description: The purpose of this technical report is to provide current documentation of the Sensor Intercomparison and Merger for Biological and Interdisciplinary Oceanic Studies (SIMBIOS) Project Office activities on in situ aerosol optical thickness (i.e., protocols, data QC and analysis). This documentation is necessary to ensure that critical information is related to the scientific community and NASA management. This critical information includes the technical difficulties and challenges of validating and combining ocean color data from an array of independent satellite systems to form consistent and accurate global bio-optical time series products. This technical report is not meant as a substitute for scientific literature. Instead, it will provide a ready and responsive vehicle for the multitude of technical reports issued by an operational project.

description: At the center of J.M. Coetzee’s fiction lies the question of how one may navigate a world defined by the racial tension of a settler-colonial state. While Coetzee’s work samples multiple perspectives and pockets of society, a common theme of his novels is a character’s struggle to find spaces where they can experience individual freedom. The struggles evident within Coetzee’s work, evocative of the challenge of placing the author within a particular literary sphere, seem to reach all characters, regardless of their identity as either settler or Indigene. Through a spatial reading of three of Coetzee’s apartheid-era novels, as well as one more recent work published after the dismantling of South Africa’s apartheid, this study analyzes how a character struggles for liberation, and what steps may be necessary in order to find a place of one’s own.

description: The physical and optical properties of biomass burning aerosols in a savanna region in south central Africa (Zambia) were analyzed from measurements made during the Zambian International Biomass Burning Emissions Experiment (ZIBBEE) during August-September 1997. Due to the large spatial extent of African savannas and the high frequency of occurrence of burning in the annual dry seasons, characterization of the optical properties of the resultant biomass burning aerosols is important for the study of atmospheric radiative processes and for remote sensing of both surface and atmospheric properties in these regions. Aerosol Robotic Network Sun-sky radiometer spectral measurements of direct Sun observations and directional sky radiances were utilized to infer spectral aerosol optical depths (?a), aerosol size distributions, and single-scattering albedos. During the primary ZIBBEE study period, which coincided with the peak period of biomass burning in the region, there was a high correlation between the measured ?a and the total column water vapor or precipitable water vapor (PWV), suggesting transport of smoke aerosol from regions with higher PWV. Size distribution retrievals of the biomass burning smoke show that the accumulation mode dominated and a comparison with smoke from Amazonia (Bolivia) shows a shift toward smaller particles for African savanna smoke. This may be the result of differences in mode of combustion (flaming versus smoldering), fuel type and moisture content, and the aging processes of the aerosol. The single-scattering albedo (?0) of the aerosols were retrieved using several approaches, yielding average values of ?0 at ?550 nm during ZIBBEE varying from ?0.82 to ?0.85, thus showing good agreement within the retrieval uncertainty of ?0.03 of these methods. In general, ?0 was relatively constant as a function of aerosol loading, with very little change occurring for ?a at 440 nm ranging from 0.7 to 1.7. African savanna smoke exhibits significantly higher absorption than smoke from Amazonian forested regions and also a greater rate of decrease of ?0 with increasing wavelength. Variations in the spectral change of the Angström wavelength exponent were also investigated with respect to the degree of aerosol absorption and changes in the accumulation mode size distributions.

description: Five Microtops II Sun photometers were studied in detail at the NASA Goddard Space Flight Center (GSFC) to determine their performance in measuring aerosol optical thickness (AOT or ?a?) and precipitable column water vapor (W). Each derives ?a? from measured signals at four wavelengths ? (340, 440, 675, and 870 nm), and W from the 936 nm signal measurements. Accuracy of ?a? and W determination depends on the reliability of the relevant channel calibration coefficient (V0). Relative calibration by transfer of parameters from a more accurate Sun photometer (such as the Mauna-Loa-calibrated AERONET master Sun photometer at GSFC) is more reliable than Langley calibration performed at GSFC. It was found that the factory-determined value of the instrument constant for the 936 nm filter (k = 0.7847) used in the Microtops' internal algorithm is unrealistic, causing large errors in V0(936), ?a936, and W. Thus, when applied for transfer calibration at GSFC, whereas the random variation of V0 at 340 to 870 nm is quite small, with coefficients of variation (CV) in the range of 0 to 2.4%, at 936 nm the CV goes up to 19%. Also, the systematic temporal variation of V0 at 340 to 870 nm is very slow, while at 936 nm it is large and exhibits a very high dependence on W. The algorithm also computes ?a936 as 0.91 ?a870, which is highly simplistic. Therefore, it is recommended to determine ?a936 by logarithmic extrapolation from ?a675 and ?a870. From the operational standpoint of the Microtops, apart from errors that may result from unperceived cloud contamination, the main sources of error include inaccurate pointing to the Sun, neglecting to clean the front quartz window, and neglecting to calibrate correctly. If these three issues are adequately taken care of, the Microtops can be quite accurate and stable, with root-mean-square (rms) differences between corresponding retrievals from clean calibrated Microtops and the AERONET Sun photometer being about ±0.02 at 340 nm, decreasing down to about ±0.01 at 870 nm.

