Retrieval of NO2 Columns by Exploiting MAX-DOAS Observations and Comparison with OMI and TROPOMI Data during the Time Period of 2015–2019 by Ahmad Iqbal, Naveed Ahmad, Hassan Mohy ud Din, Michel Van Roozendael, Muhammad Shehzaib Anjum, Muhammad Zeeshan Ali Khan, Muhammad Fahim Khokhar

“…It is pertinent to mention that TROPOMI measurements can capture the local NO2 pollution much better than OMI and its predecessor instruments like GOME-2, SCIAMACHY and GOME. Seasonal trends of NO2 column densities have shown a peak in the winter season (November–January) while lowest NO2 column density is recorded in monsoon season.…”

The accuracy of forecasted hospital admission for respiratory tract infections in children aged 0–5 years for 2017/2023 by Fredrik Methi, Karin Magnusson, Karin Magnusson

“…We determined the accuracy of four different forecast models, all based on monthly hospital admissions and different assumptions regarding the pattern of virus transmission, computed with ordinary least squares regression adjusting for seasonal trends. We compared the observed vs. forecasted numbers of RTIs between October 31st, 2021, and May 31st, 2023, using metrics such as mean absolute error (MAE), mean absolute percentage error (MAPE) and dynamic time warping (DTW).ResultsIn our most accurate prediction, we assumed that the proportion of children who remained uninfected and non-hospitalized during the lockdown would be prone to hospitalization in the subsequent season, resulting in increased numbers when lockdown measures were eased. …”
