Environmental health, climate change, and equity: Understanding geographic vulnerabilities by Gina Solomon, Matthew Gribble, Sheri Weiser

“…This article will describe general principles of geography and climate change risk and explore how these play out using four examples: harmful algal blooms in Alaska, loss of glaciers in Peru, sea level rise causing increased drinking water salinity in Bangladesh, and HIV and food insecurity in Kenya related to extreme weather. The magnitude of the threat to humans from climate change will be significant, and geographic vulnerability is in many ways immutable, but much can still be done by humans to either increase or reduce risk. …”

Weather Radar Image Superresolution Using a Nonlocal Residual Network by Haoxuan Yuan, Qiangyu Zeng, Jianxin He

“…Accurate and high-resolution weather radar images reflecting detailed structure information of radar echo are vital for analysis and forecast of extreme weather. Typically, this is performed by using interpolation schemes, which only use several neighboring data values for computational approximation to get the estimated value regardless of the large-scale context feature of weather radar images. …”