description: The Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) Atmospheres data product suite includes three algorithms applied to retrieve midvisible aerosol optical depth (AOD): the Enhanced Deep Blue (DB) and Dark Target (DT) algorithms over land, and a DT over-water algorithm. All three have been refined in the recent “Collection 6” (C6) MODIS reprocessing. In particular, DB has been expanded to cover vegetated land surfaces as well as brighter desert/urban areas. Additionally, a new “merged” data set which draws from all three algorithms is included in the C6 products. This study is intended to act as a point of reference for new and experienced MODIS data users with which to understand the global and regional characteristics of the C6 DB, DT, and merged data sets, based on MODIS Aqua data. This includes validation against Aerosol Robotic Network (AERONET) observations at 111 sites, focused toward regional and categorical (surface/aerosol type) analysis. Neither algorithm consistently outperforms the other, although in many cases the retrieved AOD and the level of its agreement with AERONET are very similar. In many regions the DB, DT, and merged data sets are all suitable for quantitative applications, bearing in mind that they cannot be considered independent, while in other cases one algorithm does consistently outperform the other. Usage recommendations and caveats are thus somewhat complicated and regionally dependent.

description: Landslide susceptibility mapping is most effective if detailed surface and subsurface information can be combined with authoritative landslide catalogs or a deep understanding of local conditions. However, these types of homogeneous input data and catalogs are frequently not available over large areas. In this study, we model landslide susceptibility in Central America and the Caribbean islands by combining three globally available datasets and one regional dataset with fuzzy overlay. This primarily heuristic model provides the flexibility to test a range of different contributing variables and the capability to compare landslide inventories within the model framework that vary greatly in their size, spatiotemporal scope, and collection methods. We create a regional susceptibility map and evaluate its performance using receiver operating characteristics for both continuous and binned susceptibility values. This susceptibility map forms the basis for a near-real-time landslide hazard assessment system that couples susceptibility with rainfall and soil moisture triggers to estimate potential landslide activity at a regional scale. The application of this susceptibility model at the regional scale provides a foundation for transferring the methodology to other geographic areas.

description: The United Arab Emirates Unified Aerosol experiment provided a unique opportunity for testing aerosol retrieval algorithms in conditions where the optical influence of coarse mode particles was significant. Comparisons between Aerosol Robotic Network (AERONET) Sun photometry retrievals of a previously reported spectral deconvolution algorithm (SDA) and surface-based microphysical and optical measurements showed levels of correlation suggestive of moderate vertical homogeneity for (extensive) measures of fine and coarse mode aerosol particles and stronger vertical homogeneity for indicators of (intensive) aerosol type. An extension of the SDA into the short-wave infrared (SDA+) was developed in order to exploit the enhanced coarse mode information available in new AERONET instruments which include a 1.64 ?m channel. Comparisons between values of coarse mode Angstrom exponent (?c (1.64 ?m)) retrieved from SDA+ and effective (coarse mode) radius derived from AERONET inversions showed moderate but significant correlations. Correlations between coarse mode effective radius derived from ?c (1.64 ?m) and surface-based volume mean diameter estimates underscored the physical significance of the spectral retrievals and suggested moderate vertical homogeneity in terms of coarse mode particle size.

