...
