Huh. In Philip P. Peterson's "Transport" SciFi series, the 5th book (currently only available in German), there was a "plague" in the 2020s that grounded all space missions for a long while. That book was published 15.05.2020, #COVID became "public" December 2019, only 6 months ago - kinda short publishing period. So either Peterson quickly rewrote that part and pu…

Should not be necessary given the ruling against Trump’s White House in 2020, but here we are anyway:

I feel sad when publications I've read in the past stop being published on paper.
I've also not bought a paper magazine or comic (single) since March 2020.

Temporally Extending Existing Web Archive Collections for Longitudinal Analysis
The Environmental Governance and Data Initiative (EDGI) regularly crawled US federal environmental websites between 2016 and 2020 to capture changes between two presidential administrations. However, because it does not include the previous administration ending in 2008, the collection is unsuitable for answering our research question, Were the website terms deleted by the Trump administration (2017--2021) added by the Obama administration (2009--2017)? Thus, like many researchers using the Way…

Magnetic evolution of complex solar active regions
Aims. This study investigates the magnetic evolution of solar active regions (ARs), with a particular focus on understanding how the magnetic morphology of simple and complex ARs changes throughout their lifetime. Methods. To analyse the magnetic evolution of ARs, we developed a Magnetic Evolution Method (MEM) that segments each region's lifetime into three phases: growth, main, and recovery. The method was applied to ARs observed between January 1996 and December 2020. Results. We found that c…

Pricing Carbon Allowance Options on Futures: Insights from High-Frequency Data
Leveraging a unique dataset of carbon futures option prices traded on the ICE market from December 2015 until December 2020, we present the results from an unprecedented calibration exercise. Within a multifactor stochastic volatility framework with jumps, we employ a three-dimensional pricing kernel compensating for equity and variance components' risk to derive an analytically tractable and numerically practical approach to pricing. To the best of our knowledge, we are the first to provide an…
