This paper used the similarities between the ionospheres on Mars and Earth, the most similar of the terrestrial planets, to examine the relative importance of photochemical and transport processes at dawn and dusk. The amount of plasma present in the ion
Substantial progress was made in understanding influences on the poleward extent of the Indian Summer Monsoon (ISM). It is now widely believed that the Asian subtropical landmass causes positive energy fluxes in boreal summer into the atmosphere1. The resulting convergence of air masses over continen...
Children’s screen time has doubled during the pandemic — and it hasn’t gone down since, according to new research. Researchers from the University of California-San Francisco say youngsters are spending almost eight hours a day looking at smartphones, tablets, and televisions, compared to ...
, 1992] was used to normalize the continuous CHN1 measurements to a nominal nadir view at the solar zenith angle corresponding to the observed overpass time at the local summer solstice. This reference geometry was selected since it minimized the range of solar zenith angles to be normalized at...
And o’er it now in summer green’ Dark’ tangled branches wave. How beautiful the oak’s young leaves, In the bright days of Spring; Or, when a richer tint the skies Of early autumn bring: And all upon the dewy ground The acorn-cups are laid, ...
The day-to-day variability of the focus latitudes is greater in local winter than in local summer. We find the latitudes of the north and south foci are negatively correlated during December solstice months but have no significant correlation during the rest of the year. The seasonal variations...
The more differences in the temperatures, the stronger the pressure gradients and, hence, the higher the JS velocities. The formed winter circumpolar vortex with a jet stream contrasts strikingly with much weaker easterly winds in the summer stratosphere. In both hemispheres, the CPV formation ...
