To support large-scale deployment of unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) in the future, a new wireless communication paradigm, namely, cellular-connected UAV, has recently received an upsurge interest both academia and industry. Specifically, cellular base stations (BSs) spectrum are reused to serve UAVs as user equipments (UEs) for meeting their requirements. However, compared traditional terrestr...

A novel new approach to retrieve cloud microphysical properties from mixed-phase clouds is presented. This algorithm retrieves cloud optical depth, ice fraction, and the effective size of the water and ice particles from ground-based, high-resolution infrared radiance observations. The theoretical basis is that the absorption coefficient of ice is stronger than that of liquid water from 10 μm t...

Archivists pride themselves on the detection and restoration of the “original order” of the archival fonds, which represents most of the time-honored labor of archival arrangement. Digital records’ affordances, however, mean that even in active use they may simultaneously lend themselves to multiple virtual orderings, none of them representing an actual physical ordering of the records on any m...

Abstract Downwelling longwave radiation is an important part of the surface energy budget. Spectral trends in downwelling radiance (DLR) provide insight into radiative drivers climate change. In this research, we process and analyze a 23‐year DLR record measured by Atmospheric Emitted Radiance Interferometer (AERI) at U.S. Department Energy Radiation Program Southern Great Plains (SGP) site. Tw...

Atmospheric Emitted Radiance Interferometer (AERI) spectra provide detailed characterization of the infrared component of the surface radiation budget (Ellingson et al. 1995), support spectroscopic (Clough et al. 1989; Revercomb et al. 1995) and cloud (Smith et al. 1992; Collard et al. 1995) radiative modeling studies for improving radiative transfer calculations, and are the basis for high tim...

In the neutron-Pb scattering in the MeV. region, existence of the long range interaction has been known and people have hopefully expected to understand it as the effect of the electric polarization of the neutron. However the precise determination of αn in the very low energy region indicates that the polarizability of the neutron αn is around two order of magnitude smaller compared to what is...

This paper defines recordkeeping metadata and offers the concept of the Archival Multiverse and the Records Continuum Model as complementary frames within which research and development in recordkeeping metadata can be situated. To demonstrate the significant and evolving nature of this work and how it is situated within the Records Continuum, the paper first provides a brief overview of key ef...

Temperature and humidity profiles in the atmospheric boundary layer are essential for climate studies. The ground-based infrared hyperspectral spectrometer has advantage of measuring radiances emitted from atmosphere at a high temporal moderate vertical resolution. In this article, retrieval temperature observations is exploited. Although existing inversion algorithms based on physical models o...

Abstract Ground-based thermodynamic and kinematic profilers were placed adjacent to the western shore of Lake Michigan at two sites as part 2017 Ozone Study. The southern site near Zion, Illinois, hosted a microwave radiometer (MWR) sodar wind profiler, while northern in Sheboygan, Wisconsin, featured an Atmospheric Emitted Radiance Interferometer (AERI), Doppler lidar, High Spectral Resolution...

In order to settle the fundamental question whether the nuclear forces involve the long range components, the S-wave amplitude of the proton-proton scattering is analysed in search for the extra singularity at ν = 0, which corresponds to the long range force. To facilitate the search, a function, which is free from the singularities in the neighborhood of ν = 0 when all the interactions are sho...
