Constraining pre-industrial weather and climate variability with early instrumental and documentary data by Stefan Brönnimann

“…Large-scale temperature reconstructions based on documentary sources help to quantify variations in mean climate over the last 300–600 years and compare pre-industrial climate variability with recent trends. Using examples from Europe, East Asia, and North America, I show that early instrumental data and documentary data, combined with natural proxies, provide a perspective of regional and seasonal temperature variability in the pre-industrial era that is more detailed than hitherto possible, though still with limitations. …”

Simulation-based Prediction of Black Hole X-Ray Spectra and Spectral Variability by Rongrong Liu, Chris Nagele, Julian H. Krolik, Brooks E. Kinch, Jeremy D. Schnittman

“…Within the corona, the range of gas temperature spans more than 1 order of magnitude. The wide distribution of temperatures is central to defining the spectrum: the logarithmic spectral slope is harder by ∼0.3 and the cutoff energy larger by a factor ∼10–30 than if the coronal temperature everywhere were its mass-weighted mean.…”
