k-t FOCUSS with ME/MC and k-t SLR. MSE for 26 magnitude-valued datasets (A) and for 12 complexvalued datasets (B) showed that BLOSM achieved the minimum error. BLOSM also achieved the lowest error at all acceleration rates (C). (* P<0.01 BLOSM vs. the other methods, ANOVA; ** P<0.01 BLOSM vs. all the other methods, paired Student’s t-test) Figure 2. Example images at two time points (rows 1 and...

We present the results of a mid-infrared (λ ≃ 7 µm) imaging survey of a sample of 24 starless dense cores carried out at an angular resolution of 6 ′′ with the ISOCAM camera aboard the Infrared Space Observatory (ISO). The targeted cores are believed to be pre-stellar in nature and to represent the initial conditions of low-mass, isolated star formation. In previous submillimeter dust continuum...

Much progress has been made in creating satellite products for tracking the pollutants ozone and NO2 in the troposphere. Yet, in mid-latitude regions where meteorological interactions with pollutants are complex, accuracy can be difficult to achieve, largely due to persistent layering of some constituents. We characterize the layering of ozone soundings and related species measured from aircraf...

The purpose of this qualitative study was to examine the value of different methods of making meaning in music therapy improvisations. Six research participants met with the researcher and created solo and duo improvisations. Each improvisation was subjected to four methods of meaning-making: participant journals, researcher journals, dialogues, and musical analysis using the Improvisation Asse...

How can dangerous interference with the climate system be avoided? Science can help decision-makers answer this political question. Earlier publications have focused on the probability of keeping global mean temperature change below certain thresholds by stabilizing greenhouse gas concentrations at particular levels. We compare the results of such ‘‘stabilization profiles’’ with a set of ‘‘peak...

This is a descriptive, quantitative, and hypotheses testing study conducted on entrepreneurial and professional CEOs. This study has a particular interest in small medium enterprises (SMEs) because it constitutes the core of our economy and is a major factor of social composition. The purpose of present study is to investigate and explore differences on the motivational profile of Pakistani ent...

Accurate water vapor profiles from radiosondes are essential for long-term climate prediction, weather prediction, validation of remote sensing retrievals, and other applications. The Vaisala RS80, RS90, and RS92 radiosondes are among the more commonly deployed radiosondes in the world. However, numerous investigators have shown that the daytime water vapor profiles measured by these instrument...

As part of an international intercomparison project, the weak temperature gradient (WTG) and damped gravity wave (DGW) methods are used to parameterize large-scale dynamics in a set of cloud-resolving models (CRMs) and single column models (SCMs). The WTG or DGW method is implemented using a configuration that couples a model to a reference state defined with profiles obtained from the same mod...

We provide a first look at the results of the Herschel Gould Belt survey toward the IC 5146 molecular cloud and present a preliminary analysis of the filamentary structure in this region. The column density map, derived from our 70–500 μm Herschel data, reveals a complex network of filaments and confirms that these filaments are the main birth sites of prestellar cores. We analyze the column de...

This study presents the first systematic observations of active gas seepage from seafloor in main fjords western Spitsbergen Svalbard archipelago. High-resolution acoustic water column data were acquired throughout two research cruises August 2015 and June 2021. 883 flares have been identified characterized Isfjorden, 115 Van Mijenfjorden. The hydroacoustic indicate fluid migration into column....
