Our ancient national airs: Scottish song collecting c.1760-1888
… Scots Musical Museum, ‘Our Ancient National Airs’, has implications which can be traced throughout this period. The nature of the finished collections tells us much about editorial decisions, value-judgements, and intended audiences. The prefaces, other published writings and surviving …

Angelic airs/subversive songs: Music as cultural discourse in Victorian literature and society
"This study extends the critical discussion on nineteenth-century aesthetics to include music, a rarely studied yet vital Victorian artform. I argue that Victorians concurrently idealized music as a transcendent corrective to social ills and feared it as a subversive context for these ills. In …

Enabling methodologies for optimal coverage by multiple autonomous industrial robots
… application, Autonomous Industrial Robots (AIRs) are adaptable to new operating conditions or environments. An AIR is an industrial robot, with or without a mobile platform, that has the intelligence needed to operate autonomously in a complex and unstructured environment. This intelligence …

A Survey of Seasonal, Hemispheric and Interannual Variations in the Gravity Wave Spectrum in the Upper Stratosphere and Lower Mesosphere
… instrument and the Atmospheric Infrared Sounder (AIRS). Data from the years 2019–2021 are examined, covering both stratospheric and mesospheric altitudes and focusing on four representative months: January, February, July, and August. CIPS and AIRS datasets are processed using custom-built …

ASSESSING PERFORMANCE OF NCEP RAPID REFRESH MODEL TO PREDICT BOUNDARY LAYER PROPERTIES
… resolution for temperature and water vapor. The AIRS hyperspectral sensor may be able to retrieve relative humidity with 20% RMSE but low correlations with R<sup>2</sup> – 0.4. The alternative is to explore meteorological forecasts (i.e. Rapid Refresh) to see if we can use them in the processing …

INVESTIGATION OF TRACER GAS VARIABILITY FROM OBSERVATIONS AND MODELS
… region, using Atmospheric Infrared Sounder (AIRS) mid-tropospheric CO2 retrievals led to the discovery of a signal with a periodicity of around two years, which was found to be related to the Tropospheric Biennial Oscillation (TBO). During strong (weak) monsoon years, the Western Walker …

Acoustical-molecular techniques for magnetic resonance imaging
… Acoustically Induced Rotary Saturation (AIRS), which switches "on" and "off" the image contrast due to the agents by adjusting the resonance of the spin-lock condition. This contrast modulation ability provides unprecedented clarity in identifying contrast agent presence as well as …

James Joyce, Music, and Narrative
… Joyce (1974), and Ruth Bauerle's Picking up Airs (1993), have concentrated primarily on identifying the hundreds of allusions to popular and operatic songs in Joyce's fictions. My work leans heavily on this research and expands this approach in two ways. First, I see music in the texts as …

Improved uncertainty estimates for geophysical parameter retrieval
… current generation operational instruments like AIRS/AMSU, as well as a hypothetical future hyper- spectral microwave sounder. Mixture density networks (MDN) and Sparse Pseudo Input Gaussian processes (SPGP) were found to be the most accurate at variance prediction. Both of these are novel …

Improving Global Satellite Precipitation Products Utilizing Machine Learning
… satellites (e.g., Atmospheric Infrared Sensor [AIRS] already used in GPCP) cannot provide temporal sampling required by IMERG. So far, no study has carefully assessed/ranked available infrared products (or alternative retrievals) in high latitudes to provide practical guidance and recommendation …

Flute Performance Practice in the Tragédies en Musique of Jean-Philippe Rameau
… combinations within dance movements, vocal airs, and orchestral interludes provides numerous scenarios for the flutist to evaluate performance practice in relationship to other ensemble members. Historical considerations for this essay include the instrumentation, musical leadership, and …

"Defective childhoods": television news and the social construction of the 'child in need'
… particularly television news, produces and airs news reports and special programs presenting social justice and human rights stories. Some of these news reports feature children with identified emotional, financial, or other needs. Due to television news' pervasiveness and influence in …

Retrieval of cloud-cleared atmospheric temperature profiles from hyperspectral infrared and microwave observations
… for simulated Atmospheric Infrared Sounder (AIRS) and Advanced Microwave Sounding Unit (AMSU) radiances using neural networks. RMS temperature profile retrieval errors of -0.5 K were obtained for all levels of the atmosphere from 0-15 km in clear air at a horizontal resolution of 2000 km2 and …

Validation, Analysis of Annual Cycle, and Biogenic Sequestration of CO2, and Modulation of CH4
… CO2 from satellites (e.g., OCO 2, GOSAT, AIRS, TES) offer a fresh opportunity to understand the variability of CO2 over the global domain that was unattainable before due to sparse in situ measurements. First, two innovative satellite data sets, Orbiting Carbon Observatory (OCO-2) and …

Robust compression of multispectral remote sensing data
… NASA 2378-channel Atmospheric Infrared Sounder (AIRS). Near-lossless compression ratios of up to 32:1 (0.4 bits/pixel/channel) were obtained in the absence of impulsive noise, without preserving outliers, and assuming the nominal noise covariance. An average noise variance reduction of 12-14 dB …
