Persistent Upflows and Downflows at Active Region boundaries Observed by SUTRI and AIA
Upflows and downflows at active region (AR) boundaries have been frequently observed with spectroscopic observations at extreme ultraviolet (EUV) passbands. In this paper, we report the coexistence of upflows and downflows at the AR boundaries with imaging observations from the Solar Upper Transition Region Imager (SUTRI) and the Atmospheric Imaging Assembly (AIA). With their observations from 2022 September 21 to 2022 September 30, we find 17 persistent opposite flows occurring along the AR co…

Fascinating article: Shirley Tillotson, "Importing the Plantation: The Greater Caribbean Trade and Loyalist Nova Scotia’s Public Revenue, 1789–1835." It argues Nova Scotia's public expenditure was sustained by tariffs on goods produced by enslaved labour in the Caribbean. It undercuts trad narratives of small-scale fishing and farming as central to the colony's development while highlighting dependence on white supremacist modes of production.

The Amazon’s 2023 Drought: Sentinel-1 Reveals Extreme Rio Negro River Contraction
The Amazon, the world’s largest rainforest, faces a severe historic drought. The Rio Negro River, one of the major Amazon River tributaries, reached its lowest level in a century in October 2023. Here, we used a U-net deep learning model to map water surfaces in the Rio Negro River basin every 12 days in 2022 and 2023 using 10 m spatial resolution Sentinel-1 satellite radar images. The accuracy of the water surface model was high, with an F1-score of 0.93. A 12-day mosaic time series of the w…

Mobile Health Text Misinformation Identification Using Mobile Data Mining
More than six million people died of the COVID-19 by April 2022. The heavy casualties have put people on great and urgent alert and people try to find all kinds of information to keep them from being inflected by the coronavirus. This research tries to find out whether the mobile health text information sent to peoples devices is correct as smartphones becoming the major information source for people. The proposed method uses various mobile information retrieval and data mining technologies inc…

The other three tight ends on the Cowboys' roster were thrown at just 24 times all year. Among Dallas' tight ends, Ferguson drew 81 percent of the targets last season. By comparison, in 2022, Dalton Schultz had 89 targets (68.5% of total tight end targets) while the other three tight ends had a combined 41 targets (31.5%). Tha…

Finding product sets in some classes of amenable groups
In 2022, using methods from ergodic theory, Kra, Moreira, Richter, and Robertson resolved a longstanding conjecture of Erdős about sumsets in large subsets of the natural numbers. In this paper, we extend this result to several important classes of amenable groups, including all finitely generated virtually nilpotent groups, and all abelian groups $(G,+)$ with the property that the subgroup $2G := \{g+g : g\in G\}$ has finite index. We prove that in any group $G$ from the above classes, any $A…

On tight $(k,\ell)$-stable graphs
For integers $k>\ell\ge0$, a graph $G$ is $(k,\ell)$-stable if $α(G-S)\geq α(G)-\ell$ for every $S\subseteq V(G)$ with $|S|=k$. A recent result of Dong and Wu [SIAM J. Discrete Math., 36 (2022) 229--240] shows that every $(k,\ell)$-stable graph $G$ satisfies $α(G) \le \lfloor ({|V(G)|-k+1})/{2}\rfloor+\ell$. A $(k,\ell)$-stable graph $G$ is tight if $α(G) = \lfloor ({|V(G)|-k+1})/{2}\rfloor+\ell$; and $q$-tight for some integer $q\ge0$ if $α(G) = \lfloor ({

Heat, Health, and Habitats: Analyzing the Intersecting Risks of Climate and Demographic Shifts in Austrian Districts
The impact of hot weather on health outcomes of a population is mediated by a variety of factors, including its age profile and local green infrastructure. The combination of warming due to climate change and demographic aging suggests that heat-related health outcomes will deteriorate in the coming decades. Here, we measure the relationship between weekly all-cause mortality and heat days in Austrian districts using a panel dataset covering $2015-2022$. An additional day reaching $30$ degrees …
