The glint of gold: Press coverage of the discovery of Tutankhamun's tomb
Press coverage of the discovery of Tutankhamun's tomb, through articles published in the London Times and New York Times from November 30, 1922 to January 31, 1923, will be analyzed. A contract between the excavators and the London Times provided the newspaper with exclusive reports and …

Remote measurement of aerosol optical properties using the NOAA POES AVHRR during ACE-1, TARFOX and ACE-2
… of the AVHRR. Automated cloud screening and sun glint removal is included. Retrieved satellite aerosol optical depth (AOD) is compared to surface measured sunphotometer AOD collected during the International Global Atmospheric Chemistry (IGAC) Project's Second Aerosol Characterization Experiment …

Characterization and Control of an Electrospinning Process
… electrospinning jet path, that depend on bright glints of reflected light from the jet, recorded quantitative information about the location and vector velocity of selected segments of the jet. New bending coils were observed to form at rates of 200-1560 turns per second. This bending frequency …

Computational approaches for sub-meter ocean color remote sensing
… I find that of the three most widely used glint correction algorithms, a spectral optimization based approach applied to measurements with a 40∘ view angle best recovers the remotesensing reflectance and chlorophyll concentration despite centimeter scale variability in the surface-reflected …

Development and verification of the NASA Multi-Angle Imager for Aerosols operational cloud mask
… 90% in agreement with MODIS for deep non-sun-glint water and the first 11 of the 16 snow-free land surface types. It differs from the MODIS cloud mask the most over bright desert, mountains and coastlines due to false cloudy flags. It agrees well with the MODIS cloud mask for cumulus, stratus …

Integrated perception, modeling, and control paradigm for bistatic sonar tracking by autonomous underwater vehicles
… Littoral Interoperable Network Technology (GLINT) 2009 and 2010 experiments. The experiments were conducted jointly with the NATO Undersea Research Centre (NURC).

Estimating the water quality condition of river and lake water in the Midwestern United States from its spectral characteristics
… solids (TSS). A method for removing sky and sun glint from field spectra for turbid inland waters was developed and tested. Empirical models were then developed using a subset of the field measurements with the rest for model validation. Spectral characteristics indicative of waters dominated by …

Interactions of Organic Fluorophores with Plasmonic Surface Lattice Resonances
… and films, which explains, in part, the fiery glint of gold-plated statues in sunlight, the faithful image reflection from silvered-glass mirrors, the use of a burnished speculum (roughly 70% copper, 30 % tin, by weight) alloy plate in the first reflecting telescope, and the use today of …