description: The Deep Blue (DB) and Satellite Ocean Aerosol Retrieval (SOAR) algorithms have previously been applied to observations from sensors like the Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometers (MODIS) and Sea-viewing Wide Field-of-view Sensor (SeaWiFS) to provide records of midvisible aerosol optical depth (AOD) and related quantities over land and ocean surfaces, respectively. Recently, DB and SOAR have also been applied to Advanced Very High Resolution Radiometer (AVHRR) observations from several platforms (NOAA11, NOAA14, and NOAA18), to demonstrate the potential for extending the DB and SOAR AOD records. This study provides an evaluation of the initial version (V001) of the resulting AVHRR-based AOD data set, including validation against Aerosol Robotic Network (AERONET) and ship-borne observations, and comparison against both other AVHRR AOD records and MODIS/SeaWiFS products at select long-term AERONET sites. Although it is difficult to distil error characteristics into a simple expression, the results suggest that one standard deviation confidence intervals on retrieved AOD of ±(0.03 + 15%) over water and ±(0.05 + 25%) over land represent the typical level of uncertainty, with a tendency toward negative biases in high-AOD conditions, caused by a combination of algorithmic assumptions and sensor calibration issues. Most of the available validation data are for NOAA18 AVHRR, although performance appears to be similar for the NOAA11 and NOAA14 sensors as well.

description: Column aerosol absorption properties in the visible wavelengths are measured routinely in worldwide locations by NASA AERONET network (http://aeronet.gsfc.nasa.gov), while similar optical properties in UV can be derived from diffuse and global irradiance measurements measured with Multifilter Rotating Shadowband Radiometer (MFRSR) instruments of the USDA UV-MFRSR network (http://uvb.nrel.colostate.edu). To enable direct comparisons between the two techniques, we have modified our UV-MFRSR by replacing standard 300nm filter with 440nm filter used in AERONET network. The modified UV/VIS-MFRSR has been mostly deployed at AERONET calibration site at NASA GSFC in Greenbelt, MD, but also at number of field campaigns. While the UV-MSFRSR instrument is highly susceptible to calibration drifts, these drifts can be accurately assessed using co-located AERONET direct-sun AOT data. In 2006 quartz dome has been installed atop the MFRSR diffuser, which stabilized calibration drifts in 2007-2009. After correcting for remaining calibration changes, the AOT and single scattering albedo (SSA) at the UV wavelengths can be accurately inferred by fitting the measurements of global and diffuse atmospheric transmittances with the forward RT model at each UV-MFRSR spectral channel. Derived AOT and SSA at common wavelength 440nm by two different techniques are generally in good agreement. We also found that SSA becomes smaller in the UV wavelengths and has strong wavelength dependence across blue and near-UV spectral range. The measured enhanced UV absorption might suggest the presence of selectively UV absorbing aerosols. High spectral resolution SSA measurements in UV-VIS wavelengths are called for.

description: In the fall of 1997 the Atmospheric Radiation Measurement program conducted a study of water-vapor-abundance-measurement at its southern Great Plains site. The large number of instruments included four solar radiometers to measure the columnar water vapor (CWV) by measuring solar transmittance in the 0.94-µm water-vapor absorption band. At first, no attempt was made to standardize our procedures to the same radiative transfer model and its underlying water-vapor spectroscopy. In the second round of comparison we used the same line-by-line code (which includes recently corrected H2O spectroscopy) to retrieve CWV from all four solar radiometers, thus decreasing the mean CWV by 8–13%. The remaining spread of 8% is an indication of the other-than-model uncertainties involved in the retrieval.

description: The spectral deconvolution algorithm (SDA) and SDA+ (extended SDA) methodologies can be employed to separate the fine and coarse mode extinction coefficients from measured total aerosol extinction coefficients, but their common use is currently limited to AERONET (AErosol RObotic NETwork) aerosol optical depth (AOD). Here we provide the verification of the SDA+ methodology on a non-AERONET aerosol product, by applying it to fine and coarse mode nephelometer and particle soot absorption photometer (PSAP) data sets collected in the marine boundary layer. Using data sets collected on research vessels by NOAA-PMEL(National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration – Pacific Marine Environmental Laboratory), we demonstrate that with accurate input, SDA+ is able to predict the fine and coarse mode scattering and extinction coefficient partition in global data sets representing a range of aerosol regimes. However, in low-extinction regimes commonly found in the clean marine boundary layer, SDA+ output accuracy is sensitive to instrumental calibration errors. This work was extended to the calculation of coarse and fine mode scattering coefficients with similar success. This effort not only verifies the application of the SDA+ method to in situ data, but by inference verifies the method as a whole for a host of applications, including AERONET. Study results open the door to much more extensive use of nephelometers and PSAPs, with the ability to calculate fine and coarse mode scattering and extinction coefficients in field campaigns that do not have the resources to explicitly measure these values.

