Cosmic ray density gradient and its dependence on the north-south asymmetry in solar activity [PDF]
An analysis of the diurnal anisotropy on geomagnetically quiet days was performed using neutron monitor data at Deep River, Leeds, Rome and Tokyo, well distributed in latitude and longitude for the period 1964-79. The days were separated according to the

Unusual Polar Conditions in Solar Cycle 24 and their Implications for Cycle 25
We report on the prolonged solar-maximum conditions until late 2015 at the north-polar region of the Sun indicated by the occurrence of high-latitude prominence eruptions and microwave brightness temperature close to the quiet Sun level.

Do Consumers Value Diversity in Agriculture? A Choice Experiment
ABSTRACT Farm ownership in the US today is racially and ethnically homogeneous. Diverse farmers and ranchers make up less than 10% of all producers, they tend to be less financially stable and have tighter profit margins. In the past few years, both government and industry programs have aimed to increase the participation and profitability of diverse ...

Climate and Industrial Policy in an Asymmetric World [PDF]
Climate change is a phenomenon leading to randomly distributed disasters around the globe. Due to massive economic and technical asymmetry between the advanced North and the developing South efficient climate and industrial policy is particular difficult.

The Financial Status and Local Credit Market Conditions of U.S. Farms Engaged in Multiple Borrowing
ABSTRACT Agricultural producers often borrow from multiple lenders, raising concerns about credit risk and monitoring. We construct detailed farm‐level measures of how debt is distributed across lenders and examine how farm financial status and the physical presence of local lenders are linked to this practice.

The specific visuality of women of the global South in the media of the global North
This paper examines how neoliberal, gendered discourses of globalization position marginalized communities of women in popular culture, focusing on the ways in which the media of the global North produces the specific visuality of women of the global ...

Quantitative Comparison of Ad‐Valorem Equivalents for Non‐Tariff Trade Measures: WTO Versus TRAINS
ABSTRACT Non‐tariff measures (NTMs) play a growing role in trade policy. Economists quantify NTMs by calculating their Ad Valorem Equivalents (AVE), typically employing one of two global NTM datasets: TRAINS from UNCTAD or WTO notifications. While TRAINS data better measure NTMs, their limited coverage over countries and time is inadequate for many ...

Modeling cosmic ray anisotropies near 10(18) eV [PDF]
A galactic magnetic field reversal near the Sagittarius spiral arm may be responsible for the southern excess (or northern shortage) of cosmic rays near 10 to the 18th power eV.

Bimodal Distribution of Area-Weighted Latitude of Sunspots And Solar North-South Asymmetry
We study the latitudinal distribution of sunspots observed from 1874 to 2009 using the center-of-latitude (COL). We calculate COL by taking the area-weighted mean latitude of sunspots for each calendar month.

Scalable Liquid‐Phase Exfoliation of h‐BN for Solar‐Reflective and Thermally Stable Polymer Aerogels
High‐pressure homogenization exfoliates hexagonal boron nitride (h‐BN) into stable nanosheets, which are incorporated into PVA, CMC, and HEC matrices to form lightweight composite aerogels. Tuning h‐BN loading (0–50 wt%) transforms the structure from porous to densely packed, tailoring optical, thermal, and mechanical properties. An optimized PVA/20 wt%
