Same but Different: A Framework to Design and Compare Riverbank Plastic Monitoring Strategies
Plastic pollution in rivers negatively impacts human livelihood and aquatic ecosystems. Monitoring data are crucial for a better understanding of sources, sinks and transport mechanisms of riverine macroplastics.

Observations on the observer pattern [PDF]
A group of students who should have been familiar with basic design principles and MVC all failed to implement the Observer design pattern correctly while at the same time violating several design principles. This paper discusses what went wrong and why it probably went wrong.

Improvements in aerosol layer height retrievals from TROPOMI oxygen A-band measurements by surface albedo fitting in optimal estimation [PDF]
The aerosol layer height (ALH), from the Sentinel-5P/TROPOMI L2_AER_LH product, is based on an optimal estimation (OE) approach, fitting cloud-free measurements to synthetic reflectances in the strongest oxygen absorption band, provided by a neural ...

Low Ionosphere under Influence of Strong Solar Radiation: Diagnostics and Modeling
Solar flares (SFs) and intense radiation can generate additional ionization in the Earth’s atmosphere and affect its structure. These types of solar radiation and activity create sudden ionospheric disturbances (SIDs), affect electronic equipment on the ...

Overlap Correction Function For an Airborne Based Lidar
The present research envisages the estimation of the overlap correction function for an airborne nadir-mounted lidar using multi-angle measurements. We have scanned a series of offnadir angles and after data processing we have been able to determine the ...

Harmonized cloud datasets for the Ozone Monitoring Instrument (OMI) and TROPOspheric Monitoring Instrument (TROPOMI) using the O2–O2 477 nm absorption band [PDF]
We present a new cloud retrieval algorithm using the O2–O2 absorption band at 477 nm, designed to provide harmonized cloud datasets from the Ozone Monitoring Instrument (OMI) and TROPOspheric Monitoring Instrument (TROPOMI).
