The sensitivity of building cooling loads to possible changes in assumed values used in future weather data generation is investigated. It is shown that, with a +10% change in proposed future values of solar radiation, air humidity or wind characteristics, the corresponding change in the cooling ...
as altitude, proximity to Lake Tanganyika, and local weather patterns, leading to regional variability in temperature changes. Central Tanzania: Regions in the central part of the country, including Dodoma and Singida, may show distinct temperature anomaly patterns based on their geographical location ...
By most accounts, 2023 will be a tough year: potential long-term recession, continued conflicts, and extreme weather events, not to mention more countries moving towards isolationist and reactionary leaders. Brands and businesses will need to think hard about how to not only survive and thrive in...

Google Home is able to support up to six user accounts and detect unique voices. This allows Google Home users to customize many features. Users can ask “What’s on my calendar today?” or “Tell me about my day?” and the assistant will dictate commute times, weather, and news informa...
This is similar to the Likelihood Skill Score used for evaluating weather and climate predictions (Barnston et al., 2010). Specifically, we first assume that annual hurricane frequency is drawn from a Poisson distribution whose mean (λt) has a trend in time (λt = at + b). We then ...
Runoff from glacierised Andean river basins is essential for sustaining the livelihoods of millions of people. By running a high-resolution climate model over the two most glacierised regions of Peru we unravel past climatic trends in precipitation and t
