Atmospheric scintillation in astronomical photometry
Scintillation noise due to the Earth’s turbulent atmosphere can be a dominant noise source in high-precision astronomical photometry when observing bright targets from the ground. Here we describe the phenomenon of scintillation from its physical origins to its effect on photometry. We show that Young’s scintillation-noise approximation used by many astronomers tends to underestimate the median...
متن کاملGravity acceleration at the sea surface derived from satellite altimetry data using harmonic splines
Gravity acceleration data have grand pursuit for marine applications. Due to environmental effects, marine gravity observations always hold a high noise level. In this paper, we propose an approach to produce marine gravity data using satellite altimetry, high-resolution geopotential models and harmonic splines. On the one hand, harmonic spline functions have great capability for local gravity ...
متن کاملSmall Mammals from the Cloud Forest at Cerro Bobi, Sierra
S 99 Over time, a population of rotifers had contaminated the Scenedesmus sp. cultures, triggering the production of multicelluar, spinous forms, a typical anti-predator strategy for this genus. It is then concluded that Scenedesmus sp. does exhibit phenotypic plasticity in response to biotic and abiotic changes in the surrounding environment. Additionally, some genetic variation was found in s...
متن کاملImplications of atmospheric conditions for analysis of surface temperature variability derived from landscape-scale thermography
Thermal infrared (TIR) cameras perfectly bridge the gap between (i) on-site measurements of land surface temperature (LST) providing high temporal resolution at the cost of low spatial coverage and (ii) remotely sensed data from satellites that provide high spatial coverage at relatively low spatio-temporal resolution. While LST data from satellite (LSTsat) and airborne platforms are routinely ...
متن کاملAstronomical Data Management
We present a summary of the major contributions to the Special Session on Data Management held at the IAU General Assembly in Prague in 2006. While recent years have seen enormous improvements in access to astronomical data, and the Virtual Observatory aims to provide astronomers with seamless access to on-line resources, more attention needs to be paid to ensuring the quality and completeness ...
