Kernel‐Based Estimation of Stratospheric Aerosol Radiative Effects From Volcanic and Wildfire Events
Abstract To facilitate the quantification of the stratospheric aerosol direct radiative effect (ARE), this study develops a suite of aerosol kernels based on Modern‐Era Retrospective Analysis for Research and Applications, Version 2 reanalysis data. The kernels comprise a five‐dimensional data set that includes latitude, longitude, time, wavelength ...

An Analytical Model of the Lifecycle of Tropical Anvil Cloud Radiative Effects
Abstract Satellite observations and numerical simulations show that the small net Cloud Radiative Effect (CRE) of tropical anvil clouds results from a near‐cancellation between large but opposing longwave (LW) and shortwave (SW) components over the cloud's lifecycle.

Abstract Anthropogenic emissions over China have recently declined due to environmental actions. This work estimates the sensitivity of sulfate aerosol (SO4 ${\text{SO}}_{4}$) concentration to the amount of SO2 ${\text{SO}}_{2}$ emissions reduction over China from 2010 to 2020 using an Earth system model with two different aerosol representations.

Indoor Localization Based on Time of Arrival Using Multi-Zone Technique
Indoor position localization suffers from the regressive signal when the system implement based on Receive Signal Strength (RSS) and time synchronization when implement based on Time of Arrival (ToA).

The Atmosphere's Substantial Role in Interannual Variability of Earth's Energy Imbalance
Abstract Earth's Energy Imbalance (EEI) is a key metric to quantify climate change. While the ocean absorbs most excess heat, the atmosphere contributes only 1%–2% to the long‐term mean of EEI. However, our analysis of observational data demonstrates that variations in the atmosphere's energy content play a much larger role in interannual variations of

Abstract Mixed‐phase clouds modulate the water and energy cycles of high‐latitude regions, yet their liquid‐ice phase partitioning has long been poorly simulated in climate models. Here, simulations of Arctic mixed‐phase clouds by the Simple Cloud‐Resolving E3SM Atmosphere Model (SCREAM) are assessed against large‐eddy simulations, satellite data, and ...

Position determination of acoustic source using a discrete probability density method supported by joint detection and time of arrival estimation [PDF]
The localization of various acoustic sources in a battlefield (such as weapon rounds, mortars, rockets, mines, improvised explosive devices, vehicle-borne improvised explosive devices and airborne vehicles) nowadays has significant history.

Room geometry estimation from a single channel acoustic impulse response [PDF]
For a 2D rectangular room of unknown dimensions and with unknown source and microphone positions, the times of arrival of reflections can be described in terms of im-age source positions.

Non-line-of-sight Node Localization based on Semi-Definite Programming in Wireless Sensor Networks
An unknown-position sensor can be localized if there are three or more anchors making time-of-arrival (TOA) measurements of a signal from it. However, the location errors can be very large due to the fact that some of the measurements are from non-line ...
