“New World Water”
Water has provided hip hop with a variety of central metaphors by which the genre has enriched its poetic terminology of the flow, denoted spiritual purity, or discussed political and police corruption. Over the last two decades, water-related environmental concerns and catastrophes have prompted hip hop artists to develop a more literal approach. This article showcases how selected songs of black conscious and indigenous rap—Yasiin Bey’s “New Wo…
Road network selection for medium scales using an extended stroke-mesh combination algorithm
The road network is an essential feature class in topographic maps and databases. Road network selection for smaller scales forms a prerequisite for all other generalization operators and is thus a fundamental operation in the overall process of topographic map and database production. The objective of this paper was to develop an algorithm for automated road network selection from a large-scale (1:10,000) to a medium-scale database (1:50,000). T…
Deactivation of ice nuclei due to atmospherically relevant surface coatings
The ice nucleation characteristics of Arizona test dust (ATD) and illite clay, surrogates for atmospheric ice nuclei, have been determined at the Aerosol Interactions and Dynamics in the Atmosphere (AIDA) chamber located at the Research Center Karlsruhe in Germany. The objective of this research was to determine the effect of sulfuric acid and ammonium sulfate coatings on the ability of these mineral dust surrogates to nucleate ice in an environm…
The effect of organic coating on the heterogeneous ice nucleation efficiency of mineral dust aerosols
The effect of organic coating on the heterogeneous ice nucleation (IN) efficiency of dust particles was investigated at simulated cirrus cloud conditions in the AIDA cloud chamber of Forschungszentrum Karlsruhe. Arizona test dust (ATD) and the clay mineral illite were used as surrogates for atmospheric dust aerosols. The dry dust samples were dispersed into a 3.7 m3 aerosol vessel and either directly transferred into the 84 m3 cloud simulation ch…
Maid
The comprehensive model MAID (model for aerosol and ice dynamics) was developed to simulate condensation and freezing in aerosol particles residing in the UT/LS (upper troposphere/lower stratosphere). The exact balancing of trace gas components is a particular emphasis of MAID. MAID is applied to and verified by experiments in the aerosol chamber AIDA, and, moreover, it is adapted to Lagrangian atmospheric cirrus cloud simulations. Here, the mode…