Nostalgia and the Loss of Truth: Sketches Towards a Hauntology of the “Post-Truth” Condition
Creators: name: Schädel, Tobias
Publisher: name: Diffractions
Year: 2024

description: Among the most popular attempts to give a coherent diagnosis of the political frictions of contemporary Western societies resides the concept of a supposed “post-truth” era. While the underlying premise of a once vivid and now lost culture of truth has been debunked many times, attempts to understand more closely what is actually meant when “the truth” is proclaimed dead are exceedingly rare. By drawing from the works of Jacques Derrida, Zygmunt Bauman and Ernesto Laclau, this paper will shift the analytical focus towards a hauntological reading of the “post-truth” condition. Through examining both liberal and populist cultures of truth as well as their guiding political imaginaries, the paper will show that, as vastly different as their respective notions of “the truth” might be, they are both guided by retrotopian nostalgia for a fictionalized past, that not only forces them to bury “the truth” but to inherit its legacy.

When the Future was Infinitely Open: On Absence and Presence of Nostalgia in Hannah Black’s Tuesday or September or the End
Creators: name: Danilova, Nina
Publisher: name: Diffractions
Year: 2024

description: This article engages with the question of nostalgia through analyzing Hannah Black’s speculative novella Tuesday or September or The End (2021). In her book, Black describes how subjects living amid temporal stagnation and crises of future-making seek relief through participation in an uprising that aims to bring down a neoliberal government and turn the city of New York into a commune. Thinking with Mark Fisher’s (2012) work on hauntology and Bernard Stiegler’s (1998 [1996]) writing on protentional temporalities, I set out to develop ways to attend to Black’s interest to underpin specific forms of nostalgia, or the lack thereof, that intensify projections into the imminent future. I show how Black operationalizes her own nostalgic attitude towards an unsuccessful revolt to construct a working model of future-hauntology and shift away from the looping nostalgia for cultural and social forms of the past that impede future-making.

"A painful homecoming": Harry Potter fanfiction and nostalgia via All the Young Dudes by MsKingBean89
Creators: name: Heise, Nina
Publisher: name: Diffractions
Year: 2024

description: In this paper, I will consider fanfiction as an inherently nostalgic group of texts, an argument that has not yet been explored in much detail within fan studies. A close reading of one of the most popular Harry Potter fanfictions, MsKingBean89’s All the Young Dudes, will serve to demonstrate this point. My analysis will situate the text in the context of Britain’s vote to leave the EU and the vote’s aftermath. In this moment of crisis, All the Young Dudes demonstrates a nostalgic longing for community and a habitable national identity, partially evoking conservative ideas of British cultural hegemony despite politically progressive gestures in both the text and paratext. Through my analysis, I aim to show how fanfiction can be read not only as an affective adaptation of a source text but also as political commentary on the moment of its publication.

A Jeeves and the Nostalgia for Unity
Creators: name: Sousa Simões, Hugo
Publisher: name: Diffractions
Year: 2024

description: This paper argues that the Jeeves saga by P.G. Wodehouse (1881-1975) is imbued with a nostalgia that does not simply pander to the desire to relive or reinstate a particular historical way of life, but is instead part and parcel of Wodehouse’s comic evocation of a stereotyped Englishness. Such an Englishness is in turn tied to notions of a golden pastoral past, a “Merry England” reminiscent of utopias like Eden and Arcadia. The case is then made that this nostalgia amounts to what Albert Camus called a “nostalgia for unity” (Camus 1979, 23), a desire to return to a reality in which the individual is in harmony with both society and Nature, and one that is central to the practice of literature. Ultimately, the conclusion sets forth that the Jeeves saga deals with this nostalgia – a nostalgia for what is likely an impossibility – in the way that its author deals with the cliché: acknowledgement and playfulness.
