, 2017 Asteroids that are targets of spacecraft missions are interesting because they present us with an opportunity to validate ground-based spectral observations. One such object is near-Earth asteroid (NEA) (162173) Ryugu, which is the target of the Japanese

Surface Albedo over the Sahel from METEOSAT Radiances
Journal of Climate and Applied Meteorology, 1985 Abstract A method to estimate surface albedo in the African Sahel is proposed and discussed. This method, which uses METEOSAT imagery and routine surface global radiation measurement is shown to be relevant for climatological studies. The accuracy in the estimated albedos is analysed with respect to the intervening physical parameters. It is shown that

Impact of emerging compound droughts on forests: A water supply and demand perspective
Plant Biology, EarlyView.This review examines the physiological and ecological responses of trees to emerging compound droughts from a water demand and supply perspective, as well as the role of acclimation and consequences for ecosystem‐level functions. Abstract The intensification of climate change‐induced drought results in unprecedented tree and forest die‐offs worldwide ...

A climate‐sensitive tropical urbanism under extreme heat†
Singapore Journal of Tropical Geography, EarlyView.Tropical urban dwellers face twin climate challenges that impinge on their quality of life: climate overheating and the urban heat island (UHI). The latter superimposed on the former to lead to high levels of thermal discomfort, carbon and energy consequences.

Ejecta types on Ganymede and Callisto [PDF]
Ejecta types on Ganymede and Callisto have been identified from Voyager 1 and 2 images. Image resolution used range from approx. 0.6 to approx. 4 km/pxl, which allowed the surveying of almost all of the mappable surface of the two satellites.

The Role of Surface Albedo Feedback in Climate [PDF]
Journal of Climate, 2004 Abstract A coarse resolution coupled ocean–atmosphere simulation in which surface albedo feedback is suppressed by prescribing surface albedo, is compared to one where snow and sea ice anomalies are allowed to affect surface albedo. Canonical CO2-doubling experiments were performed with both models to assess the impact of this feedback on equilibrium ...
