Flash drought prediction using deep learning
Flash droughts are rapid, short-term drought events that develop within weeks, driven by factors such as low rainfall, high temperatures, and strong winds, which deplete soil moisture and stress vegetation. These events have profound agricultural, economic, and ecological impacts, yet the use of machine learning to predict flash droughts remains underexplored, hindered by challenges like imbalanced datasets and limited data. This study addresses …
Media spectacles
Contemporary popular arts in Third World locations are agents of emergent modernities produced in the context of global interactions. This paper focuses on hand‐painted Tamil cinema advertisements that dominate the urban landscape in Chennai (Madras). Based on ethnographic research I demonstrate that the production network of these objects—methods of training, application of technology, and stylistic criteria—is constantly mutating. Reception of …
