"You Know the Pyrenees by Day - Come See Them by Night..." Reflections on in visu Artialisation of Nocturnal Skyscapes in the Pyrenees by Bruno Charlier

“…What it seems to do is to bring out new landscapes that are not just "mountainscapes at night", or simply night-time versions of landscapes seen by day.The night skies that characterise these landscapes therefore represent an new category, they need to be considered in their entirety as conveying a meaning that encompasses all that is both construed and material in our relationships with landscape. …”

Observation and Numerical Simulation of Terrain-Induced Windshear at the Hong Kong International Airport in a Planetary Boundary Layer without Temperature Inversions by P. W. Chan, K. K. Hon

“…Moreover, the windshear detection algorithm as applied to the AVM output, called AVM-GLYGA, is able to give advance alert for the occurrence of low-level windshear. The model also offers new dataset, such as vertical velocity and vertical cross sections across the windshear feature, to study the terrain-induced windshear phenomena with new insights. …”

System architecture and key technologies of emergency command Internet of things by Qianbin CHEN, Guojun LI, Guoquan LI, Changrong YE

“…Emergency command Internet of things is an important part of the construction of smart cities.It is one of the application fields of the Internet of things,which benefits a wide range,require rich support technologies,drives the whole industry and has large demonstration effect of service.Starting from the construction of the disaster site rescue situation map,the emergency rescue command and command issue at the emergency incident site was focused.Referring to the joint search and rescue network in the battlefield and the tactical Internet system structure,the emergency command Internet of things system architecture was proposed,including body LAN,on-site command network and remote access network.The four key problems faced by the construction of emergency command the Internet of things was discussed,single soldier tracking and positioning,wearable vital signs monitoring,mobile self-organizing network and shortwave sky wave remote communication.The two scenarios of urban fire rescue and natural disaster rescue were used to analyze and design the integrated application system of the emergency command IoT system,which provided useful exploration for building a new generation of emergency command information system and promoting the construction of smart cities.…”
